17 November 2025, Berlin: Blacklane, the global chauffeur service, has launched operations in Tunis and Nairobi, scaling its world-class premium mobility to two of Africa’s most dynamic cities.
The expansion marks a key step in Blacklane’s continued international growth, connecting travelers in both North and East Africa with seamless, reliable mobility and first-class guest service.
René van Olst, CEO EMEA & APAC, Blacklane commented:
“2025 has been a record-breaking year of growth for Blacklane. Far more than adding dots to the map, we partner with local professional chauffeurs to connect them to international travelers booking via a trusted global brand. Our expansion into Tunis and Nairobi is just the start of our roll-out across this rapidly evolving continent.”
In Tunis, Blacklane introduces First, Business and Van options, including longer city-to-city journeys. The expansion reflects Tunis’s growing role as a regional hub for both business and leisure travel, offering Blacklane’s trusted global service standards for conferences, events, meetings and holidays.
Nairobi is Blacklane’s first entry into East Africa, offering its Business and Van classes with a focus on airport transfers and chauffeurs by-the-hour, designed to meet the needs of the city’s thriving corporate, diplomatic, and tourism sectors.
With these additions, Blacklane continues to grow its footprint in Africa, joining existing operations in South Africa and other cities around the world. Present in over 50 countries, the expansion brings chauffeur services to regions with growing demand for business travel and a thriving tourism economy.
