Websites about tourism and travel in Uganda – from authorities and associations to travel portals.
Ministry of Tourism, Wildlife and Antiquities
Background information, data, figures and facts on the state of tourism in Uganda can be found on the website of the Ministry of Tourism, Trade and Industry.
Tourism Uganda (Uganda Tourism Board)
"Tourism Uganda" is a state-supported organisation whose general aim is to promote tourism in Uganda. It represents Uganda abroad at various tourism fairs and is the domestic contact for all players in the tourism sector.
African Travel and Tourism Association (ATTA)
The "African Travel and Tourism Association (ATTA)" organises travel operators from Europe. The ATTA represents its members’ interests generally to the outside world and is, not least, a kind of seal of quality. Many of the large travel agencies are members here.
Uganda Travel Guide
The Uganda Travel Guide is a large travel portal about Uganda in English. You will find all kinds of relevant information about the country as well as about hotels, safari providers etc.
Guide2Uganda
Guide2Uganda is a relatively new, English-language portal. Here you will find, alongside general country information, many contact details for hotels, travel providers, restaurants and more.
Travel Report Blog about Uganda
Dirk Boelsems’ travel report blog now also has a category for Uganda. In this blog, which is still being built, you will find first-hand travel reports from Uganda. Whether you are an experienced travel specialist from a travel agency or simply a holidaymaker – everyone is invited to share their travel reports with the public.
Association for Local Tourism in Uganda
UCOTA supports small communities and places with its projects so that they can share in tourism and the local population can earn a living. This happens primarily through the sale of high-quality artistic souvenirs, the provision of accommodation or as tour guides. The website presents all activities, and you will find information on how you too can support UCOTA and sustainable local tourism.
Association of Ugandan Tour Operators
Around 70 companies are registered as members of the Association of Ugandan Tour Operators (AUTO). AUTO reviews its members’ business activities according to defined criteria. Membership of AUTO is therefore a kind of seal of quality for safari operators.
Boomu Women’s Group
The Boomu Women’s Group is a classic example of sustainable local tourism. Thanks to projects like this, you get to know the original Uganda at its best. The Boomu Women’s Group can also be found in our hotel database. Simply search for "Boomu".
Southern & Eastern Africa Working Group (ASA) e.V.
Travel operators, information offices and hotels are organised under the umbrella of the Southern & Eastern Africa Working Group (ASA) e.V. The website provides you with further information for travel preparation. Uganda is not (yet) the focus at present, but one or other travel operator has Uganda in its programme.
