Namanga is a border town divided by the boundary between Kenya and Tanzania; its Kenyan side lies in Kajiado County, in the former Rift Valley Province, and its Tanzanian side in Longido District. The Wikipedia article places it about 110 kilometres from Arusha and 183 kilometres from Nairobi, and says that its economy has depended heavily on tourism since 2004 because visitors to Amboseli National Park pass through it.
