N3 Kenya Chapter: Overland Journey to Kampala, Uganda 🇺🇬

🛂 Border Crossing Essentials 1️⃣ Documents: Yellow fever certificate (mandatory!). Valid East Africa Visa (or Uganda visa). 2️⃣ Process at Busia Border: 7:00 AM arrival: Kenya side: Fingerprints + exit stamp (5 mins). Uganda side: Visa check + entry stamp (no bribes asked!). Pro tip: Both immigration offices are side by side—super efficient! 🚌 Overnight Bus (Nairobi → Kampala) 📍 Departure: Simba Coach or Machakos Country Bus (CBD Nairobi). Cost: 3,000 KES (~$20). Avoid Simba—delays & baggage chaos! 📍 Journey: 6:30 PM departure → 4:00 AM border stop (bags hand-checked messily). 11:00 AM arrival: Kampala’s Simba Coach Terminal. 📍 Last Mile: Walk 2km to CBD (or boda-boda for 1,500 UGX). ⚠️ Honest Takeaways ✅ Smooth borders: No scams, just stamps. ❌ Bus blues: Delays + baggage roulette (pack light & lock your stuff!). 💰 Better option? Research Modern Coast or Dreamline buses! #EastAfricaOverland #BudgetTravel #KampalaOrBust #NoPlaneNoProblem
