Its pretty much the only major Sudanese town where you can enjoy a cold beer and a scotch!
Con
The big profile name doesn't show that much!!!!!!!!!!
In a nutshell
Don't expect much as everything has to be fixed as yet.
Helpfulness
Juba can apparently be so humid and hot that you would think khartoum is even warmer thats why I suggest you take a walk to the bank of Nile at Apex or Bros which are some sort of camping grounds but only that you don't need to carry nothing but your wallet and enjoy a cold beer under the shade of the mango trees that stretch from from God knows where to.........lets say God knows where! And you can even enjoy fresh mangoes right from the tree under which you sit! You could even take a swim if got your swimming gear with you!!!!!

Helpfulness
Favorite thing: As of April, 2013
My friend and I applied for a SS visa at the embassy in Kampala. The process now takes 3 days, costs $100. But you can pay $25 extra to get it done the same day. I applied at 9am and were told to pick it up at 3pm. I took Baby coach bus leaving Kampala at 8.30pm and arrived in Juba at 4pm. The ticket was 70,000. We arrived at the border around 7am. Getting an exit stamp from Uganda was quick and easy. When we got to South Sudan side, we were told to get into a room to get a visa with people of other nationalities besides SS. I then showed an official there that I already had a visa so he took my passport, stamped it and let me in. It probably took like 2 minutes. But I had to wait til almost noon for others to get their visas. I'm not sure if you can get a visa at the border or not but everyone except us did get it there and it costs only 200 SS Pounds so it's a lot cheaper than getting it done at the embassy.
