There is a range of single and twin engine aircraft offering a minimum of three passengers seats and up to 27. All principal lodges and tented camps have their own airstrips suitable for light aircraft. The establishment then provides vehicles for hire by those who arrive by air, while within the area. To avoid the rough roads to some interior areas like the Masai Mara and Amboseli, scheduled flights have been designed to serve the important tourist destination areas within the country by small private airline companies and also the national carrier, Kenya Airways. Kenya Airways is now in partnership with KLM, the Royal Dutch Airline, and flies in schedules to major cities in Europe, daily e.g. London, Amsterdam, Stockholm, etc.
Trunk roads connecting major towns are bitumen and up to the Western European standards.
Majority of the country side roads are earth and dusty. Tourists are excited about the natural, rugged roads and believe that you never went on safari if you did not get dusty or if your car did not stall in the mud until you had to push it. Without doubt the most popular method of tourist transport in Kenya by road is the minibus, it is as if it was designed for safari. They have high ground clearance, are exceptionally manoeverable and offer all round vision. Mobile homes and caravans are not available.
