Additional Information

Join us on this day-long exploration of the vibrant city of Kampala, the heart of Uganda. Our journey begins in the morning from your hotel. We’ll be navigating the city in a private car, although you could choose public taxi or even walk, if you prefer. Opting for public transport can offer a deeper connection to the local life as we’ll be using communal ‘matatus’ or shared taxis.
The tour includes visits to the city’s key landmarks including the independence monument, gorilla monument, the old taxi park, city arcades, downtown Kampala, craft markets, Gaddafi mosque, Namirembe cathedral, and you’ll get a glimpse of the nightlife while gaining insights into the Ugandan culture.
Being a half-day tour, we’ll also treat you to a traditional local meal at a local restaurant. Get a taste of ‘Luwombo’, a local delicacy, as well as homemade ‘Uganda rolex’, local gin and experience a ride on a ‘boda boda’.

Wonderful experience - I was expertly guided around Kampala on a comprehensive walking tour. My guide Winnie was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Among other things, we took in the National Theatre, Parliament Buildings, Independence Monument, The square and even ventured down town to experience the hustle and bustle of daily life and the taxi park before concluding at the National Mosque. Always attentive, Winnie made sure that we saw everything with plenty of time for photos and enough information to paint a picture of life in Kampala. At the craft market she helped me select some amazing gifts to take home to the UK and provided invaluable support in choosing items that my wife absolutely loves. Thanks for a wonderful experience. I certainly won't forget my walk around Kampala.
