It’s popularly know as a home to many many refugees from different countries like Somalia, D.R.C, Ethiopia, and South Sudan. It’s a very busy Area and it give a very live experience to our clients since they are able to walk through the village while cheering up to some lovely people here who are found busy on their jobs.
This is a large local market where over 2000 vendors are employed dealing in 2nd hand goods like clothes, shoes etc. it’s an eye opener for our clients
This is the biggest tax park in Uganda where most of the public taxis in Kampala pick up and drop off their clients. These taxis take different directions. It’s therefore very amazing to visit and experience how travelers identify the respective taxis taking their respective directions
This is a metallic free building with nothing like a metal in it, it’s said to have been built using only concrete which makes it totally unique from other buildings in Uganda. Therefore our client will be able to take a 20min visit here and also take some pictures inside and outside. It’s so eye opening especially to those who never been to the Hindu temple before.
This is basically a food and fruits market where most people go for shopping! Here travelers will get to see a variety of Ugandan local food which is gathered from remote areas of Uganda and brought here for sale.

5Great way to see the bustling heart of Kampala.
Nasser was my tour guide, gives good insight into Uganda’s history and culture on a very informative tour. I highly recommend it. Beautiful views and a tour through the city's history. Overall, it was a good introduction to Kampala and seeing different sites. Enjoyed the Rolex!
5City Tour with Spontaneous Lake Victoria add on!
Guides gave us a lot of useful knowledge, not only about Kampala, but about Uganda itself as well. At our request, they also managed to extend our tour and organised a quick trip to Lake Victoria, with a boat ride and an island walk. It was a great experience - definitely would recommend it to people who want to go 'off the beaten track'
5Great guide and overview of Kampala
Abdul Shakur was an excellent guide! He knew endless amounts about Kampala and answered all of my questions. He kept me safe and informed the whole time. The city is hectic so I really appreciated his guidance. I enjoyed the overview of the city as a whole and would recommend him as a guide to anyone!

Exceeding all expectations, walking really is the best way to experience the city—it blew me away! Thanks for a great day!

About Kampala
Kampala is Uganda's capital, spread across low hills near Lake Victoria, with royal tombs, cathedrals and mosques, busy markets and a lively music scene.
Kampala is built on a scattering of hills in southern Uganda, a short distance north of Lake Victoria. The Kasubi Tombs, the burial ground of the Buganda kings, are a World Heritage Site. The Uganda Museum is one of the oldest in East Africa and holds musical instruments and crafts. The hilltop Namirembe and Rubaga cathedrals, and the National Mosque on Old Kampala Hill with its minaret, each give views over the city.
Top-ranked sights in Kampala: Uganda National Mosque, Nakasero Market, Lake Victoria.
