When is the best time to go to Kampala?
The best time to visit Kampala is during the dry seasons, which run from December to February and again from June to August.

During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and plenty of sunshine, making it ideal for exploring the city's attractions and the surrounding region. The drier conditions mean easier travel on roads, particularly if you're planning excursions outside the city centre.

Couples often find these dry periods great for a relaxed trip, as they can enjoy outdoor dining and sightseeing without the interruption of heavy showers. The weather is consistently pleasant for visiting sites like the Uganda Museum or exploring the local markets.

For those planning to combine their city stay with a safari or gorilla trekking adventure, the dry seasons are particularly advantageous.
