In Uganda transport is affordable and available. You can travel across Uganda by Bicycles, self drive, taxis, by bus or by plane.
By air: There are small airlines that offer scheduled and charter flights between destinations, but this could prove costly. By bus: Buses connect to larger towns, while the Ugandan postal service minibuses travel from Kampala to all major centres several times a week. Self-drive: Roads link most major centres in the Southern part of Uganda, but some require four-wheel drive vehicles. It is best to enquire where you can drive with your car or your rental vehicle before you set off. Rental cars: Car hire companies are based at the Entebbe Airport and around the city centre, the capital Kampala and some major towns. Drivers need an international drivers licence. Taxis: Most locals get around by sharing privately owned minibuses. You pay a fixed price before you leave, which will not happen until the “taxi” is full. They are pretty active between the airport and Kampala. Boda Bodas: Kampala town boasts some bicycle taxis called “boda-boda”. But you have to negotiate your price before you hop on. |
