Resplan
Förmodligen stannar den bästa high street street matmarknaden i Uganda. Vi slutar här för en smak av lokal frukost (rostade kyckling, rolex (äggplast) och grillat plantain)
Lite kända faller och härlig grön park på Jinja-Kampala motorväg. Falls fläckar en sammanflöde av dubbla floder med en stor historia och kulturell betydelse för lokalbefolkningen
Naturen går med en speciell guide och lär dig om skogens rikliga flora och fauna
Ugandas första upphängda bro bra för dagtid bilder och fantastisk utsikt över Nilen när man går över
Stor källa till floden Nilen; attraktionen för vilken Jinja är mest känd. Gäster kan också förvänta sig en båt med en timmes motorbåtkryssning till den exakta punkten där Nilen skiljer sig från sjön Victoria och börjar härstammar till Medelhavet. Gästerna kommer också att njuta av en överdådig lunch av en mycket älskad lokal delikatesse - friterad tilapia med chips
Gästerna kommer att njuta av en promenad i staden Jinja (Ugandas andra stad). Huvudgatan är fodrad med alla möjliga underbara autentiska konster, batiks, hantverk och souvenirer och lokalbefolkningen är mycket vänliga
En resa till Jinja kan inte vara komplett utan att stanna vid Kasaku teboet för ett miljon dollar solnedgångfoto, på enheten tillbaka till Kampala

We had Andrew as our guide, he was great. Told us the history of the areas we traveled to and was on time. He was engaging and fun. All the guides Gabriel, Hakeem and Onesmus were also great as well. It was worth every penny
First, I booked my trip really late and initially thought it was short notice for the company and I wouldn’t make it. But they came through for me, as a solo traveller, the pickup car was right on time and my guide Andrew gave me the best experience, from exploring local delicacies to even enjoying myself on the road and different places. My favorite was the Ssesibwa falls, lots of history there!!! And of course I got to experience the Nile beer on the Nile River, which was just beautiful, I learnt a lot of facts about both Nile River and Lake Victoria. The Jinja village tour was also a great experience and I was able to do some shopping as well. But, next time use a car with windows that are clear and not tinted, I would have loved to take videos during the drive but couldn’t because I couldn’t clearly see the outside. But, all in all it was a beautiful experience, I also recommend one to spend the night over in Jinja as this was a packed day from 7am to 6pm. Traffic was just messy too.
Dear Daisy, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. The feedback on the tinted windows is well received and is something we will work on going forward.
Arthur and Andrew have accompanied us on a great tour. The two are a great team where you feel very comfortable and very considerate. Our tour to Jinja with stops at Ssezibwa Waterfall and Griffith Camp was a unique experience where we learned a lot. Since we booked the tour in German Arthur was our main guide. His German is really outstanding. Andrew was an excellent driver with a great sense of humour, both know a lot about modern and historical Uganda themselves and like to tell about it. We would always opt for the tour again.
Great tour with Andrew all the day to/from Kampala. Really appreciated that we also met with local guides at each stop - Sezibwa falls, Mabira rainforest and the Nile river boat trip. The local guides had excellent local knowledge and were able to respond to all our questions. Also appreciated that we were able to stay longer at some sites, and that there was some flexibility in the programme. Definitely recommend!
Unfortunately we were unable to go on the tour as our booking was missed by the tour operator. Viator, the provider insisted that it was our responsibility to have contacted the local tour agent despite getting email confirmation & the money being taken from my credit card!!
This tour was amazing and we really enjoyed it. Our tour guide Williams is the best. He showed us everything and bought us some fresh mangos and bananas from the market. As we drove through the sugar cane plantations, he also asked a worker if he could have two sugar canes for us. Besides the activities included in this tour, it was the little things that count. We would definitely recommend this tour.
A great way to see the Ssezibwa falls, which besides being a nice waterfall has some interesting animistic offering sites. Don't forget to bring an egg for the python, otherwise he won't come out! The Mabira rain forest at Griffin Falls Camp (recommend the longer 2.5 hr circuit) is a highlight; I saw mandibees and red tailed monkeys, crested hornbills and other birds. The guides were very informative and enthusiastic about the reserve and eco tourism. The White Nile source is an interesting spot, but it's worth keeping an eye open for wildlife along the way. I was lucky enough to see otters and a cobra (!) swimming, but there should always be something to see. In the restaurant I recommend the Tilapia as it's fresh and delicious.
An amazing experience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Uganda. The tour guide made sure that each experience was memorable. The zip line is available at an extra cost. It was so fun
I’d highly recommend booking this experience. From a first timer in Uganda, this tour is a mandatory requirement for those coming. The tour was fun and I enjoyed every second of it.
Had a fantastic day trip to Jinja with Steven. Lots of interesting stops on the way seeing waterfalls, villages and Ugandan countryside. I especially enjoyed the walking tour through Mabira forest with its stunning flora and fauna. Steven was wonderful to spend the day with, as he is very knowledgeable and considerate.
