Welcome to Fern Rentals, your friendly partner for Car rental Uganda. You want a reliable car, clear pricing, and a team that answers fast. We deliver that experience every day to tens of guests and clients like you.
Whether you need a saloon for city errands, an SUV for the weekend, a 4×4 for safari or even a mini bus for your group, we set you up with the right vehicle and real support from the first message to drop off.
Many times our guests usually ask how to move smoothly from Entebbe to Kampala, how to reach Jinja for a day on the Nile, or how to drive to Bwindi for gorilla trekking without stress. Our answer stays simple. Book your car hire in Uganda with Fern Rentals, get a clean and inspected vehicle, and drive with live help on call.
We meet you at the airport or your hotel, run through the handover, and send you off with directions, a local SIM if you need one, and tips on fuel stops and speed limits.
We are Ugandans and deeply understand our roads like the back of our hands. Kampala traffic can be busy at rush hour, the highway to Mbarara has police checks, and gravel sections to national parks need steady driving.
Our team shares the route plan and the road rules in plain language. You get practical guidance, not jargon. You also get options. Self drive for full freedom. Chauffeur service if you want to relax while a professional driver handles navigation, parking, and timekeeping.
We match the right vehicles to the right routes, group sizes and importantly to suit your purpose of the hire. Here is a simple guide to help you choose.
Sedans and compact saloons like Toyota Belta and Toyota Axio work well for city errands, client meetings, and quick day trips. They offer good fuel economy and easy parking.
Compact SUVs such as Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR‑V handle mixed roads, speed bumps, and weekend getaways. They fit small families and small luggage sets.
Full‑size SUVs and 4x4s like Toyota Prado, Land Cruiser TX, or Land Cruiser V8 suit national parks, rough tracks, and heavy luggage. High clearance and strong suspensions make long distances comfortable.
Vans and MPVs including Toyota Noah, Voxy, and Hiace suit families, wedding groups, and corporate teams. Sliding doors help with quick city pickups and school runs.
Safari‑ready 4x4s with pop‑up roofs and long‑range tanks support game drives and photo trips. We can supply a professional driver‑guide on request.
If you are unsure which class fits your route, ask us. Share your group size, bags, and destinations. We will recommend the right unit and explain the pros and cons in plain terms.
Airport pickups and one‑way rentals
Entebbe International Airport serves most arrivals. You can meet our agent at the arrivals hall or outside at the designated pickup point. We label the car, run through the inspection, and help with a local SIM or cash point if you ask. For returns, we meet you at departures or at your hotel. One‑way rentals to towns like Gulu, Mbarara, Fort Portal, Mbale, and Arua are available by arrangement. We confirm one‑way fees in advance so you can plan costs with no guesswork.
Support during your trip
We stay close to you without being in your way. If a warning light appears, you share a photo. If a tire goes soft in Kasese, we guide you to the nearest service bay or send help. If you misplace the fuel card in Jinja, we activate the backup plan. If a lodge changes the gate time, we message the driver and adjust pickups. You enjoy your trip while we handle the small problems that can slow you down.
Responsible driving and conservation
Uganda’s parks and communities deserve respect. Drive under 40 km/h in park zones. Keep to the tracks during game drives. Do not feed animals. Reduce noise near ranger posts and schools. Carry your plastic waste back to town. If a ranger gives instructions, follow them fully. We want you to return home with great memories and a positive impact.
Payments and documents
We accept Mobile Money, bank transfer, and major cards. Receipts include company details and VAT where applicable. Contracts show your rental dates, vehicle registration, and agreed mileage. Keep a copy of your contract in the glove box. If police or park officers request documents, present them calmly.
You want a dependable car, clear terms, and a team you can reach at any time. That is what we provide. Tell us your dates, route, and vehicle preference. We will reserve the right car and confirm your plan today.

Government agencies that require drivers with security awareness and clean records.
Embassies, film crews, medical teams, and conference delegates. If you move people or gear, we build a rental plan that fits the assignment.
Our team understands different expectations. A European guest expects clear invoices with VAT details and chip‑and‑PIN card options. A Ugandan client might prefer Mobile Money for part payment and a bank transfer for the balance. An American family wants clear mileage terms, roadside assistance, and a helpline that answers on the first ring. We align with your workflow and keep the process simple.
We also help with cross‑border trips if your itinerary includes Kigali or Nairobi. Some vehicles qualify for regional letters and COMESA insurance. Share your plan early so we can confirm availability and requirements.

