Transportation to Airport from Brisbane City Center
Brisbane Airport
Trains are the fastest and most frequently preferred alternative to get to the airport from the city center in Brisbane. However, if you wish to continue your journey with a more comfortable option, you may consider renting a car, take advantage of airport shuttles, or easily find a taxi in the city.
Train
The train is the fastest option in Brisbane between the airport and the city center. Moreover, the fees for trains that you can get directly from the airport are much lower than other options. You can take a train from Central Station, South Brisbane, Fortitude Valley, Roma Street, South Bank and Bowen Hills, and reach the airport connecting Brisbane to the continent and the world. The trains are quite fast but not very suitable for passengers with children and very heavy luggage. If you are travelling as a group, it's a good idea to take a look at other alternatives such as taxi, airport shuttle or car rental to get to the airport from the center of Brisbane. Keep in mind that if you prefer trains, they work between 05:04 to 22:04 on weekdays and 06:04 to 22:04 on weekends.
Taxi
In Brisbane, you can also evaluate the taxi option, which is shown as one of the fastest alternatives to get to the airport from the city center. You will see two different taxi companies in the city. The first is Yellow Cab, the second is Black & White Cabs. It is possible to make a reservation at the beginning of your journey by calling 133222 and 131924. Also remember that the taximeters in Brisbane are opening at $ 3.50.
Bus
In Brisbane, buses are one of the most preferred transportation means, especially by locals. In the city you have the chance to take buses from almost all the central points of the city, especially the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Brisbane City. If you are considering the bus option to come to the airport from where you are, you can find the nearest stop by getting more detailed information from the reception of the hotel you are staying in.
Car Rental
It is also a good idea to rent a car to explore the beautiful coastline and countless beautiful sights worth seeing in the city. You can start exploring Brisbane by renting your car easily from companies such as AVIS, Hertz or Europcar. The steering is on the right, as is the case throughout Australia. Getting used to this situation can be challenging initially for those who consider renting a car for a while.
Airport Shuttle

In the city there is a shuttle service which especially carries the passengers of large scale hotels to the airport. It is important to remember that one of the most important conditions to pay attention to using these services is to book in advance.
Before coming to the city, you can make your reservation to the hotel via internet or by phone if they offer the service, and have the shuttle waiting for you at the door at the landing time of your plane. If your hotel is not offering this service, you can search the internet and choose your transportation by taking offers from different companies.
Bicycle
For Brisbane, you can easily say a complete bike town. It is possible to see bicycle riders in almost every region in the city. Bicycles are not among the first choices to use between the city center and airport, but it is an extremely attractive alternative especially for nearby areas.

Transportation to Entebbe City Center from Airport
Entebbe Intl. Airport
In Entebbe, there is a heavy traffic in general. Although traffic flow is comfortable late at night and early in the morning, traffic during the day is rather heavy. Besides, the drivers in the city don't follow traffic rules. For this reason, renting a car may sometimes be troublesome for those who are not so familiar with Entebbe traffic. However, it is possible to find the offices of many car rental companies in the city center. Considering the heavy traffic, you can prefer motorbike to the car if you are experienced at riding a motorbike. However, you should bear in mind that the most injury cases in Uganda are caused by motorbike accidents. If you are going to ride a motorcycle, at least you should wear your helmet. If possible, it would be a good idea to wear special protective clothing (such as jackets, knee pads).
Public transportation in Entebbe may sometimes be very challenging. Especially the careless and dangerous driving of the drivers as well as the old and neglected cars may be frightening for tourists. Means of public transport in the city are the minibuses, which are especially preferred at short distances, and the buses. These vehicles, which are extremely low in price, cover even the shortest distances at a longer time than they should due to the extremely crowded and heavy traffic. Motorcycle taxis called Boda Boda are the most preferred means of transportation in Entebbe.
The fact that motorbikes are smaller and have more agility compared to cars come with great advantages in heavy and complicated traffic. However, you should always remember to take the necessary precautions for your safety. Besides Boda Boda, the motorcycle taxis, you can also find normal taxis easily in the city center.
Taxis in Entebbe generally don't have fixed stands and a legal status. So anyone may serve his/her car as a taxi if you ask, or they may sometimes offer to pick you up. Taxi service in the city is not very reliable because there are not any regulations for taxis here. None of the taxis has a taximeter; even when they have, the taximeters are mostly broken. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to negotiate and agree with the driver in advance about the destination and taxi fare. Generally speaking, you shouldn't hesitate to bargain because the taxi fares are very high, especially if you are a tourist.
If you want to take a taxi, always try to prefer a taxi that your hotel or, if possible, someone you know recommends you take. Entebbe International Airport serves not only Entebbe city but also many other surrounding cities. Transportation from these cities to Entebbe International Airport is mostly provided through Kampala. It is very easy to reach Entebbe International Airport from Kampala by small minibuses. These minibuses depart every 30 minutes or hourly depending on the density. Ticket only costs 3000 UGX, it means 1 dollar. However, the tourists may sometimes be charged twice a ticket price. The journey takes about one hour. If the traffic is not heavy, the journey time is much shorter.
You can also get to the city center from Entebbe International Airport in a very short time. Taxi is the most preferred transportation option from the airport to Entebbe city center, which is very close to the airport. You can also reach the city center by renting a car at the airport. Another alternative is the shuttle-like transfer vehicles run by Uganda Airport Transfers Company.
Taxi
You can easily find a taxi in front of the airport exit. If possible, try to take a taxi you are recommended or ask your hotel to arrange a taxi for you. As there is no taximeter in the taxis in Entebbe, remember to bargain with the driver about the taxi fare in advance. Don't pay the taxi fare in advance.
Rent a car
You can find the car rental offices of Hertz and Europcar at the airport. You also save time by renting your car online in advance. Please remember that you must have an international driver's license to rent a car. If you want to take advantage of this option, you should bear in mind that Entebbe traffic is generally quite dense and complicated. In addition renting a car, you can also rent a motorbike, which is a very common option in Entebbe.
If you want, you can also rent a car with a driver as well. Unlike the standard airport shuttle services, Uganda Airport Transfers, which is a private company, provides transfer services with various vehicles. Transfer vehicles vary from standard 3-person cars to 25-person buses. Each vehicle takes a luggage per seat. Another different service provided by this company is that it offers "door-to-door" service rather than traveling on a specific route. In addition, you can also benefit from the taxi services provided by this company.
Hotel Shuttle Services
A limited number of hotels offer airport shuttle services since Entebbe International Airport and the city center are very close to each other. However, even if your hotel doesn't provide shuttle service, they can arrange an option to pick you up at the airport upon your request.
