Points forts

If you're on a short business trip to Uganda and can't spare much time for a safari, our 1-day Jinja tour offers a perfect escape from Kampala to explore three key sites. Starting after an early breakfast, around 7:30 am or later, from either Kampala or Entebbe to beat the traffic, our journey takes you through scenic tea and sugar plantations, as well as vibrant roadside markets bursting with colorful fruits and vegetables. Along the way, you'll visit three points of interest: the Sezibwa Waterfalls, where you can marvel at the natural beauty of the cascading waters; take a short hike in Mabira Forest, experiencing the lush greenery and diverse wildlife; and finally, head to Jinja to witness the source of the River Nile. Here, you'll enjoy a boat tour on the Nile River, offering stunning views and a chance to experience the magic of Africa's longest river firsthand as you make your way to its source.

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.
