There is that time of the semester when the exam stress is done, sometimes most of the money is done too and you definitely have to go back home. End of the semester isn’t the smoothest thing students endure and any means to ease that should be welcome.
So you are done packing your luggage and now you have to go back to your parents home. There are quite a number of ways to leave your hostel or University hall of residence but today I am sharing the 21st century way to do it with convenience and at a cheap price.
For starters, there is a ride booking service called Uber in Kampala and Entebbe and if you haven’t downloaded the app yet, you can download it from here and we are even giving you a promo code worth 15,000/-. Use the promo code: CAMPUSBEE and get 15,000/- off your first ride.
Let’s say you are leaving your hostel in Kikoni and you are going to Bukoto, you can personally order your ride home with the tap of a button. Well, you are probably asking why you should use Uber and not a cab or borrowing a car or having to wait for your parent or guardian.
With Uber you order the ride home where and when you need it. Forget about having to be the last in hostel because your Dad said he isn’t going to leave work early to pick up a grown up. Basically whether is midday, midnight, or 7am, Uber will get you a driver to pick you up at whatever time you want. Whenever you want it, it is there!
The most important thing is how cheap Uber actually is compared to greedy special hires that will overcharge you at the end of the semester. In their new app, Uber even shows you how much you will spend on your way home. Yes, now you will know how much money to spare as you party on your last campus night. ????
We even compiled a list of popular destinations and prices from campuses to popular residences. Check yours out.
