After landing, your safari guide will be eagerly waiting for you for the transfer by road to your private overnight Lodge. They are 2 flight departures from Entebbe to Bwindi that are in the morning or in the afternoon you can choose your suitable flight. Morning flights usually set off Entebbe for Bwindi Impenetrable National Park at 7:45 am and afternoon flights set off Entebbe at 12:30 pm daily. For the southern sectors of Bwindi, it is only one morning flight that departs Entebbe to Kisoro Airstrip daily at 7:45 am. This is because of the strong tabulates and the area is mist-covered during morning hours. Inbound flights to Bwindi national park usually take up to one and half hours depending on the mapping of the day.
