HOW TO GET TO OM HOSTEL?

Like any other Resorts on lake Bunyonyi, its easy to access our hostel to. 

From Kampala to Kabale

If you are travelling from Kampala, first get to the bus park.

There are many bus companies traveling to Kabale town “South Western Uganda”. 

It takes 7-10hrs and we recommend Jaguar and Gateway buses. It’s better to start from 8:00am or 9:00am from Kampala. Price ranges from 30,000UGX -70,000UGX depending on the season.

From Rutinda, Lake Bunyonyi to OM Hostel

Once you arrive at Rutinda boat landing at Lake Bunyonyi, there are many motor boats that know our hostel, price ranges are between 15,000-30,000 UGX.

Also depending on the time, we recommend that you ask us to assist you on affordable transport from Kabale to our hostel. Day time transport is cheaper and prices increase at night. Take note of that.

If you feel like you want to enjoy a slow ride on the lake, we will arrange for you a free dugout canoe ride to OM hostel. It takes you 40-50min to arrive.
