Opzioni tour
Itinerario
Il tour inizia con la zona alta di Kampala Sights. Esplora i principali monumenti della città di Uptown Kampala, tra cui il Monumento all'Indipendenza, il Monumento Mutesa II, il Monumento alla Seconda Guerra Mondiale, il Palazzo del Parlamento, la Banca dell'Uganda (stima 1966), il Centro Culturale Nazionale dell'Uganda (stima 1959) e la sede Luminosa di Kampala Capital City. Visita il mercato di Nakasero, fondato nel 1895 e trasferito nella sua attuale posizione nel centro della città nel 1905. Lungo la strada, ammira i templi indù, tra cui Shree Swaminarayan Mandir, e altri siti culturalmente significativi.
Buganda Kingdom Tour. Dal CBD di Kampala, prosegui per il Regno del Buganda e visita il Palazzo del Kabaka (del Re). Esplora l'Armeria Idi Amin, visualizza le mitragliatrici storiche e sfoglia la pittura del palazzo mentre impari la ricca storia del Buganda. Supera il lago di Kabaka e visita il monumento Nantawetwa, un sito aperto solo quando il re viaggia dal palazzo al Parlamento Buganda. Prosegui lungo il Royal Mile, visitando monumenti come Bulange (Parlamento di Buganda), il monumento di Kabaka, la casa di Zakaria Kisingiri e i simboli del clan Buganda.
Moschea di Gheddafi e vista sulla città. Mentre proseguite attraverso Kampala dell'era degli anni '80, fermatevi alla Moschea di Gheddafi, un regalo del defunto colonnello Muammar Gheddafi. Sali sul minareto per una vista mozzafiato a 360 gradi delle famose sette colline di Kampala, ammirando monumenti come Fort Lugard (circa 1800 del capitano Frederick Lugard) e la Old Kampala Senior Secondary School, dove un tempo studiava il presidente del Ruanda Kagame.
Tombe di Kasubi (sito Patrimonio Mondiale dell'UNESCO). Successivamente, visita le Tombe di Kasubi, un venerato sito spirituale e culturale per il Baganda. Le tombe servono come luogo di sepoltura per gli ultimi quattro Kabaka (Re) del Buganda e rimangono un centro per la famiglia reale. Rituali tradizionali e pratiche culturali sono ancora osservati qui, preservando il ricco patrimonio del Buganda attraverso le generazioni.
Makerere University Sightseeing. Da Kasubi, guida attraverso la Makerere University, la più grande e antica istituzione accademica dell'Uganda (stima 1922) e la terza università più antica dell'Africa. Esplora monumenti come la Old University Library (stima 1949), il Main Administration Building (dal 1941) e il Education Monument.
Mercato di Kalerwe e Tempio Baha’i. Sulla strada per il Tempio Baha’i, passa per il Kalerwe Market, il vivace secondo mercato locale di Kampala, perfetto per scattare foto o raccogliere frutta fresca. Proseguimento per Kikaya Hill per visitare il Tempio Baha’i, un punto di riferimento spirituale unico in Africa. Prenditi un momento per una riflessione pacifica all'interno del tempio e vaga per i lussureggianti giardini, catturando foto memorabili. Avviso importante: il tempio è chiuso il lunedì.
Visita il Museo Nazionale dell'Uganda. Visita il Museo Nazionale dell'Uganda, il primo e più antico museo dell'Africa orientale, istituito nel 1908 e trasferito nel sito attuale nel 1954. Esplora i suoi ricchi spettacoli di storia, cultura e patrimonio dell'Uganda, un punto culminante perfetto del tuo tour della città. Dopo una pausa pranzo in un ristorante locale, proseguimento per il Santuario dei Martiri, un importante sito spirituale e storico che commemora i martiri cristiani dell'Uganda. Concludi il tuo tour al Museo Nazionale dell'Uganda. Successivamente, lasciati al tuo hotel di Kampala, oppure opta per un trasferimento fuori città a un costo aggiuntivo.

