Inform the conductor that you wish to get off at the turn-off for Ol Kinyei Conservancy. Once you reach the turn-off (approximately 20 kilometers from Loita Plains), you will need to arrange for a taxi or walk the remaining 5 kilometers along the dirt road to the conservancy entrance. Be aware that the availability of taxis may vary, and it's advisable to negotiate a fare beforehand, which should be around 1000 KES.
