1 Day Explore Entebbe City

1 Day Explore Entebbe City : Entebbe was the capital of Uganda during the colonial era and it derives its name from a Luganda phrase “Entebbe za mugala”. This literally meaning the headquarters “seat”, basically named so because it was the place where the Banda chief sat to adjudicate legal cases. Entebbe is also best known to Europeans as the home of Entebbe International Airport, the main Airport of Uganda which was officially opened on 10th November 1951. 

The Airport has long been the main port of entry and arrival for international arrivals to Uganda for about as long as the country has been receiving international visitors. As a matter of fact, in 1913, Sir Frederick Treves arrived at Entebbe from the ports of Mwanza and Kisumu and described it as “the prettiest and most charming town of the lake”. Otherwise, this tour will take you to some of the most attractive places in Entebbe. These include; Uganda Wildlife Education Centre (UWEC), the Botanical gardens and the Mabamba swamp.
