The destination

Why Uganda


Uganda is where our story starts, and it is still the destination we know best: our own vehicles, our own guides, our own operations desk in Kampala. For meetings, Kampala and Entebbe offer purpose-built conference facilities on Lake Victoria with international hotel inventory a short transfer from the airport. For incentives, the country is unusually generous: gorilla trekking in Bwindi, chimpanzees in Kibale, boat cruises on the Kazinga Channel, white water on the Nile at Jinja, and the tree-climbing lions of Ishasha. Because the distances between experiences are short, Uganda works particularly well for programmes that need a two- or three-night extension rather than a full week away from the office.
