What to do in Entebbe
Lake Victoria
Entebbe is located on a peninsular of one of Africa's Great Lakes – Lake Victoria. The shores of Lake Victoria include Lido Beach which is near the international airport. Lake Victoria is the world's second largest freshwater lake. It is dotted with small islands, sandy shores and rain forests. Lake Victoria is truly worth the visit!
Wildlife Education Centre
The Ugandan Wildlife Education Centre – otherwise known as Entebbe Zoo – specialises in rehabilitating rescued, endangered species. The experience is like no other and your visit may include being a keeper for a day, forest trails and close-up encounters with chimpanzees. The day’s activities are totally up to you.
Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary
Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary, on the shores of Lake Victoria, is a must for anyone visiting Entebbe. The sanctuary is home to rescued orphan chimps from Eastern Africa. The duration of your visit can vary depending on what you desire: spend half a day, a whole day or even a night at the eco sanctuary.
Discover Uganda, the Pearl of Africa
Uganda is a fairytale. The scenery is different, the vegetation is different, the climate is different and most of all, the people are different. Uganda is truly the Pearl of Africa.
