Hi....I am in the Uk and planning on visiting Kenya for a 2 week safari
at
the end of september.

I need a VISA for kenya for a single entry...whats the best way to do it?

I understand that the Kenyan High Comission needs 3 working days for a
personal application in london and a 5 day application for a postal
application, but I will be needing my passport for european travel
between
now and a week before I am due to fly to kenya

How painless ( or as I suspect, painful) is it to get a Kenyan Visa on
arrival in Nairobi??

London is a 300 mile round trip that i need to make twice to get a visa
personally.

all help appreciated!!!


I've always got mine from the Embassy in advance, but it is no
problem, and apparently sometimes only a slight delay - though I've
always seen long queues in July - to get the visa at the airport.

Thanks for the useful responses..I will have 10 days after returning from
europe before i leave to get my visa..I'd rather avoid getting one at the
airport :-)



It`s up to you but I wouldn`t risk it, there really is no problem with
getting it at Jomo Kenyatta ( Nairobi airport)
