Staying safe

• •Uganda has been home to some of the more gruesome atrocities in modern African history since its independence in 1962, particularly under the heinous dictator Idi Amin, but in the years since 1987 things have consistently improved.
• •In the 2010s, female tourists have been victims of attacks and sexual assaults, and are advised never to walk alone at night.
• •Travel north to Murchison Falls National Park and Ajai Game Reserve is safe. Overlanders from Tanzania and Kenya regularly make the trip routing through Jinja.
• •As in any urban area, Kampala can be dodgy.
• •However, any non-blacks walking in the street stand out and are likely to be stared at openly, which may cause discomfort to those unaccustomed to travelling in Africa.
• •What little begging exists is some of the most polite and inoffensive you will find in African cities, and not worse than anywhere in the West.

Staying healthy

• •The healthcare system is incredibly underdeveloped and is well below western standards.
• •The HIV/AIDS infection rate is very high (although it is lower than in neighbouring countries). Do not have unprotected sex.
• •There are occasional Ebola outbreaks in Uganda.
• •You may encounter exit screening (temperature checks) on leaving Uganda.
• •Marburg haemorrhagic fevers have been endemic within certain regions of the country.
• •Take precautions against malaria.
