Having a driver in Kenya

I have been reading a lot about driving conditions in Kenya and was wondering how much having a personal driver will improve your traveling?

Hi there,
Are you looking at Monthly or per day rates ?

Thank you
ihave a car hire company i can give you one drive at 250$ per month
can I be able to secure drivers job on a monthly salary
I would recommend hiring a driver at least for the first two weeks. Then you will be able to judge whether you wish to continue with a driver or start driving yourself. Watch the YouTube documentary: "Don't Drive Here: Nairobi" - youtube.com/watch?v=p-jqmOb6GrI
It would help a lot. I know of a young reliable man who is looking for a job as a driver. His previous employer will be more than willing to give him a reference if you wish.

Hi, you can find good drivers, but you need take your time for find a corect person. Take information from people that you know, check drivinglisence, check if he has his own car, and insurance. Speak with people and ask info.
