If you are going to Murchison Falls National Park in Uganda Masindi town hotels should be your choice before your long trekking in the jungle. From Kampala the main road to Gulu has been resurfaced over much of the distance. Travel times to Masindi have been drastically reduced due to the improved road surface. The route passes through Bombo and Luwero where Masindi is signposted at Kafu (obvious by lots of hawkers wearing blue jackets and selling chicken and meat sticks). This is the first of 3 access routes off the Gulu Rd that proceed to Masindi. The occasional stuck lorries can be a problem but it is almost always OK and heavily used. It is the accepted main route into Masindi. This road is in the process of being paved late 2006/2007. The route to Masindi known as the Masindi Port road has now become the preferred route to the town. The second route opposite the junction for Masindi Port is a dry weather road also. The Masindi Port road was raised in the swamp area and so is less likely to flood. It is a very pleasant drive and as it is less used the surface is better than the Kafu road. If you find these roads closed proceed to Kigumba and turn left there. If you had planned to stop in Masindi only for fuel then purchase fuel in Kigumba as this road passes the junction to Murchison Falls National Park saving you time by no longer needing to proceed to Masindi town. The junction to the park is 4 km from Masindi town. For those relying on Public transport there are mini bus taxis that depart from the New Taxi Park in Kampala throughout the day. The Post Bus also makes this journey, as does the public bus. Mini bus taxis depart from the taxi park in Masindi to Kampala/Hoima when full. Transport to Wanseko/Lake Albert is erratic. Transport to Parra/Kanyio Pabidi is non-existent. You will need to hitch ideally from the junction to the park 4 kms from town on the road to Kigumba.
