Uganda Visa Costs
When
visiting Uganda, travellers must have a valid passport. 30-day tourist
visas are available for most nationalities on arrival or alternatively
can be booked online through Uganda’s e-visa system which is fairly
straightforward to use. The visa fees must not exceed US$ 50 for a
single entry visa or US$ 70 for multiple entry. Visa requirements vary
from country to country and it is important that you clarify this
information with your local travel agent before you travel.
Getting There: Uganda Flights
Entebbe International Airport is the main airport that serves Uganda. All safaris to Uganda will land at Entebbe. The cost of a flight will depend on the time of year and where you are flying from. Traditionally, flights are more expensive around the traditional seasonal holidays like Easter and Christmas when most people can travel. Flight costs do vary around the year and you can keep an eye on prices using a dedicated site like Google Flights, Kayak, or Skyscanner.
If you are flexible and feeling lucky, you can roll the dice and try to get cheaper flights in the shoulder season months, May to early June, and late October to November. You may find cheaper deals on flights, but the weather is a gamble and could go either way. During this time, tourist numbers will also be lower making for a more intimate and relaxed safari experience.

Accommodation
Ugandan hotels are priced pretty reasonably and you can expect to pay around $15 – $20 for a place that has all the basics. On the other hand, higher-end stays might cost you more in the $50 – $100 range
Travelling with a group allows you to share the cost of your Uganda safari making it more budget-friendly and affordable. For example, you might hire a car for US$ 80 per day, and if you have 4 travel companions to share the cost with, it works out to US$ 20 each per day, meaning that each group member saves US$ 60 per day.
