You need a car to drive around, have a tour to different national parks or to transport your cargo?  Then getting a car in Uganda is much easier. Car hire helps reduce the burden of waiting for the public transportation, waste much time or even spend much. This is done through a travel company with perfect knowledge of the country’s terrain, nature of the roads and self-drive laws. If not, then the car hire companies do equally release their cars for clients.

What to note?

Though the Ugandan roads are relatively in good condition, most up country access roads are Murram and hard to use during the rainy seasons-march to May and October to November.

It is expected that all those behind the steering wheel abide by the traffic rules. Maintain the left side of the road while in any part of the country, respect other road users, keep the authorized driving speed as illustrated on different road signs and call for help in case of any breakdown.

You can hire a car for self-drive to upcountry areas, around the city to foreigners, or the destinations in the Democratic Republic of Congo.  These cars include; a 4 seater saloon car such as the corolla, caldina, or corona, a 7 seater safari jeep, 4WD land cruisers, 14 seater minibus, bus, 7/8 seater van, 67 seater bus, 28 seater coaster and many more. The vehicles come with either sliding roofs or pop-up roofs, large legroom for comfort of the guests and air conditioners. On request, you can be given an English-speaking guide, with a great wealth of knowledge regarding the different destinations around the country and the city.

Cars for hire don’t come with fuel and stick to the agreed hired time. They are fully insured and monitored from the time of release until return. When you rent for long days like 7 plus, a discount is given.

Car hire rates depend on the type of car, number of days and areas to be visited. Roughly, a Safari SUV 4WD cost about 90USD per day; Safari Van 4WD about 80Usd per day, a 28 seater bus for roughly 110usd and many more. These rates are subject to changes depending on the time of arrival nd other factors.
