Airline and stopovers
Ethiopian Airlines operates this route. Flights include one stopover, so it's not a direct journey. Example: departure from Brussels on 12 November at 21:20, arrival in Nairobi on 23 November at 17:25. Factor in connection time and the time difference (Nairobi is 3 hours ahead of Brussels in November).
Best time to travel
November is excellent: it falls within Kenya's long dry season with pleasant temperatures and minimal rain. Perfect for safaris and nature reserves. Prices tend to be reasonable because it's between peak seasons, December to February is when demand spikes.
What to do when you arrive
Nairobi is Kenya's gateway. From here, visit Nairobi National Park, the Giraffe Centre, or book safaris to Masai Mara or Amboseli. Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) is about 18 km from the city centre; buses, taxis and transfers are available. If you have time, explore neighbourhoods like Westlands and Karen for dining and local culture.
