How Pictor Travels Enhances Your Marathon Experience

We understand that your journey to the Kilimanjaro Marathon is just as important as the race itself. That’s why we offer a range of services to ensure your trip is smooth, comfortable, and stress-free.

• Nairobi (city hotel or NBO/JKIA Airport) to/from Moshi: Start your journey with our reliable and comfortable transfer services in Kenya, whether you’re traveling solo or in a group. We have a variety of vehicles for private transfers or you can book a public shared shuttle bus.
• Airport Pickups and Drop-offs: Arrive and depart without a worry—our drivers are punctual, professional, and knowledgeable.

Private Transfers

These are convenient transfers between Nairobi (city hotel or NBO airport) and Arusha or Moshi in Tanzania. Unlike public shared transfers, private transfers are quite flexible. You are able to move at any time you wish and you will determine exact pick-up and drop-off points.

Public Transfers

Book a daily public shared shuttle bus that starts at Nairobi City through NBO/JKIA airport to Arusha and Moshi. There are also daily return buses from Moshi and Arusha to Nairobi. However, the buses follow a timetable and have specific pick-up and drop-off points. Be sure to indicate in your booking how close you are to a pick-up or drop-off point, if nearby, the driver will go there, otherwise we will advise how to connect.

Optional Safari Adventures

Why not turn your marathon trip into the ultimate East African adventure? Extend your stay and explore Tanzania’s world-famous wildlife destinations:

• Serengeti National Park: Witness the Great Migration and the Big Five.
• Ngorongoro Crater: Discover one of the most biodiverse places on Earth.
• Tarangire National Park: Marvel at its massive elephant herds and ancient baobab trees.

Our tailor-made safari packages are designed to complement your marathon experience, giving you the chance to relax, recharge, and explore after the race.
