Arriving for My Kenya Tour

I finally landed in Nairobi's main airport - Jommo Kenyatta Airport - to start my Kenya tour after two long flights, with only a few hours break between them at London's Heathrow Airport.
I had learnt from a blog run by a person who tours Kenya regularly - which I gained access to by entering the search term 'travel Kenya' that I would have to get a taxi to the city center - which is a considerable distance away from the airport as there is no rail connection to the airport - though I came to learn that there is actually a bus service to the city center which the guy who tours Kenya regularly (and whose blog I accessed by entering what I considered a relevant Internet search term 'tours Kenya') seems not to know of.
My impression of Nairobi's airport is that is a very formal place, with plenty of security and control to such an extend that even the taxi drives are wary of hustling for business, unless you make it really clear that you are looking for their services.
The arrivals lounge was abuzz with people though, and it was fun to see people reuniting with relatives and friends whom the hadn't seen for very long.
The first thing I learnt on my Kenya tour from the reactions at the airport's arrivals lounge is that flights are taken rather different in Africa than in the west, and as I came to learn later on in my Kenya tour, for the average person in this part, getting to travel even once in an airplane in one's lifetime is considered something of an achievement.
