Travel - Internal
AIR: Eagle Air, TMK, Air Commuter and Missionary Aviation Fellowship offer flights from Entebbe to most major towns. Charter flights are also available.
LAKE: Local boat services link Entebbe to the Ssesse Islands.
ROAD: Traffic drives on the left. The road network extends over 28,332km (17,605 miles). The roads are of variable quality and radiate from Kampala, although the network is sparse in the north. There are still some army and police check points on roads and railways. Bus: Services run between most parts of Uganda but are unreliable and often very crowded. Scheduled services operate between Entebbe and Kampala (travel time – 1 hour) and to and from the airport. An extensive network of minibuses, known as Matatus, runs to most parts of the country and they are a quick and convenient form of transport, if a little overcrowded. Post-bus services operate Monday to Saturday from Kampala to main towns. There are also special taxis, identifiable by their black and white stripes, which take passengers to wherever they want to go, but are more expensive than Matatas. Documentation: An International Driving Permit and adequate third-party insurance is required. Drivers must carry their vechicle log books.
