£258+ Cheap flights to Uganda

Peak season: The busiest month of the year tends to be July time. Due to this you’ll find cheap flights to Uganda are a lot harder to come by as more tourists flock to enjoy the warm weather and make the most of the activities on offer. The peak season begins in June time though and runs until September to early October although the weather can become unbearable as August rolls on. October 9th is Independence Day in Uganda, a public holiday which sees the country come to life to celebrate. Bear in mind that accommodation surrounding this event will be a lot pricier as will flight tickets. It’s also very important to make sure you have any permits secured well in advance, for example gorilla permits etc. Off season: Uganda doesn’t necessarily have an off season due to hot weather practically all-year round although January to early March is when tourism is at its lowest. Aim for this time of year if you’re after the cheapest flights to Uganda.
