Fantastic tour and great guide
My tour with Steve was excellent. His communication prior to booking was excellent, he arrived on time, provided really good insights on the way to the equator and demonstrated really great knowledge of the city and country. To top it all, he's such a nice guy as well. This will certainly be my first go to every time I return to Kampala. I booked a second tour straight after the first.

At the center of the world!
We didn’t have much time so the trip was short and we missed seeing the village life and other experiences, but we stood over the imaginary Equator line (at the center of the world!) and we enjoyed the journey thanks to our guide, Steve, who was so friendly and welcoming!

Amazing!!
Steve is an amazing guide and I had a great day. He also went above and beyond and offered another tour the next day. The equator trip is amazing and Steve filled in gaps left be the local tours explanations. Would highly recommend this private tour to the equator for a great day!

About a 30 minute stop is all you need to stand at the center of the world.
This is a quick stop. You can stand on 0° latitude without paying for an entry fee of any kind. There are a lot of tourist related shops around there to buy your souvenirs but mostly you just want your picture in the big equator circle.

Day trip to Equator line
Attended a trip with Steve to the Equator. Had such a lovely day and Steve was very informative. An experiment was shown how water goes down plug holes different ways depending which side of the equator you are stood on. Would highly recommended.

Nice one day outing
It was a real value for money your and very interesting to visit a place of this nature. Steve was a most pleasant guide and safe transporter. It would have been nice if the aircon was working. But glad that I could negotiate transport all the way back to my accommodation with him.
