Questions & Answers about Traveling from Kampala to Entebbe

With a relaxing Daytrip private car transfer, the journey takes just 50 minutes from door to door. A friendly, professional driver will safely escort you to your next destination and offer local knowledge en route to elevate your travel experience.
The major cities nearest to the Entebbe International Airport include, of course, Entebbe, as well as Bunono, Kisubi, and, most popular among visitors, Kampala, which is less than an hour's drive away. Sightseeing along the way with a Daytrip transfer could feature a tour of the Wamala tombs or Mpanga forest.
Entebbe is easily reached from Kampala in under an hour with a private driving service, making it a great option for travelers short on time who wish to explore more of the Western region of Uganda in just one day.
Driving is by far the fastest option from Kampala to Entebbe, and a private car service with Daytrip will get you door-to-door in just 50 minutes. Taxis are available on this route, but the taxi prices in Uganda can fluctuate wildly during the busiest times.
The best option for an Ebb airport transfer is a Daytrip private transfer, offering comfortable and convenient transport right from your Kampala accommodation to the airport. This allows for more control over your departure time, which may help you avoid delays on the bus due to departures during heavy traffic.
The bus from Kampala on the Northern shores of Murchison Bay to Entebbe on the Lake Victoria peninsula takes around 1 hour and 10 minutes, although visitors should note that additional transport to and from the bus stations might increase their travel time.

Great communication with an actual person! They will take you ANYWHERE, No pre-set routes to choose from!

Last minute plan change and Daytrip was our last resort so I chatted with them and had an immediate response from a real person, best situation ever. Never used Daytrip before but the reviews were incredible so we took the chance and booked a driver at like 11-12pm and by 7am the next morning when we woke, they found us a driver and the driver had already texed us making contact! Very impressed and will definitely use them again. We went from Dubrovnik, Croatia to Tivat, Montenegro.

Perfect Transport

Andreas did a great job picking us up from Pireaus Cruise Port and taking us to our rental in Spata. The three of us had been on a long cruise and had 9 pieces of luggage. He arrived in an appropriate vehicle and loaded and unloaded all of it. We are very happy with out decision to book with Daytrip.

Exactly what they promised

We used Daytrip.com for 4 trips within Italy. This door-to-door service is not inexpensive. That said: All 4 drivers arrived on time. All spoke fluent English. All were excellent drivers, and all were kind and considerate. Lots of other things went wrong on this trip, but Daytrip.com did exactly what they promised.
