Itinerary
Day 1: Pickup from Entebbe Airport, Kampala – Transfer to Ssese Islands Bugala
Our company guide will pick you up from the airport in Entebbe, your hotel or Kampala and drive you to the Nakiwogo landing site in Entebbe before 2:00pm. The ferry leaves at exactly 2:00pm. You will then sail to the largest island Bugala. If you arrive earlier in the day and have to wait for the ferry too long, our guide will take you for a tour of the Entebbe botanical gardens or the zoo. While on the ferry, enjoy the beautiful sites of the second largest fresh water lake in the world. The ferry drops everybody at the Lutoboka bay in Bugala Island and by this time, you would already know just how beautiful the island is. Check in at the hotel, shower and take a walk to admire the beautiful scenery. The rest of the evening will be spent relaxing and enjoying the white sand beach. A camp-fire can be lit on request later in the evening.
Dinner and accommodation will be at Brovad Sands Lodge (Luxury) or Pearl Garden Hotel (Mid-range and budget) which is built next to the beach.
