About Uganda eSIM coverage
Coverage & Networks
4G/LTE and 5G via MTN Uganda and Airtel Uganda — Good in Kampala, Entebbe and main towns. Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and the remote interiors of Queen Elizabeth Park have limited signal.
How much data do I need?
1–2 GB covers a week. Kampala city navigation and booking confirmations are the main data uses.
Tip for Uganda
Bwindi mountain gorilla permits must be booked months in advance through the Uganda Wildlife Authority — permits sell out fast and cannot be arranged at the park gate.
