Why Rent a Car With a Driver for your trip in Uganda
While there is a thrill that comes with self driving in Uganda, it may not be every ones cup of tea. For many tourists, renting a car with a driver is a better option and this is why.
Travel with No Liabilities

This means that you are completely free from any possible liabilities. Knowing you have nothing to worry about whatsoever increases your travel enjoyment.
Concentrate on the Adventure
Having to drive while on adventure holiday means you have divided attention. A part of you is craving for the sightings, picture opportunities etc while the other must navigate the challenging Ugandan roads. To fully concentrate and enjoy your adventure we recommend you hire a driver along with your rented car and fully immerse into adventure.
Adhere to Authority guidelines.
While its not illegal to embark on a self drive safari, the Uganda Tourism Board, the tourism regulator, advises against self drive especially for first time visitors. This is in recognition of the challenges that driving on Uganda’s roads can prove to first time visitors. Many or the roads have potholes, are slippery, are poorly lite and the drivers tend to be aggressive. To avoid these risks simply rent a car with a local driver who understands the roads and the local driving culture.
Avoid uninsured expenses.
While hiring a driver may seem a little expensive at the start, in many cases its worth the extra dollar. While most rental cars are insured, they come with some uninsured costs in case of accidents. For example most companies do not insure the car against single motor accidents, rollover and towing costs. In the event of any of these happening you would be paying sizably higher than you would pay for a local guide.
Support Local talents and Responsible tourism
Local driver guides do a fundamental role in ensuring sustainable tourism. For example because of their network and local knowledge, you will be driving much shorter and spotting more animals than you would if you were driving yourself. This means less damage to the animal habitat and certainly less emissions. Buy reducing on the damage to nature these driver guides contribute to sustainable tourism. When you hire a car with a driver you will be supporting these local talent so that they are in turn available to help more travelers.
