Getting Around
Getting around Gulu is an adventure in itself, offering a real taste of local transport. Bicycles and boda-bodas (motorcycle taxis) are the most common and affordable ways to navigate the city's streets. For longer distances or more comfort, hire a private car or a taxi. Negotiate prices beforehand, especially with boda-bodas. Public minibuses also connect Gulu to other towns, but can be crowded. Public transport within Gulu is limited to these options, making boda-bodas the go-to for quick trips.
