Routes we run in Diani

Private transfer routes are listed for Diani, from Moi International Airport and Ukunda Airstrip: destinations include Tiwi, Diani Beach and Diani Beach. Each route has its own page with the distance, the drive time, the vehicles and the booking form; if your hotel is not named, book the nearest and tell the desk the exact address - the price is per vehicle and rarely changes for a nearby address.

Diani has no rail link; tuk-tuks and matatus run along Diani Beach Road, the Likoni ferry and the Dongo Kundu bypass connect the south coast with Mombasa, and short flights land at Ukunda Airstrip from Nairobi. A private car is the simplest choice with luggage for the long run from Moi International Airport, for a night arrival or for a day trip to Shimba Hills or Wasini.

Vehicles

Sedan for one to three passengers, minivan or GMC for up to seven, Sprinter for eight to thirteen; Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with proper luggage space. Child seats on request at no extra charge. The desk recommends the size once it knows how many of you there are and how many bags.

How the transfer works

You send the flight number, the date, the number of passengers and the hotel. The desk confirms the fixed price for the whole vehicle and the exact meeting point for the airport - it varies by terminal - with the driver's name and number. You choose flight tracking or a fixed pickup time, with up to 60 minutes of waiting included (90 at some airports). On the return, the driver collects you from the hotel with a margin for check-in.

Every booking is confirmed by a real person on our WhatsApp desk, in Arabic or English, with the price written down before anything is paid.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.

How much does a transfer from the airport to Diani cost?

Prices are fixed per vehicle and shown on each route page and in its booking form; the figure you see is the figure you pay, confirmed on WhatsApp before you travel. A family or group pays for the vehicle, not per person.

Where do I meet the driver at the airport?

It varies by airport and terminal: a set meeting point inside arrivals, a specific exit, or the driver with a name board just after customs. Your WhatsApp confirmation gives the exact place, the driver's name and a phone number.

What if my flight is delayed?

Nothing to do - every transfer is flight-tracked, the pickup moves with the real landing time, and waiting time is included.

Is the transfer private or shared?

Private. The vehicle carries your party only, from the arrivals door to your address, with no other passengers.

Which vehicle should I choose?

Sedan for up to three with normal luggage, minivan or GMC for up to seven, Sprinter for up to thirteen. If unsure, tell the desk the number of passengers and bags and it recommends one before you pay.

Do you provide child seats?

Yes - say the ages when you book and the driver brings the right seats or boosters at no extra charge.

Is there a bus, train or metro from the airport to Diani?

Diani has no rail link; tuk-tuks and matatus run along Diani Beach Road, the Likoni ferry and the Dongo Kundu bypass connect the south coast with Mombasa, and short flights land at Ukunda Airstrip from Nairobi. A private car is the simplest choice with luggage for the long run from Moi International Airport, for a night arrival or for a day trip to Shimba Hills or Wasini. For anyone with luggage, a family or a late flight, the private car is the simpler choice.

Can I book the return to the airport too?

Yes. Send the departure flight and the hotel; the driver collects you with a comfortable margin, and both directions sit on one confirmation.

Do you run transfers to other cities from Diani?

Yes - intercity transfers by private car or van are booked the same way; tell the desk the destination and it quotes a fixed price for the whole vehicle.

Which language does the driver speak?

It depends on the country, the city and the time of the transfer, so we do not promise a particular language. Tell us your preference and we do our best; the WhatsApp desk always works in Arabic and English.

How and when do I pay?

After the written confirmation, never before. The desk explains the payment options on WhatsApp once the price, the vehicle and the meeting point are confirmed.

Can I change or cancel?

Yes, in the same WhatsApp conversation. The terms depend on how close to the pickup the change comes, and the desk states them before any payment.
