Entebbe International Airport, located near Lake Victoria and 40 kilometres from Kampala, serves as Uganda’s primary air transport gateway. As you prepare for your journey, you will find this airport, while compact, is efficiently organised to ensure a smooth departure experience.
Getting to the airport is simplest via a hire car or taxi. If travelling from Kampala, we recommend arranging your taxi in advance through your hotel concierge to secure an official, metered vehicle. Airport transfer services are also available and can be pre-booked. Limited but high-demand parking is available if you choose to drive yourself. Local buses run from Entebbe town, but they can be infrequent and crowded.
You should arrive at least two hours before your scheduled flight boarding time. Departures are handled through the main terminal. Please be aware that security checks are thorough, and baggage searches may take some time, so ensure all your travel paperwork is ready beforehand.
The airport provides adequate facilities for your needs. You can browse the Duty Free shops for a range of goods, and vendors offer travel essentials, books, magazines and drinks. For a snack, several food outlets are available. Look for mother-and-baby changing areas and take advantage of the VIP lounge if you are travelling business or first class, offering you comfortable seating and Wi-Fi access in certain parts of the terminal.
Begin your Korean exploration in Incheon, a historically significant and economically vital powerhouse of South Korea. You will immediately sense the city's seamless blend of modern progress and deep cultural identity, beautifully preserved in its traditional architecture and stunning parks. This welcoming location is one of South Korea’s best-kept secrets, offering a wealth of attractions and excellent facilities for your visit. You can explore Incheon's Chinatown, the only official one in South Korea, which sits right next to the tranquil Liberty Park. This expansive green space is a stunning open area that offers a welcome escape from the city’s vibrant energy. For a fantastic panoramic spectacle of ultra-modern architecture, you should make your way to the North Asia Trade Tower, a prominent landmark in the rapidly expanding Songdo International City.
If you desire a more traditional flavour, you can take a local ferry to the beautiful Incheon Islands. Here, life moves at a far more sedate pace, and you will discover relatively quiet beaches and peaceful hiking trails, which are perfect for a refreshing outdoor leisure experience. Amongst the best islands to visit are Daecheongdo, Ganghwado, and Muuido. Back in the city, the Arts Centre in Guwol-dong is a must-see, offering frequent performances of traditional Korean plays, dancing and theatre. This cultural venue is also conveniently located within a thriving retail district, allowing you to combine cultural browsing with shopping for unique souvenirs.
