London, Paris and Rome are three of the most visited cities in the world, and each one gives a very different holiday: royal history, romance and ancient ruins.
For Ugandan travellers, the main task is timing. The visa process comes first, and flights follow.
Getting there from Entebbe
Entebbe has connections to major European hubs, and some routes are direct. A UK visa and a Schengen visa (for France and Italy) are separate applications, and appointment times can be long, so start early. We guide you through the documents and the order of steps before you book flights.
Best time to go
April to June and September to October are mild with fewer crowds than July and August. December is cold but festive, especially in London and Paris.
Things to do
- London. Big Ben, the London Eye, Tower Bridge and a Thames cruise.
- Paris. The Eiffel Tower, a Seine cruise and the old streets of the city.
- Rome. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Vatican.
- Day trips. Windsor from London, Versailles from Paris and Tivoli from Rome.
- Food and shopping. Markets, cafes and designer streets.
Tips for Ugandan travellers
- Start the visa process before you book non-refundable tickets.
- Travel insurance is usually a visa requirement, so arrange it early.
- Pick one city for a first trip, and add others on a longer holiday.
