A guard who is checked, trained and supervised is worth far more than one who is not. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Pre-book airport and daily transport. - Limit what you carry and show. - Share your schedule with one person. Quick answer Most business trips to Nairobi go smoothly when you plan transport, keep a low profile and share your itinerary with a colleague. Book your airport pick-up in advance, use known drivers, avoid displaying phones and laptops on the street, and consider an escort for evenings, long drives or high-value meetings.
