How to
hire a car:
Before
hiring a car in Nairobi, it is
important to put into considerations:-
-
The purpose of hire-business?,
Family? Leisure, occasion or prestige? Haulage? or to replace your
broken down car?
-
Destination>Where will you be
ravelling to? Are you going to be within the city or will you go
upcountry? Will you keep on main roads or will you go off? NB:
Within towns a standard economy car will do. A
Toyota RAV 4,
Toyota Prado,
Pajero i/o or similar will do in moderate corrugation.
However if you are going to the North-beyond Archers, post get a real
Toyota land cruiser. For the weddings, Mercedes Limousine, Stretch
limos and Prados are a preferred brands. We provide these with
drivers.
