Blog – Uganda from within 2026

Day of departure

We got up early, around 5 AM, because we needed to be at Zaventem Airport around 7:15 AM. After checking in, we didn’t have to wait long for boarding because our flight was at 10:15 AM. After a long flight, including a stop of about one hour in Kigali, we arrived in Entebbe at 10:55 PM.

Our driver, who would be with us for the whole journey, was already waiting for us there. After a short meet and greet and loading our luggage into the back of the bus, we drove to Via Via. Once everyone had been assigned their room or glamping tent, we went to the bar for a refreshing drink and some food. After that, it was time for our first night in Uganda.
