Kenya Driver License

[Christain Cobb]

Yourexperienced driver-guide will get you to your destination safely and is responsible for keeping the car in good condition. Besides driving you to where you want to go, your private driver takes you on game drives in safari parks, knows the best restaurants to stop for lunch, and helps you find the best places to stock up on supplies. He can also help you fine-tune your itinerary along the way and recommend activities, nice campsites and lodges to stay at during your travels in Kenya. Yet, you remain in charge of your own holiday and itinerary.

As our drivers are keen to share their knowledge about Kenya, feel free to ask them anything. You'll return home with a deeper understanding of the country and will have made a new friend along the way.

Are you going camping? Then we'll supply your driver with camping gear. As there are no facilities to eat elsewhere inside the national parks, we appreciate that you factor in your driver when grocery shopping and cooking your meals together. Most drivers are pretty good bush cooks and will be able to help you start a campfire.

Additional costs for your driver are the national park entrance- & camp fees, varying from $5 - $15/day depending on the park or conservancy. Do also note that fuel remains at your own expense. Your Kenya rental car is delivered to you with a full tank, and should be filled up again when returned.

We own all our rental cars and never subcontract from third parties. Our fleet consists of Toyota Landcruisers - all reliable and widely used 4WD vehicles, and perfectly suitable for your adventurous Kenya roadtrip.

The role of drivers is very important when creating memorable holiday memories. As both a driver and tour guide, they need to be knowledgeable, flexible, create a sense of safety, and be great companions. After all, a good sense of humor and some laughs contribute to making the world a better place, right? We are happy and proud to say that we consistently receive glowing reviews from roadtrippers renting a car in Kenya with our drivers!

However, I was not able to find how this relates to the graduated licensing program of the Canadian province of Ontario. In Ontario, obtaining the full license for regular automobiles (class G license) takes a minimum of 20 months, during which time after a written test you will hold first a class G1 license for at least 8 or 12 months, then by passing a road test hold a class G2 license for at least 12 months before completing a further road test to obtain the full class G license. Holders of the G1 license are only permitted to drive certain hours and generally not on freeways and must always be accompanied by an experienced driver (minimum 4 years with class G). Holders of the G2 license are under more minor restrictions.

Looking for tips to have when hiring a private driver in Kenya? In this article, I have shared crucial tips to have when hiring a driver including steps on how to hire a driver.

Among our travel options when on your safari in Kenya is hiring a private driver who will also act as a guide. For some travelers without an active license in their resident home countries or who are not comfortable going on self-drive safaris, this could be their only chance to explore the vast wildlife parks and watch animals in their natural habitats.

At Kambu Campers, we have a list of up to 10 freelance drivers that you can also consider if you are unable to find one yourself. All of them are also trained tour guides and can also act as security. Just let us know and we can share a few profiles.

To operate a light truck or van, the driver must possess a B, C, or C1 license, which should be indicated on the license document. When you meet the driver, you can request them to log into their Ecitizen account. This will allow you to verify the validity of their license and confirm whether they are authorized to operate vehicles classified as Class B, C, or C1.

If you prefer a driver who has been trained to carry a public transport vehicle, you can ask the driver if they have a PSV badge. To get a PSV badge, a driver needs to do additional training and pass a test administered by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA). This ensures that they are qualified to transport passengers safely.

During the interviews, you can also have a quick driving test run to assess their driving skills and see if they are a good fit for your needs. This will also give you a chance to check the condition of the vehicle they will be using.

Once you have found a suitable driver who meets all legal requirements, it is important to communicate your expectations clearly. This will help avoid any misunderstandings and ensure a smooth working relationship with your driver.

Make sure you take the time to get to know your potential driver, as a wrong hire may make your trip unpleasant. They need to be able to communicate with you in English and understand what you need from them.

Before you hire a driver, it is important that you set out some ground rules to avoid any possible misunderstandings during the trip. For example, decide who will pay for fuel and other road costs such as tolls, agree on acceptable rest stops, and make sure that your driver is aware of any special needs you may have.

When you hire a driver, it is important to agree on the payment upfront and to sign a contract that both of you understand. It is also good practice to agree on a daily rate so that the driver can plan their day accordingly and make sure they have enough money for fuel, meals, and other expenses.
