While public transport means are cheaper and sometimes reliable, they aren’t ideal for safaris if you hope to have a wonderful road trip. Just the thrill and excitement of driving in a foreign country can’t be hidden but keep in mind that it is also overwhelming. However, most tourists prefer Uganda car rentals for safaris and having a personal car is about to open up a whole different World of possibilities.
It is undeniable that some safari destinations are just wonderful and perfect for exploring via a personal car than others. It would pay a lot to rent a car for discovering the National Parks and Wildlife Reserves in Uganda but visiting top Cities and Towns don’t require having a Rental Car. However, these are the 7 genuine reasons why you won’t regret travelling with a Car Rental;

Given the numerous stops to pick and drop passengers, public transport means always take twice the normal time for getting to final destinations.

Do you know that majority of Uganda’s safari destinations are in remote places and definitely not within the City limits? This is where you will be glad for renting a car because there is possibility of driving several distances from phenomenal surroundings.

For instance if you are driving to Murchison falls National Park, it is possible to incorporate a trip to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and if travelling to Kasese (Queen Elizabeth National Park), having a Rental car makes it possible to make a stop at Lake Mburo National Park and other wonderful tourist sites along the way.
Flexibility
What would you do if you desired to discover other places that aren’t part of the itinerary? This wouldn’t be an issue if you are using a Rental Car because you can always make a detour and explore beautiful and irresistible places without sticking to a certain program. Additionally, it is possible to make stops whenever you wish without any restrictions as it is with public transport means.

Worse still, most public buses don’t really have air-conditioners.
