Kampala in April

Traveling to Kampala, Uganda, in April offers a unique experience, especially if you don't mind a bit of rain. This month falls within the long rainy season, so you can expect frequent showers that often come in short, heavy bursts. The rain adds a lush, green vibrancy to the city and surrounding landscapes, making it a beautiful time to see the natural side of Uganda. Just be prepared for some wet weather, as it can occasionally disrupt outdoor plans. Despite the rain, Kampala remains lively and bustling, with plenty of cultural experiences, markets, and local eateries to explore under cover or between showers.

April also means fewer tourists, so you might enjoy a more relaxed vibe and better deals on accommodations and tours. The city's energy is vibrant, with friendly locals and a rich mix of modern life and traditional culture. It’s a great time to visit museums, art galleries, and enjoy Kampala’s growing food scene without the crowds. Just pack a good rain jacket and waterproof shoes, and you’ll be set for an authentic, slightly adventurous visit to Uganda’s capital.
