Internet Access

Without Your Own Computer

Internet cafes in major tourist spots and in the towns and cities are easy to find. Hotels and lodges are increasingly offering Internet access to their guests, though this is usually more expensive than a street-side cafe. Although connection speeds from landlines can be slow, satellite speeds are continually increasing and the cost is lowering; expect to pay little more than $1 per hour.

With Your Own Computer

Wi-Fi is catching on in Kenya and is already accessible at the airports and in the Java chain of coffee shops. If you're bringing electrical equipment from the U.S., you'll need a current adapter as well as a converter.
