AFCON 2027 in Kenya

Kenya combines the region’s most connected international airport with the Maasai Mara and the Kenyan coast, making it the natural base for supporters who want football and safari in one trip.

On the ground

Getting there, getting around

Airports and transport

Jomo Kenyatta International in Nairobi is the busiest hub of the three hosts and has the widest choice of direct flights from West, Central and Southern Africa. Mombasa is a second international gateway on the coast, and domestic flights between the two run frequently.

Match-day transport

We arrange airport transfers and transport to the ground for every booking. Once CAF confirms venues we coordinate match-day movement for your group directly — this is the part supporters most often underestimate in an unfamiliar city.

Travel tips

  • Nairobi is the easiest of the three hosts to reach directly — if you are combining countries, it is usually the cheapest place to start or finish.
  • The Maasai Mara is reachable by light aircraft in under an hour, which makes a safari feasible between match days rather than only after the tournament.
  • Nairobi sits at roughly 1,800m. Allow a day before anything strenuous.

Where to stay

We hold no published hotel inventory for the tournament period — host-city rates are not yet contracted, and a stadium-distance claim before CAF names a venue would be invented.

Entry requirements

Entry rules for Kenya depend on your passport, not your departure country, and tournament-period arrangements have not been announced. We confirm current requirements for your specific passport with your quote, and we always point you to the official source rather than restating rules that change.

Nothing here is contracted inventory: we publish no tournament rate and no availability. Star ratings come from the property, a booking platform or a national tourism board — each hotel’s page says which, and where the address came from.

The other hosts

Combine all three

AFCON 2027 is a joint tournament. Many supporters visit more than one host country in a single trip.

Zanzibar, Serengeti and the Indian Ocean

Tanzania

Tanzania offers the strongest holiday extension of the three hosts — Zanzibar’s beaches and the northern safari circuit are both within easy reach of the mainland gateways.

Plan my trip

The source of the Nile and gorilla country

Uganda

Uganda is the most compact of the three hosts, with Entebbe close to Kampala and adventure travel — rafting at Jinja, gorilla trekking in the southwest — within reach of a tournament trip.
