Entebbe Airport, Entebbe, Uganda
Mabira, Mabira, Uganda This forest boasts of over 312 tree species, over 300 species of birds and 218 species of butterflies. Walking underneath this canopy of this great African tropical Rainforest, you will also see different species of monkeys and other wild mammals.
You will thereafter get back into the vehicle and go for lunch at the Sunset Hotel -a lovely restaurant perched atop a hill overlooking the Nile, serving very good food with chicken breast stuffed with spinach, a mouth-watering delicacy. The hotel has Ugandan, Chinese, Indian and Italian dishes. 120 minutes
Source of the Nile - Speke Monument, Jinja, Uganda After lunch you will take a short ride to the Source of the Nile – a quiet, beautiful place filled with fantastic tropical plants and palm trees. As you walk down the steps toward the Nile, you will be able to smell the flowers there.
As you stand on the Nile, you will hear the gurgling water as you watch native fishermen cast their nets on the longest river in Africa. You will then be taken on a Boat Ride to the actual source of the Nile, and beyond the lake where you will take great pictures for future memories and reference.
After the boat ride, you shall be driven to Jinja town, once the industrial capital of Uganda but today a residential town filled with numerous Indian-styled old structures in which many Indians lived before being expelled by President Idi Amin in the 1970s, some of whom later came back to reclaim their old properties. Jinja is a multicultural town dominated by native Basoga, mixed up with Bagwere, Baganda, Banyankore, Basamya and other eastern Uganda tribes, making it a fusion of a true Uganda town good for any visitor to interact with.

Enjoy a lazy ride on the river with a lunch after the boat trip. There was a tour guide who leads the trip and be willing to tip him. He was knowledgeable about the area and the bird life on route.
