The story behind Mugabo Travels

Built on local knowledge, driven by passion for Uganda's roads, wildlife and people.

Every road in Uganda has a story. I know them all.

🏆 Founder & Lead Guide
Reggane Mugabo
15 years on Uganda's roads

I first came across Mugabo Travels when I was looking for a reliable way to get from Entebbe to Kampala. What I found was something different — a company that genuinely cares.

Reggane and the team aren’t just drivers. They’re hosts. They know the roads, the parks, and they understand what it means to make a journey feel safe and personal. That’s rare anywhere. In Uganda, it’s exceptional.

If you’re planning a trip — whether it’s a quick airport run or a week-long safari — you’re in the right hands here.

Our Story

Why Mugabo Travels exists

“I started this company because I was tired of watching tourists get overcharged, driven by strangers who didn’t know the roads, and missing the real Uganda.”

Reggane Mugabo spent over a decade driving routes across Uganda — from the red-dust roads to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, to early-morning airport runs from Entebbe — before founding Mugabo Travels in 2010.

He’d seen too many visitors end up in unreliable vehicles with drivers who didn’t speak their language or know the terrain. He built this company to fix that.

Today, Mugabo Travels is a team of licensed, locally-trained drivers who know every shortcut, every lodge, every park gate. We don’t do tourist pricing. We do honest pricing — because we want you to come back.
