Travelling in Kenya
When we all think of safaris, one place will always spring to mind: Kenya, along with its picturesque scenes and huge array of wildlife just waiting to be explored along the roads and dirt tracks. Just jump into your car and travel the delights it has to offer.
If you are moving to the wonderful country, but are contemplating whether bringing your car along is worth the bother, then the answer is of course yes! With car transport companies like US car support making the hard work a lot easier for you, the dream of travelling around Kenya in your own car can become a reality.
While taking your car along the paved roads in Kenya, it is worth noting that there are also a number of unpaved roads waiting to be explored, meaning that if you have a four wheel drive, this would be the perfect place to spread your wings and explore.
Although while having a car can be fun, it is worth pointing out that it is not all smooth roads by any means. Road upkeeps can be little to none, so if your car is worth a lot of money, it may be worth your while grabbing some public transport.
If you escape to Kenya for your ultimate get-away vacation, you can always get the bus to your destination, with 25,000 busses available, the majority of Kenya relies on a bus to get around. Travelling around via bus can generally be the cheapest means necessary, particularly as the government and bus companies maintain their short and long distance lines, with costs being as little as $1.30 for a journey lasting an hour. You may not see a timetable, as many busses leave when they are full, or take the same journey a few times a day, something you will get used to the longer you stay.
You can also board a Matatu, which is the African means of transport (public minibuses painted in bright colors). You will more likely see them running in populated areas, and more often than not you will hear them before you see them with their loud benga or rap music blearing through the speakers. A journey from the Matatu will set you back 40 cents for as far as you need to go.
After dark, you would be advised to take a taxi to reach your destination. They may be well-kept cars or close to breaking down vehicles, probably best to pick carefully. They don’t have meters so you will need to negotiate a price before setting off for your destination. It may be worth remembering that with rising petrol prices, the driver will need to make a living, so don’t be too hard when negotiating.
