A man has taken birthday celebrations to a new level by hiring an entire bus to cruise through Nairobi. The unusual party, captured in a video circulating online, has sparked curiosity and amusement among social media users.
In the video, the man is seen alone on the bus, which has been decorated with music systems, lights, and a Kenyan flag at the back. He enjoys the space, describing the experience as private and exclusive. The empty bus gives the impression of a luxury ride rather than public transport.
The bus travels along major roads, including the Nairobi Expressway, allowing the celebrant to enjoy both speed and scenic city views. He takes the viewers through the journey, showcasing the setup and the entertainment facilities inside. At several points, he compares the ride to flying in a private jet, adding a humorous twist to the celebration.
While the video does not reveal the cost or the company that provided the bus, hiring a 32- to 33-seater vehicle in Nairobi typically ranges between Ksh 25,000 and Ksh 30,000 for a full day. Smaller buses may cost around Ksh 20,000. These rates usually cover the driver, fuel, and about 12 hours of usage within the city.
Luxury buses, such as Mercedes or Yutong models, are more expensive, and rates can increase if the route extends beyond Nairobi. For a one-way trip along the expressway, the cost could be significantly lower, possibly around Ksh 4,000.
