On cost, Uganda is one of the more affordable places to visit: everyday prices sit at about 33 on a global index where the United States is 100. See how Uganda compares to 179 countries.

On power, you are in luck: both Irish outlets and Uganda's use Type G, so many of your chargers should fit as-is. Voltage differs too (240/415 V there versus 230/400 V at home), so check for a dual-voltage label before plugging in. Full plug and voltage guide for Uganda.
