Jinja is arguably Uganda’s heartbeat, it is a gem of unrivaled beauty, an asset to Uganda of humongous economic potential and a testimony to nature’s benevolence. Host to the World’s famous River Nile to anchoring Uganda’s major power dams hence developing as a well-planned, scenic and tranquil town. Jinja City is of a regional importance and is growing rapidly as a result of having over 80 industries that employ over 13,000 people owing to the presence of 3 Hydropower dams that supply power for both domestic and commercial use. therefore this trip enables you to understand the major pillars of the Uganda like Agriculture in Lugazi town where main cash crops like sugarcane and Tea are grown and processed, Industrialization in Jinja city, thick vegetation of Mabira, and most importantly to the source of the Nile River where L.Victoria meets River Nile. Such a full package at a very good affordable price really no one deserves to miss it. You must either grab it or book it for a friend

Very fun day trip to Jinja! The stops on the way to the boat ride were nice and the boat ride itself was relaxing and informative. The drive back was long but Musah was excellent at navigating traffic and keeping us comfortable in the car.

I thought the experience was great got to visit the water falls, ride through some tea fields and sugar cane. We got to take a boat ride out on to the lake and to see the source of the Nile. Had a great meal afterwards of a buffet.

The trip was a good day out of the city! Shared the trip with another passenger, that’s ok. Nasser took care of us and informed us about all the history and cultural aspect of both Ssezibwa Falls and the Source of Nile river. Was a good and enthusiastic guide! Ssezibwa was very beautiful and healing, although you need to climb some rocky bits! Wear good hiking or non-slippery shoes. The Nile river was so powerful, felt really humbled by the power of nature. Got to see some wildlife along the way. Bring some cash to buy some goods in the middle of the river ;) The buffet lunch was great, with the freshest tilapia I’ve ever had. Tbh you will spend most time on the road, but you get to see some interesting sights along the way. The trip was on a Friday so the drive return was very long and rocky due to traffic. I admit I got a motion sickness in the end, so advised to take travel sickness meds if you’re that easily affected.
