Fly into and out of Entebbe International Airport (airport code: EBB):

• Depart on the last day of the trip anytime after 7:00 PM

We will be taking a domestic flight back to Entebbe on the last day of the trip. Relax at The Boma Hotel until your departing international flight

*There is an internal domestic flight in Uganda between Bwindi- Entebbe (EBB). This is booked by Discover Corps (please send a copy of your passport to Discover Corps ASAP to facilitate this process). The domestic flights have 14kgs limit (1 checked bag) per person. The extra kilograms attract extra fees

Early Arrival/Late Departure

Discover Corps recommends that you arrive a day prior to avoid any flight delays or cancelations. If you decide to arrive a day prior to the trip start date, you can book an early night at the hotel directly. If you arrive outside of the Discover Corps program, you are responsible for the transfer from the airport to the hotel. This is where we'll be staying for the first night in Entebbe. We can request that you be in the same room but we cannot guarantee it.

Preferred Hotel: Boma Hotel

If you plan to arrive early or depart late, please complete this form here with your arrangements.
