What is an SGR transfer from Mombasa?

When you arrive at Mombasa SGR Station (officially the Mombasa Terminus, located at Miritini), you need ground transport to your final destination on the coast. The station is 15km from Mombasa island and up to 120km from popular destinations like Malindi. SGR Shuttle Mombasa provides pre-booked shared shuttle transfers that connect directly with SGR train arrivals β€” so your driver is waiting at the exit when you walk off the train.

Unlike touts at the station who charge inconsistent fares, all our prices are fixed and displayed upfront. You book online before you board the train in Nairobi, pay via M-Pesa, and receive instant confirmation. No negotiating, no uncertainty.

Shared-seat fares are per person and take you to the route's town stage. Where a door-to-door price is shown beneath it, that is the fixed total for the same seat delivered to your own address β€” you choose between them at checkout and neither price changes on arrival. Private saloon (1–3 passengers) and private minivan (4–7 passengers) are per vehicle for the whole route, and are the same rates shown on each destination page and on private transfers. Group discount: 5% to 10% off for groups above 6 passengers, applied automatically at checkout. Last-mile add-ons (tuk-tuk/boda) available for Kilifi, Watamu, Malindi, and past Ukunda.
