Cheap Airfare to Entebbe, Uganda

Pick up a globe, spin it around and point your finger on it to stop it. What location have you landed on? Me? I have ended up with Entebbe, Uganda. I have never been to Entebbe, Uganda and until I played this game I had never even heard of it. But after a little research I am intrigued. Such is the nature of the traveler. We can be captured by places that don’t even exist in our own minds.

Why would I like to go to Entebbe? For one thing, it is located on the shore of Lake Victoria where it serves as a departure point for the lake’s ferries. For another, it is located a short drive from Kampala, the capital of Uganda. African capitals are rarely boring. Lastly, Entebbe is home to the country’s largest and most visited international airport. It is the entry point to one of the most beautiful countries in Africa and the doorway to a culture that has held my interest ever since I first read about Idi Amin.

Airfare to Entebbe are actually more reasonable than I would have expected for a country that is so far away and for a city that is not exactly a household name. Whether or not I ever end up going there remains to be seen, but it never hurts to spin that globe and pick that random place and come away knowing more about the world than you did before.
