Break up your journey to and from Kampala - the staff are fantastic - Igongo is a well known pit stop for tourists in Uganda. But it is also a nice place to stay. Break up your journey to the west. The staff... read more are wonderful. Ask for Annette on the desk and Beki in the SPA. Tell them I sent you. There’s also a nice museum worth the 25k admission - ask for Godson- a wealth of local knowledge.
