Driving yourself in a rental car might be a cheaper and flexible option but the safest and most convenient way to explore any destination is with a professional chauffeur or guide. Whether you wish to tour Kampala city, visit a national park, popular attraction or require an airport transfer or want a car to attend a an important event like conference meeting or wedding, you will get to your destination in time, safely and comfortably when you hire a chauffeur to handle the driving. Just sit back, relax and let your personal driver take you wherever you want.

Below are 4 reasons why booking a chauffeur or safari guide is the best option most especially if it’s your first time in Uganda.

Route & Attraction Knowledge

Uganda is a large country with up to 10 national parks and other popular local attractions situated in various districts which makes getting around a little bit harder especially if it your first time. You could rent a GPS but it can’t be as efficient as an experienced person who knows the place very well. An experienced driver knows his way around the city, national parks, villages as well as accommodation establishments including safari lodges, hotels, guest houses, inns and apartments. A chauffeur will offer you background info and latest updates about any place or site you are visiting or just bypassing. He knows the best route to a bank, nearby shopping mall, restaurant, forex bureau among other venues that might be of your interest.

Comfort

Exploring Uganda with a chauffeur offers you all the comfort you need since you don’t have to worry about driving. From carrying luggage, fixing a mechanical breakdown to open the door for you; you will get the quality service worth every dollar you pay. Your driver will ensure you travel like a King catering for all your personal needs in the best way possible.

Car & Fuel Costs Knowledge

You might know how to drive the car but no one knows it better than a professional driver who has the car before. From mechanical conditional, terrain capabilities to fuel consumption, he will be able to handle any problem that comes along the road trip. A tourist on self drive trip will not estimate the fuel needed per distance which is a piece of cake to a person who has been around and knows the shortest route possible amount of fuel needed to travel to each destination. A litre of diesel and petrol in Uganda currentlyt costs between US$ 1 to 1.5.

Freedom to work and interact

One of the best advantages of using chauffeur services is the fact you get all the time and space to work and interact with friends and family during a road trip leaving all the driving responsibilities to your guide or driver. You can just sit back with your laptop, phone or favorite book as you are taken to your destination which won’t be the case on a self drive road trip.
