Tea picking in Uganda
Local Area
Welcome to Uganda. Sheraton Kampala Hotel is within walking distance of many main attractions including the National Theatre craft market, Uganda Golf Course, Nakasero and St. Balikuddembe market (famously known as Owino market), shopping malls, as well as many dining and entertainment spots.
We encourage you to visit the Uganda Wildlife Education Centre in Entebbe during your stay with us. One of the country’s most popular attractions, this wildlife sanctuary and rescue center is home to “Sherino,” one of the first two white rhinos to be introduced back into Uganda after they were completely exterminated in the early 1980’s. The Sheraton Kampala has proudly sponsored Sherino (whose name is short for “Sheraton Rhino”) since his rescue. To learn more about the Uganda Wildlife Education Centre and to contribute to Sherino’s care, uweczoo.org.
