Don’t buy souvenirs in Kampala. They cost much cheaper in the countryside.

The cheapest accommodation option in Uganda is huts with dirt floors and straw roofs. You can stay there for a couple of dollars per night.

There are very few places in Uganda where you can eat out. That’s why focus on fruits, they are cheap here. They can be bought everywhere. In Entebbe and Kampala there are supermarkets.

There is a tendency to lower dollar’s exchange rate if the bill was released before 2001. And banks are open only till 3PM on business days.

Buying Malaron upon arrival won’t be superfluous. It costs much cheaper here than in Russia.

Forget about travelling fast by buses across the country. First of all, they don’t travel at night and second, a fleet of vehicles is very old and buses break down frequently. Furthermore, they don’t respect departure time schedule. So, if you are choosing these means of transport, always keep in mind that it will take you longer to get anywhere by bus.

The most affordable and comfortable city’s transport is matatu and boda-boda. Matatu is cheaper though you can bargain with boda-boda drivers.

Hitch-hiking is almost impossible here. Even though you are given a lift, you are very likely to be asked to pay for a ride. Besides, roads and vehicles are in deplorable condition.
