Getting to Kampala from Entebbe International Airport

If you’re flying into Uganda for the 2nd Biennial Uganda National Conference on Health, Human Rights and Development (UCHD 2025), your journey begins at Entebbe International Airport—the country’s primary gateway.

🚌 Travel Options from Entebbe to Kampala

  • Airport Shuttle Services
    Book a shuttle in advance through your hotel or conference organizer. These are affordable and reliable.

  • Private Airport Taxis
    Official airport taxis cost $30–$40 (UGX 120,000–150,000) depending on traffic and your drop-off point in Kampala. Use only licensed airport taxis.

  • Ride-Hailing Apps
    Uber, Bolt, and SafeBoda operate in Uganda. You’ll need internet access—buy a local SIM card or use roaming.

  • Public Transport
    Best avoided if you’re new—matatus (minibuses) and boda bodas (motorcycle taxis) can be chaotic and less safe.
