Self-drive Adventure through the Pearl of Africa
Are you feeling adventurous? Do you want to travel independently and at your own pace? How about being a self-drive traveler?
Uganda is becoming increasingly popular for self-drive travelers and is certainly one of the most adventurous ways to explore everything our beautiful country has to offer, not to mention ideal for those looking for a more independent travel experience at ones own pace.
With much improvement regarding infrastructure and roads throughout Uganda over the last few years, Across Africa now fully caters for the growing demand of tailored self-drive itineraries from as little as 5 days to as long as 4 weeks!
All clients spend their first night in the vibrant city of Kampala, before receiving an informative meet and greet the following morning, from one of our friendly team (German speaking also available!) who will arm the eager travellers with a company phone, complete with reliable GPS system, detailed map as well as written directions. They will also oversee the delivery of their 4 x 4 rental vehicle (various options available) and ensure everything is 100% before wishing them well on their trip of a life time!
One must be prepared for many unforgettable, breathtaking moments, from exhilerating chimpanzee encounters in the Kibale Forest, to the tree climbing lions in the Queen Elizabeth National Park, to the ultimate prize of tracking Mountain Gorillas in the magnificent Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, not forgetting the superb accommodation, delicious food, amazing culture and the friendliest people on the planet that one will enjoy and meet along the way. Just for reassurance... an Across Africa team member checks in with our clients each and evening!!
When does your adventure start?
