Boda-boda is a motorcycle with driver that brings you where you want to go. Quite cheap, always try to bargain.
The white taxi-vans, called Matatu, are more for the main roads , driving from village to village. Just put out your hand on the side of the road and you can always drive along (with many others :)).
You can always rent a car but we advice not to. Traffic is chaos and we drive on the left side of the road.
