Kampala Skyline
A distant but clear view of Uganda's capital city sprawled across its famous seven hills shortly after takeoff.
The Victoria Nile
Watch the mighty Nile River as it twists through the landscape towards the world-famous Murchison Falls.
Murchison Falls NP
Aerial views of Uganda's largest protected area, where you can often spot the change in vegetation and winding river tracks.
Albert Nile Confluence
The stunning point where the Nile exits Lake Albert and flows north, becoming the Albert Nile, which guides the final approach to Arua.
Request a seat behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the river systems. The afternoon sun (14:00-17:00) provides the best lighting to illuminate the water's reflection and the vibrant greens of the savanna. Watch for the 'V' shape of the Albert Nile as it marks your entry into the West Nile region.

Dramatic views of the Entebbe peninsula and the northern bays of the world's largest tropical lake during departure.

A bird's-eye view of the historic and lush agricultural landscapes of central Uganda, characterized by small-scale farming mosaics.

Distant views of the western rift valley's escarpment where the plateau drops toward the Lake Albert basin.
DRC Border Ranges
On very clear days, the faint blue silhouettes of the mountains in the Democratic Republic of the Congo are visible on the far horizon.
Morning flights are highly recommended for the left side to avoid the harsh afternoon sun glare reflecting off the haze. Keep your camera ready during the first 10 minutes of flight for the best shots of the Entebbe shoreline and nearby islands.
