Entebbe

Slow travel
Wildlife
Family friendly

Entebbe sits on a peninsula in Lake Victoria and holds the country's international airport, so nearly every trip starts and ends here. It is calmer than Kampala, with botanical gardens on the lakeshore and a wildlife education centre that rehabilitates rescued animals. One night either side of a safari is the usual pattern.
