Preparing for the arrival
Volunteering in Kenya through our organization will be an exhilarating, horizon-widening time. You will find new friends and take on new challenges, experiencing a different way of life while you do so. To make the most of this opportunity, it is a good idea to make sure that you are

ic transport in Kenya. After you have been in Kenya for a couple of days and you are starting to feel more confident, you’ll find you want to explore the local area or get to the supermarket or an ATM. You may also need to take public transport to reach your placement project. If this is the case, one of the Kenyan team will accompany you for your first couple of days, until you are happy making the trip without them. TUK TUK and Matatus are the most common means of transport in Mombasa. They are often “pimped out” with neon lights, TV screens, and speakers, and they are a cheap and entertaining way to travel. You can also opt to use the Ubber or Bolt App (ordering tax through the app online). Ubber and Bolt are so common in Mombasa, safest especially when you are new and you don't know the exact prices and places to visit, I recommend you use ubber. Even from the airport in case you feel like passing by somewhere before being picked up by us, use the ubber or Bolt app. The moment you use normal tax and you don't know how to bargain, they may charge you double or triple the normal prices. When you are using public means of transport, whether it's volunteers or even us the locals, be aware that due to the cramped conditions and many passengers, there is always a risk of pickpocketing. Avoid taking valuables or large sums of cash on a means of public transport. For longer journeys, we recommend organizing travel with the Kenyan team, who can arrange for you to be driven to your destination by one personal car/Van
Kindly Note that Commuting to the project site is on a personal account for all volunteers above 18yrs and our local staff from the volunteer house/Homestay by a public transport system which is very easily affordable and Uber can also be cost-shared when traveling with more than 3 volunteers, apart from Minors of below 18 yrs who must be accompanied by one of our staff in charge at UCESCO or other adult volunteers staying together.
