Uganda

The Uganda Golf Club sits in the middle of Kampala and is easy to fit around business. Entebbe Golf Club is close to the lake and the airport. The Lake Victoria Serena Golf Resort, south of Kampala, has an 18-hole course beside the lake and is the place for a few days of golf in one spot.

Rwanda

Kigali Golf Resort & Villas has an 18-hole course in the capital, and a round there pairs naturally with a gorilla trek in Volcanoes National Park.

Kenya

Nairobi has several established clubs. Muthaiga is one of the best known and has hosted the Kenya Open. Karen Country Club is a parkland course in the city’s leafy south-west.

Practical notes

Morning tee times are cooler and more pleasant. Caddies are available at most clubs and know the greens well. Bring your own clubs or ask us to arrange hire, and tell your airline about your golf bag in advance.
