Africa, Uganda has got almost the best of everything the continent of Africa
has to offer. You will drive almost the entire country's top highlights in just
less than half a day; from rain forest to game parks and to the volcanoes which

standards, usually the road conditions throughout the country are too good and
are ever improving since the major roadwork programs are being implemented.
Entirely all the primary roads which radiating out of Kampala, the capital city
of Uganda have been implemented. Presently the country is densely populated and
during your road trip, you will pass many villages where you can fuel your car,
stock up supplies or ask for directions. Today, the tourism sector with in the
country is growing though still far from being saturated. This has created an
ultimate country for an active adventure.
