Industry experts have welcomed the UKs lifting of its previous advice against all but essential travel to Ugandas Queen Elizabeth National Park QENP an advisory that severely restricted tourism to the park since its implementation more than two years ago.
The advisory in place since the October 2023 killing of a UK man and his South African wife along with their guide was lifted on November 2.
ATTA said the positive development followed ongoing dialogue within the sector. This included an ATTA-hosted roundtable in September when tourism stakeholders engaged with the UKs Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office on the business impacts of the previous advisory.
