Tourism is one of East Africa's most important foreign-exchange earners. There is the Big Five safari experience in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda, gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda, the Swahili coast, the islands of Zanzibar, and cultural and faith tourism. The region offers a genuinely diverse product. The industry supports tour operators, travel agents, safari camps, luxury lodges, and a deep ecosystem of guides, drivers, and transfer operators.

EABD lists tour operators, travel agencies, safari camps, lodges, cultural-tourism operators, and DMC (destination management) companies. Verified profiles include licensing (KATO, AUTO, TATO membership where applicable), itineraries offered, and reviews from past travellers.

About Uganda

Uganda's economy is built on agriculture, growing manufacturing capacity, the oil discoveries in the Albertine Graben, and a vibrant Kampala-centred services sector. The country's central location makes it a hub for landlocked trade serving South Sudan, eastern DRC, Rwanda, and Burundi.

EABD lists verified Ugandan businesses across Central, Eastern, Northern, and Western regions, with deep coverage of Kampala, Wakiso, Mukono, Jinja, Mbarara, Gulu, and the other major urban centres. Verification cross-references URSB registration where applicable. The directory is built to help buyers find suppliers, investors find opportunities, and the Ugandan business community trade with each other and the wider East African region with confidence.