One of my favorite tours I’ve ever been on. Very informative and entertaining. An amazing memory I will remember forever
Thank you, Brian, for the Review. We appreciated having you
Thankkkk youuuu very much for the wonderful and informative tour Catherine! We all really enjoyed our tour to Kampala Uganda
Thank you for booking your tour with us. We are glad you enjoyed it
If you're looking for an unforgettable tour experience, look no further than Mathew! From the moment we met him, it was clear that he wasn't just a guide, but someone truly passionate about sharing his knowledge and love for the area. His enthusiasm was infectious. Mathew’s depth of knowledge was impressive; whether it was historical facts, local legends, or hidden gems, he had an answer (and often a fascinating story) for everything. What really set Mathew apart was his commitment to making sure we saw as much as possible. He was always aware of time but never rushed us, adapting the tour based on our interests and ensuring we didn’t miss a thing. I can’t recommend Mathew highly enough—he truly goes above and beyond to make sure you have a memorable, enriching time.
Dear Guest, thank you for taking time off your schedule to write this amazing review. Mathew had a great time showing you around our city. Thank you for Booking with Gazelle Safari Company
Terrific day tour of Kampala. Hillary was a fantastic guide. He shuttled me around to the main sites and also customized the tour. Very interactive and interesting day. Highly recommend.
Dear Guest, Thank you for the review.
This experience was amazing! Mathew was such a patient and informative host. His excitement toward Ugandan history, culture, etc. is evident; he is bursting with energy and knowledge. I didn’t study Ugandan history well prior to my trip to Kampala, and after this experience I feel like I have a good understanding and an interest in learning more.
Dear Caitlin, We would like to thank you for choosing Gazelle Safari Company and we are glad that our services not only met but exceeded your expectations.
Fun and informative tour. My guide, Matthew, was knowledgeable and entertaining. A good way to see Kampala, without question.
Dear Kelly, Thank you for the review and we are glad you enjoyed your trip
We took a Kampala city tour and it was excellent. Matthew was helpful, funny and very enthusiastic. We loved his company, he’s really cook. We had a hangover because of partying the night before but he made our day🙂
Hi Laszlo, thank you for choosing Gazelle Safari Company to show you around Kampala. Mathew says only good things about you. He also enjoyed the trip.
I didn't have a lot of time for sight seeing in Kampala and this half tour with Gazelle Safari was the best decision ever. Mathew was my guide and he was all that and then some more. He was very polite and professional the entire time. He didn't rush me through any of the sites we visited and was very accommodating as-needed. He is very knowledgeable and learnt so much about Uganda than I would have ever thought! He is very passionate about his job too. Honestly I could go on and on about my experience but truly it was 100%. You should def book this tour and ask for Mathew. He will make you feel like you are the most important client ever!
Thank you for booking with Gazelle Safari Company and also for taking time to write this beautiful review. We are sure it will help other potential clients make the right choice.
Think you know all about Kampala? My multi-bachelors guide Mathew/Matthew will definitely suggest you otherwise (he has degrees in digital marketing, human resources, and very soon, law). To name but a few, knowledgable, critical, friendly, hospitable, are some prime qualities of Mathew. Despite only having spent half day with Mathew, I had gained a lifetime of knowledge and a lifelong friend. I am constantly overwhelmed and impressed by his passion in Kampala's history, his insights in Uganda's social situation, and his interests in sharing with me Uganda's culture. From our visits to the Kabaka's Palace, to our visits in the Uganda National Mosque and the Uganda Museum, Mathew provided all the essential information that I needed to know and provided critical answers to each question that I wished to know. Mathew knows all about the city and is also a global citizen who has in-depth knowledge of other countries, very likely even your own home country! You will be amazed as you engage in constructive conversations with Mathew. I will also have to thank you Gazelle's founder Annabel/Ann for arranging and organising this half-day tour on my last day in Uganda. This is certainly a perfect semicolon (not a full stop!) to my 8 days Uganda trip. As a solo traveller, there was never a dull moment with Mathew, who had also been entertaining, talkative and caring. Words simply cannot encapsulate how professional Mathew is. If you want something extraordinary, Mathew is the guide-to-go.
Dear Chloe, We are delighted to read this review from you. It is the perfect description of our team member Mathew and we are so proud to have him in Gazelle Safari Company. We are glad that he made you fall in love with our city. For now it is not good bye but see you Later !
I took this tour on my own after arriving in Kampala, and it was a great way to explore the city. I learned a lot about the history and culture, and I had a great experience! My tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was by car and very comfortable, it was on time, and it was very easy to arrange/schedule.
Zoey, Thank you for choosing Gazelle Safari Company for your Kampala City tour and thank you for taking time to write this amazing review. Your Guide Mathew enjoyed showing you around and said you were a lovely client!
