What does duty free have to do with left or right hand? So if you don't own a left hand car to sell, do you still bring one in duty free?

BBI will solve it

The rule was you have to own the car for 1 year before you can import it duty free - a challenge for LHD countries. I know afew people who have bought RHD and keeping in their compounds to send home after 1 year.
Possibly the new rules have dropped the 1 year requirement??

Simply means if you are a returning Kenyan eligible for a duty free car but cant due to RHD/LHD issues, you can sell your current car , then buy a similar one and enjoy duty free.

very helpful information: What about Arusha, what are the best pubs & restaurants there? I intend to make the loop round the lake victoria sort of.

Maasai camp is OK, if you are driving, it's like a small "carnivore" in the late nineties, you go towards and past arusha airport kitu 25minutes from town, they also have a carnivore on the same route so don't confuse, in town there is club AQ, hiyo ni kama F-terere without too many/noticable langas, nice, via via is the classy joint, you pay entrance na kuna "dress code" beer is a bit more expensive, like a kasmall "pavement club" ya westie used to be except dress code. Then there are some seedy joints inside town za watu kuokota TZ fish, yuk! I recommend carrying your own "chipo" from Nairobi if you want club there, also brush shoulder with kawaida mwanainchi and take mitori, vitafuna, chips mayai, supu ya minofu e.t.c in kawaida joints, very relaxing and clean food everywhere, guys are very clean when it comes to food, no "rotten" things thrown in your plate anywhere like nairobi.

@pablo,lemi hijack your thread and share my experience

day one in kigali, was tired and didn't do much attended live band at Hotel Des Mille Collines by Kempinski and it was awesome courtesy of hope from tpf6. that was on wednesday.

day two, that is friday ,started with Papyrus, its an uptown club, very relaxed and chilled, more of a social meeting place for the uppper-middle , ambience is good and the food,lakini parking is disaster.

at the basement there is a new club known as Envy, very nice,ambience,music but the entrance fee is around kshs 600, worth checking it out.

ended the night at the famous KBC, @swenani, this is your place, very many people of out and very few customers,and the club is not stinky,so not bad if you are looking for them. club entrance fee is Ksh 250. but the people of out are expensive, if you want chips funga whole night, you need around kshs 5000 to 7000.

rwandanese are very relaxed and not in a hurry and not rowdy as kenyans in a club but what i liked is the fact that they go out from 12 midnight, guys leave workplace, go home,freshen up, and then they start clubbing from 12 midnight. if you go out at around 9 to 10pm, utajipata peke yako.
