Areas we cover

Where you can ride with Ollo

Pickups and drop-offs need to be inside Ollo's Nairobi zone. Trips can be up to 40 km. See the zone map

Taxi in Nairobi CBD

Around Kenyatta Avenue, Moi Avenue and KICC the roads jam fast — a Bike gets you through quickly, or book a car and wait somewhere easy for your driver to stop. Your pickup is your current location.

Taxi in Westlands

Offices, Sarit Centre, Westgate and a busy evening scene. Late-night rides are covered — Ollo runs 24/7, and a night extra, when it applies, is already in the price you see before you book.

Taxi in Kilimani

Around Yaya Centre and Argwings Kodhek Road. Add up to 2 stops before you book — a school run, a shop, then home — and the price covers the whole route.

Taxi in Karen

Longer trips across leafy roads to places like The Hub Karen. Reserve from 30 minutes up to 30 days ahead for early starts, paid by M-Pesa or card when you reserve.

Taxi in Ruaka

Rides between Ruaka, Two Rivers and town. Pick OLLO XL with 6 seats for a group or a shopping trip with bags.

Taxi on Thika Road

Garden City, Thika Road Mall and the estates along the highway. Share your live trip with family so they can see where you are until you arrive.

Taxi on Mombasa Road

Offices, malls and estates along Mombasa Road and the Expressway corridor. If heavy traffic makes a trip run much longer than expected, a per-minute charge applies only after a free buffer — and it's on your receipt.

Taxi to JKIA

Rides to and from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, any time of day. A real quote from Nairobi CBD was KES 672 for Mini (Car) on 26 Oct 2026. JKIA airport rides
