4- Minibuses – If you plan on traveling as two or more families, then you should book a mid-sized bus and forego vans. A minibus can carry between 28 to 3o passengers but normally doesn’t have a cargo compartment so you have to pack light as the roof racks cant accommodate huge cargo. You can rent a coaster bus in Uganda and explore the city, national parks or any other destinations given the bus has a 4 wheel drive mechanism that allows it to pass through tough terrain, muddy, slippery & steep slopes. Coaster bus rental prices range from US$ 140 to 160 per day with a driver excluding fuel.