You deserve a rental partner that will give you a perfect vehicle for your purpose while keeping things simple and honest. We keep our word, keep our vehicles in top condition, and keep you moving. Here is what sets Fern Rentals apart.
Your car should feel solid from ignition to the last checkpoint. Our technicians inspect every vehicle before release. They check tires, brakes, fluids, lights, and AC. You get saloons for city trips, compact SUVs for mixed roads, and serious 4x4s for park circuits. Each unit includes a spare tire, jack, wheel spanner, warning triangle, and a basic first aid kit.
You see the rate before you book and you keep that rate. Our quotes are straightforward and list the daily or weekly price, mileage terms, and optional protection like CDW or theft protection. You choose add‑ons and extra coverage based on your trip. No hidden extras at pickup. No last‑minute charges at drop off.
You drive with a real team on your side. We answer on WhatsApp, phone, and email at any hour. Flight delayed into Entebbe at 01:30. Our airport desk agent will wait and keep you updated. Need a mechanic in Fort Portal. Our team will responds fast when you need them. Want a last‑minute upgrade from RAV4 to Prado ASAP.
When your plans change, we adapt. Pick up at Entebbe International Airport, Kololo, Bugolobi, Munyonyo, or the Source of the Nile in Jinja. Return in Gulu or Mbarara. Ask for one‑way rentals between major towns. We build the schedule around your itinerary and confirm everything in writing so you can plan with confidence.
When you book a driver, you get more than a person behind the wheel. Our drivers are trained in customer service, safe driving, and basic vehicle care. They know back routes during traffic peaks and where to stop for clean washrooms, fuel, and snacks. They are punctual and tidy. You sit back and save energy for your meetings or your holiday.
We are Ugandans and live in the routes we recommend. Kampala to Murchison Falls., Ishasha sector in Queen Elizabeth. Kidepo during the dry season. Our team shares fuel range advice, cash or card tips, and checkpoints to expect. If you request it, we will preload offline maps on a phone mount. You travel prepared.
We provide full‑range car hire in Uganda for city trips, upcountry routes, safaris, events, and long‑term projects. Here is a quick view of our core services.

Public transport gets you from point A to B. A private vehicle gives you time control, privacy, and comfort. These eight reasons help you decide.
Your day should run on your time. With Car rental Uganda you leave when you are ready. Catch sunrise at Murchison Falls, then stop for chapati at Kafu.
Leave Bwindi after your gorilla trek and reach Lake Bunyonyi by sunset without rushing.
You choose when to start, where to break, and when to call it a day.
Coasters and taxis follow fixed routes. They skip community roads and lodge turnoffs.
With car hire in Uganda you drive straight to your lodge gate in Kibale, the briefing point in Kidepo, or the office park in Namanve.
You avoid the long waits and crowded stops that eat your day.
Traveling with children means car seats, snacks, extra water, and a bag of toys.
Your private vehicle carries it all in the boot. You set the AC to the right level and play your music without earphones.
Families, students on fieldwork, and colleagues heading to a workshop arrive together and ready to start.
When you add up multiple rides, a rental saves money.
Airport pickup, meetings across Kampala, a site visit on the Entebbe Expressway, and a day in Jinja can cost more with separate rides.
A weekly car hire in Uganda often beats that total. You also reduce waiting time that turns into lost hours and missed meals.
Safaris call for proper vehicles. A reliable 4×4 handles corrugations, rain, and steep descents.
You keep moving on the Kasenyi tracks for lions or the Katunguru bridge after a downpour.
Our 4×4 units come with high clearance and good tires. You enjoy game drives without worry.
Some meetings involve contracts, budgets, and sensitive conversations.
A private vehicle keeps your notes and your laptop out of sight. You take calls freely and type emails between stops.
A chauffeur lets you work in the back seat while you cross town.
Most flights land late evening or after midnight. With a prebooked car and driver, you walk out of arrivals and step into your vehicle. Our meet‑and‑greet agent holds a sign and helps with the trolley. You leave the airport within minutes and reach your hotel without haggling or waiting.
Trips evolve. A meeting runs long. Rain closes a small bridge. A lodge moves you to a different gate. With Fern Rentals, you message us and we adjust. We extend your rental, switch the pickup point, or route you around a closure. You travel with a responsive partner.
