Traveler advice

Getting around

Uber & bolts are the fastest way to get around

- Ubers / Bolts would arrive at the home in matter of minutes after request. - Taxis are also good options to get around. (Usually costs more than the Ubers/ Bolts) Trotros (Mini Buses) - These are the most popular local transport vehicles. They drive specific routes between point A and point B. A foreigner/ tourist must know the route & destination or better still get help from a local before using them as means of transport.
