Are you planning for a group tour with family, friends, workmates or simply a trip looking at taking different people to join the arrangement? One of the main characteristics of group trips is that there is a lot of excitement and fun. However, this can be turned down if you hire an inappropriate vehicle for the travelers. The best way a group can travel is to rent an executive bus because this perfectly suits them with a sufficient siting arrangement, enough space for luggage and a number of other amenities. As you look around for bus to hire in Uganda for your group, we thought these factors to consider will help you make the best choice for your group.
Space
This should be the very first thing to consider for your travelers. Whether you are on a short or long trip, it is important for everyone on board to stay comfortable during travel. The bus you are renting should have enough space above and below. It should have enough luggage storing area in the compartment. Ensure the bus has overhead parcel for travelers to store their small-size luggage to avoid inconvenience. The leg room should be wide enough for comfortable seating plus the space between columns for easy movement.
Driver
Confirm from the car rental company that the driver who is going to be taking you to your destination or destinations on your trip is a licensed and certified one. He should be the kind that will highly consider the safety and security of passengers throughout the trip.
Accessibility
Knowing all your passengers is important and helps to plan well for them. If you have any handicapped individual in the group, consider them when renting a bus. As most buses are not handicapped friendly, finding a suitable one might be quite challenging and more costly. However, you have got to make every one comfortable. It is advisable therefore to hire a bus at an extra cost considering the suitability for this category.
Amenities
As you take time to inspect the bus, make sure all the features are functioning. And before you confirm your payment, ensure that all essential interior amenities are in good state and functioning as well. Check amenities including the air conditioner, lights, windows, a fire extinguisher and a first aid kit among others.
Entertainment
The journey may start with lots of excitement and conversation, plus pictures and updates about the journey. But along the way, especially if it is a long trip, you need an extra source of entertainment since it seems to get bored as people relax. A sufficient entertainment system should be a great consideration for your group because they will surely demand for it is in the middle of the trip. It can be video music, audio music, movies or any other depending on the kind of the travel group. Some travelers might get interested and be satisfied with reading magazines. Alternatively, offer Wi-Fi because today many people are so much kept occupied by social media.
Spare driver
If you are going for a long distance trip which may also be filled with lots of activities, it is advisable that you hire a spare driver. This one comes in when the main driver is very tired. You will not regret having a spare driver on board because it is one way to ensure the travelers are safe. Most likely this driver might come at an extra cost.
