About the Reserve

Entebbe is the main air gateway for Uganda and the common beginning and ending point for several Likana Safaris itineraries. The town sits beside Lake Victoria and gives guests a gentle first impression of the country before longer journeys begin. It is useful for airport arrivals, final overnight stays, relaxed lakeside meals, and simple connections before traveling onward to Kampala, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kibale National Park, Lake Bunyonyi, Lake Mburo National Park, and Jinja. The proposals use Entebbe International Airport as an arrival point, departure point, and final safari drop off point.

Highlights

  • Best arrival and departure base for international guests
