    Getting TO/AROUND: I took a bus from Kampala, Uganda to Kigali. It took almost 10 hours including like an hour at the border. It costed 20,000 Uganda Shillings. It was 15,000 for the local. Departed at 10am(though it said 9am in the ticket).

    The bus was OK. There was no air conditioning but the weather was good during that time so I never felt hot. One thing I didn't like about it is that the driver stopped at the gas station for us to go to the toilet too late. I think it should be like every 3 hours but it was like 5 hours so it was quite torturing because I usually drink a hell lot of water. He also stopped at a place where you can buy something to eat but I didn't try anything.

     Very useful information, Peak! Exploring the option of going there soon... is it safe for a woman travelling solo? Thanks for sharing!    		rescueboy999 Mon Aug 22, 2005 13:41 UTC
