Entebbe: A beautiful city for your next vacation

Entebbe stands on the north shore of Lake Victoria. It remains within Uganda's Wakiso district, less than 40 km from the capital, Kampala. It is a green and safe city. You can fly to Entebbe and from there explore the rest of Uganda, or focus on experiencing the city itself. There are Flights to Entebbe that offers from Toronto to Entebbe. They include both low-cost Canada to Entebbe flights and those specialized with a high level of quality.

Having been the capital during the British colonial rule (which ended in the 1920s), Entebbe has leafy boulevards and old colonial buildings everywhere, which can be discovered on a stroll. The city prides itself also on having many white sand beaches at Lake Victoria. All these use to be lined with restaurants, hotels, and nightspots. They have become a popular destination for local residents and international tourists. It is worth noting that the beaches are crowded on the weekends, but relatively empty during the week.

Some of the best things to do in Entebbe have to do with the city's abundant flora and fauna attractions. Its botanical gardens are a birdwatching paradise, while the nearby Mabamba Wetland is home to the elusive shoebill. Visitors can also get in touch with nature at the Uganda Wildlife Education Center, popularly known as the Entebbe Zoo, dedicated to the rehabilitation and reintegration of animals orphaned by the poacher action.

Entebbe

Entebbe is lively but young people often "go up" to the capital to party. This does not prevent Entebbe from having very nice pubs, cafes and restaurants, and even nightclubs! Try for example the Knight Riders or the L2 Night club. For walks, the shores of the lake are the ideal place.

Transport and getting around Entebbe

The plane will take you straight to Entebbe International Airport, and for good reason, it is the only one in the country. In the city, matabus and minibusses are the most practical public transport when it rains. You want more exoticism, prefer the Bodabodas, the bicycle taxi, or the motorcycle taxis. They are very fast!
