Kampala

Kampala is usually where an East African journey begins or ends — and it rewards more than a transit stop. Give it a day: markets, food, museums and the unhurried business of everyday Uganda are all worth your time.

It sits within one of Africa's great travel countries — Uganda: Gorillas, the Nile and honest adventure. Most travelers weave Kampala into a longer route taking in Gorilla trekking, Chimpanzees and Murchison Falls.

The operators on SafariSuite run Kampala regularly and price it from their live rate sheets — park fees, seasonal lodge rates and transfers included — so any itinerary you see here reflects what the trip actually costs.
