Ride-Hailing Services

If you prefer a more direct route, you can use ride-hailing services like Uber or Bolt. Request a ride from your location in Gwari to Kajuru Castle. This option is convenient, but more expensive, with estimated fares ranging from 3,000 NGN to 5,000 NGN depending on traffic and time of day.
