Entebbe located on the northern shores of Lake Victoria, is one of the most peaceful and beautiful destinations in Uganda. Just a short distance from Kampala, this lovely town is the main international gateway to the country—still, it feels miles away from the capital's hustle, providing the tourist with an invigorating combination of nature, history, and leisure.
The lakefront tranquilness is the main reason why Entebbe is so beautiful. The soft ripples caused by Lake Victoria, the largest lake in Africa, are the most relaxing sounds for people who are riding on boats, fishing, and going on sunset cruises. The Entebbe Botanical Gardens of the town, which were founded in the 19th century, are another exhortation of lush nature filled with tropical plants, birds, and cheeky monkeys—ideal for a slow stroll or a picnic under the shade of trees.
Zoo lovers will be ecstatic about the Uganda Wildlife Conservation Education Centre (formerly called Entebbe Zoo), where it is possible to see naturalistic settings of some of the natives, such as lions, chimpanzees, and rhinos. And if you are looking for an outdoor adventure, you can always take a boat ride to the Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary, where the rescued chimps are roaming freely in their natural habitat on the island.
In addition to the natural beauty of the town, Entebbe has a bit of history and local culture, from the State House to colorful craft markets and lakeside restaurants that serve freshly caught tilapia. It is the beautiful weather, picturesque landscapes, and friendly atmosphere that make the town an ideal place to stay before or after visiting Uganda’s national parks.
