I had a great day visiting Jinja with a boat trip to the source of the Nile (amazing), a forest walk and a waterfalls walk. My guide Yusuf was very friendly and we chatted all the way on the drive from Kampala and back again. He is very knowledgeable and professional with everything well organised for the day.

During my trip to Jinja with my friends, we had an incredible time exploring the natural beauty of the area. We embarked on a thrilling boat cruise along the serene waters of Lake Victoria, taking in the breathtaking views and enjoying the warm sunshine. For the more adventurous among us, we also tried our hand at rafting, navigating the rapids and feeling exhilarated as we paddled through the rushing water. We indulged in delicious local cuisine, savoring the flavors of traditional dishes and learning about the rich cultural heritage of the region.

My trip to Jinja with guide Joseph was really memorable. The scenic beauty of the area, particularly during the boat cruise on the River Nile, left me mesmerized. The diverse wildlife, including various bird species, the Nile monitor lizard, and other animals, made the journey even more enjoyable. The refreshing nature and the tranquility of the surroundings made for a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It was a wonderful trip that I will always cherish.
