Uganda eSIM for city and Bwindi stays
Choose mobile data for an Entebbe-based stay, a Jinja visit or an organised itinerary using the exact booked Bwindi sector.
For an Entebbe arrival, save the actual pickup, first accommodation address, entrance and contact before departure. A Jinja visit needs the booked activity organiser's precise meeting point and return arrangement. For Bwindi, the sector on the booking matters: match Buhoma, Ruhija, Rushaga or Nkuringo to the lodge or organiser's instructions, and store those details offline before the visit.

How eSIM works in Uganda
Install the eSIM over reliable Wi-Fi before departure and leave its line off until Uganda. After entering Uganda, choose Horizon for mobile data and enable data roaming on that line. Check the Uganda validity rule before purchase: the period begins with the first successful connection to a supported network in the country. A compatible dual-SIM phone may keep your home SIM active during the stay; its provider may charge for use.
Install your eSIM
Scan the QR or auto-install in the app — no physical SIM.
Land & connect
Data activates on first connection at your destination.
Size it to your trip
Pick the profile closest to your trip. The estimate assumes normal use — maps, messaging, photos, a short call home.
As a rule of thumb, a 3–4 day city break runs on about 1–3 GB, a one-week trip on 3–5 GB, a two-week multi-country tour on 8–12 GB, and working on the road takes about 1 GB a day, so 15 GB or more for two weeks.

In total, a 20 GB data allowance covers roughly 6,700 shared photos, 333 hours of social media and browsing, 59 hours of video calls, 250 hours of music streaming, or about 4000 hours of maps and navigation. Messaging apps barely use data.

Entebbe and first stay
Before arriving in Entebbe, save the pickup name and meeting point, the complete first accommodation address, entrance and contact. Keep the booking reference and onward instruction offline. Include the arrival night and the day you leave that first stay when choosing validity.

Jinja
For a Jinja day, save the booked activity organiser's exact meeting point, contact and return arrangement before leaving your accommodation. Keep the next address beside those details. Count the transfer and return day in validity, and allow data for coordination and occasional navigation.

Bwindi sectors
For an organised Bwindi visit, read the sector on the booking and match Buhoma, Ruhija, Rushaga or Nkuringo to the lodge or organiser's instructions. Save the meeting point, contact, lodging and return details offline before the visit. Do not rely on the broad name Bwindi to identify the correct arrival.

Plan around addresses and sectors
Cover the full stay and every transfer day, then size data for messages, occasional navigation and app calls before adding media uploads or connected devices. On a Uganda plan, hotspot is free, devices share the plan allowance, and Horizon does not throttle it. This data-only eSIM has no local number. Horizon offers Uganda country plans outside its Africa regional bundle; it has no East Africa regional offer, so Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania need separate suitable plans.

Frequently asked questions
What should I save for Entebbe arrival?
Save the actual pickup name and meeting point, first accommodation address, entrance, contact, booking reference and next instruction offline before departure.
How much does a Jinja day change planning?
Add the transfer and return day to validity and allow extra data for booking messages, coordination and occasional navigation. Save the organiser's exact meeting point offline.
Why does my Bwindi sector matter?
Buhoma, Ruhija, Rushaga and Nkuringo are distinct sectors. Use the one on your booking to follow the correct lodge or organiser instructions and save them offline.
Can I share data in Uganda?
Yes. Hotspot with the Uganda plan is free, and Horizon does not throttle it. A compatible phone is required; the phone and connected devices share the plan allowance.
Does the plan include Rwanda or Kenya?
No. The Uganda plan does not include Rwanda, Kenya or Tanzania, and Horizon has no East Africa regional offer. Choose a separate suitable plan for each country.
Does Uganda inclusion promise forest reception?
No. A Uganda country plan does not promise reception throughout a forest visit or at every sector. Save the sector, lodge instructions, organiser contact, meeting point and return details offline.
