Sema unaenda tu pale Namanga past Kajiado na uwache kutuchocha eti ni TZ.

I believe driving personal car vrs somebody else car across border is not exactly the same.

beba mimi nikusho every kona TZ

Ninaomba ushahuri kuhusu maswala ya uhamiaji ( immigration / crossing border requirements) peke yake.

The rest i can sort out.

Chunga kudetainiwa Kenyans are not very popular over there.

Hehehe.

Nimeona Mhshimiwa Charles Keter , Energy CS alikuwa detained kule Tanga kabla kuwa deported.

That is why ninatafuta ushauri kutoka kwa wale ambao wamewahi kusafiri kwa magari yao ya kibinafsi kutoka Kenya kuingia TZ.

This link does not answer my very clear and specific question.

If you are being accompanied by okuyu make sure ako na certificate of good conduct otherwise hataingia:D

from my neck of the woods, the definition of a “personal” in relation to a car ni ngari ndogo…ka saloon hivi hivi:D:D. So my advice is you look for a 4X4. The ride is more comfortable :smiley:

You know we have a Tanzanian embassy in Kenya. That’s why they have one in the country to answer and assist in answering this and many other questions. Or just go to their website and all the answers to your questions you’ll get there.

the whole point of this thread by @Jakoyo was to tell [SIZE=1]us ako na gari[/SIZE].

Major roads in TZ are smoothly tamacked.

I also know that i can get advice from folks who have done that.

FYI - I have 3 personal cars. Two in Nrb. One in mashinani. Hope that helps .
