Car Hire in Kasarani, Nairobi

Car hire delivered across Kasarani

Kasarani is one of Nairobi's fastest-growing areas — a sprawling, mostly residential zone strung along the Thika Superhighway on the north-eastern side of the city. New apartment blocks, gated estates and shopping centres have transformed the neighbourhood over the last decade, and its population has grown just as quickly. What has not kept pace is easy, reliable transport, which is exactly where a hire car changes the picture.

Anapa Car Rentals delivers and collects vehicles right across the Kasarani area, including Sunton, Hunters, Mwiki, Santon, Clay City, Mountain View, Seasons and the estates around Sportsview and the stadium. Wherever you are between the Roysambu roundabout and Kasarani, we bring the car to your gate at no extra cost within our service area.

Tell us the vehicle and the dates, and we handle the rest — a clean, fuelled and fully insured car delivered to your door, and collected again when you are finished. No queueing at a depot, no long trip across the city just to pick up keys.

Beat the Thika Road commute

Anyone who lives in Kasarani knows the daily reality of Thika Road. The superhighway is fast when it flows and frustrating when it does not, and depending on matatus for a work commute into the CBD, Westlands or Upper Hill can mean long waits and unpredictable journeys, especially in the rain.

Having your own car takes back control of your day. With self-drive hire you leave when you need to, take the route you prefer, and run errands on the way home without waiting for the next matatu. For those who would rather not fight the traffic themselves, our chauffeur service lets you answer emails or rest while an experienced local driver handles the road.

For visiting workers and anyone posted to Kasarani for a stretch, we arrange weekly and monthly hire at rates that work out far cheaper and far more comfortable than a daily commute by cab.

Made for events at Kasarani Stadium

Kasarani is home to the Moi International Sports Centre, the largest stadium in the country and the venue for major football matches, athletics meets, international concerts, conferences and large religious gatherings. When there is an event on, the whole area fills up, and getting to and from the stadium on time takes planning.

We help event-goers, performers and organisers move smoothly on big days. Hire a chauffeur-driven car so you are dropped at the gate and picked up without hunting for parking in the crowds, or book a larger vehicle to keep a group together. For teams, artists and delegates flying in for an event, we can have a car and driver waiting at the airport and on hand throughout the visit.

Ideal for students and growing families

The Kasarani corridor is a student hub, anchored by USIU-Africa and close to several other colleges, so there is a steady flow of young people and visiting parents who need transport for a day, a weekend or the start and end of a semester. An affordable sedan is perfect for airport runs, moving in and out of hostels, or simply getting around without relying on ride apps.

It is also very much a family neighbourhood. For school runs, shopping trips to Thika Road Mall and Garden City, weekend outings and visits upcountry, a comfortable SUV gives families the space and reliability they need. Whatever the trip, we match you to a well-kept vehicle that suits it.

Airport transfers and weekend getaways from Kasarani

Kasarani's position on Thika Road makes it well placed for trips out of the city. Via the Eastern and Northern bypasses we provide fixed-price transfers between Kasarani and Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), with flight tracking and a meet-and-greet so your pickup is never in doubt, however early or late your flight.

The same road opens up the countryside. With a self-drive car from Kasarani you can be in Thika in minutes, or push on to Mt Kenya, Nanyuki, Nyeri or the Aberdares for the weekend — and our SUVs and 4x4s are ready when the tarmac runs out.

Parking and access around the stadium

On event days at the Moi International Sports Centre, access roads around the stadium are managed and parking fills early, so the practical advice is simple. Arrive well ahead of the crowd if you are self driving, or book a chauffeur driven vehicle and be dropped at the gate. Away from event days the area is quiet and parking is straightforward, with the local shopping centres offering secure spaces for a small fee.

Popular drives from Kasarani

Kasarani sits along the Thika Road corridor with the bypasses close at hand, which opens up the north and east without crossing the city.

1. The CBD — south on the superhighway, slow during the morning rush.
2. Thika town — a quick run north once you are on the main carriageway.
3. JKIA — the Eastern Bypass, far quicker than going through town.
4. Mt Kenya and Nanyuki — north on the A2, around three hours.
5. Fourteen Falls — a short detour off the Thika road for an easy day trip.

Kasarani has grown rapidly and its estates spread well back from the main road, which shapes how people get about.

• Event days at the stadium change the traffic completely — plan around them.
• Estate access roads favour higher-clearance vehicles after rain.
