Warm clothes and proper boots are highly recommended, it is chilly and can be muddy!
​
Hiking in Rwenzori is rough, be prepared for hikes that can take 3, 5 or even 7 days, depending on the length of the hike that you choose. We recommend warm jackets, socks and gloves - but don't worry, all can be rented on spot.
MOUNT ELGON
At the borders of Kenya lie massive solitary volcanic mountains. Don’t be afraid, the volcano shield is not active anymore, it is estimated to be the oldest Volcano in East Africa, being 24 million years old. The mountains create special conditions for various flora and fauna and are home to 4 African tribes.
Tours are arranged for a minimum of 3 days but we recommend to take your time and enjoy it for longer. Hikes vary in their lengths and final destination, you can even climb the highest peak or dive in hot springs - in some of them, you can even boil eggs!

You will get introduced to the process from the very beginning to the final product and will have a chance to buy really unique gifts back home.
The tour takes about an hour and thus offers an interesting way how to see something new when you only have a limited amount of time. As a cherry on top, we will take you to a hidden viewing point over the river Nile!
ZIWA RHINO SANCTUARY
"Africa's Rhinos Paradise", that's how the Ziwa sanctuary is known. Originally, the Black rhinoceros and Northern white rhinoceros were indigenous to Uganda, unfortunately, due to poaching and mismanagement of their natural habitat, rhinos have been wiped out by 1982. The sanctuary puts all their efforts to provide a secure place to the highly endangered species and gradually works on the expansion of its population to be eventually re-introduced to the wild nature. As of 2010, Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary is the only location in Uganda, where rhinos can be observed in their natural habitat.
​
Tours can be arranged for a minimum of 2 days but we recommend to join the trip with Murchinson falls safari as it is comfortably on the same way.
MABIRA CENTRAL FOREST RESERVE & ZIPLINING
As the largest remaining block of semi-evergreen rainforest in the north of Lake Victoria, Mabira forests is home to over 300 bird species, 200 butterfly species and 9 species of primates. The forest has well-developed trails where you can hike, mountain bike, watch birds, picnic or have some fun on one of the 5 ziplines.
Tours can start from half-a-day but you can choose to stay over night and have a camping experience with a bonfire.
KYAMBURA GORGE AND CHIMPANZEE TRACKING
The breathtaking Kyambura Gorge is known to be „the valley of apes“ in Queen Elizabeth National Park. The gorge spreads over 11 km and it is an important part of the local wildlife, providing a source of water and shelter. Apart from chimps, many other monkeys can be seen as well as forest elephants and hippos in the river. This „underground forest“ is a bit of a challenge though, tracking chimps requires hiking up and down, the forest is dense and has a lot of wetlands and that is why it got its name in the first place – Kyambura means „got lost“ or „I couldn’t find it“. It goes without saying that following your guide is essential here.
As the Gorge is in Queen Elizabeth NP, the chimps tracking tours must be always connected to the visit of the safari. The tours start for 3 days.
KIDEPO VALLEY NATIONAL PARK
In the far north of Uganda, at the borders with South Sudan, the warmest and driest part of the country, a gem of Kidepo Valley is hidden. Endless savannahs crisscrossed by Narus Rivers are filled with red thorn acacias, desert dates, sausage trees or drumstick trees. Herds of buffalos, zebras and giraffes are roaming around, followed by sneaky cheetahs and leopards.
​
Due to the very remote location, Kidepo tours and game drives start from 4 days the shortest. Although going this far may seem a little bit stretched, you will be rewarded with a much less touristic experience of Uganda nature.
WHITE NILE RAFTING
The river Nile flows peacefully and calmly from Lake Victoria in Jinja. A bit more down the stream though, the situation changes. Rapids emerge, grow bigger, eventually making one of the finest grade 5 water rafting experiences. No matter how skilled of a rafter you are, the day trip on wild water will turn out to be one of the best adrenaline adventures of your life.
Rafting can be arranged for 1-day trip but it requires at least 4 people - if you are a lonely traveller, let us find you a group to join!
SIPI FALLS & COFFEE PLANTATION TOUR
At the foot of Mt Elgon, mother nature has struck again. This time with stunning falls. The Sipi falls consist of 3 falls with the highest falling down from the height of 95 meters. The falls are reachable with approx. 7km loop hike but beware, the hike is sometimes pretty steep! To balance the experience, the Sipi area is also known for its high-quality coffee, being home to a community of over 14000 member coffee growers.
​
Our trips start from 3-days due to its rather remote area.
BOAT RIDES ON LAKE VICTORIA & NILE
Ride a boat on the biggest lake on the whole African continent. Boat tours are organized from the early morning to the sunset, you can choose whether you want to spend a full day on the waves or just an hour's ride with a guide who will tell you all about local birds and fish. You can visit the Source of the Nile, the Samuka islands - home of over 85 different bird species and lizards - or ride down the stream of river Nile below the water damn!
KALAGALA FALLS AND THE BUGANDA CULTURE
Further down the stream of Nile, one can find the striking, yet a bit remote, Kalagala falls. They are told to be the strongest white rapids on the Nile (grade 6), offering a crazy experience of kayaking or rafting. On the way to Kalagala live many local communities of the Buganda kingdom, a place where many members of the community come to worship the Nile and the River God Mukasa. Have a look inside traditional houses, see how local pottery is made, eat with locals and join them in a dance. The music won’t let you sit still!
​
The Kalagala trip is usually for 1-day and in case the local community gets under your skin, you can stay as a volunteer in a local school.
KAKIRA SUGAR CANE FACTORY VISIT
Ever wondered where does sugar comes from? Well, let's find out together! The processing of sugar cane is quite a complex thing. In the Kakira sugar factory, you can see the steps from the very beginning to the final packaging.
Tours are half a day long and include a professional tour guide from the village of workers that basically emerged around the factory after it was built.
TUBING ON NILE
Wanna enjoy the river Nile without the extreme dose of adrenaline on rafting? We have an alternative, try the tubes! It's fun, it's safe and it's chilled!
​
Tubing on the Nile is about 2-3 hours long experience and can be arranged during the day or even at the time of sunset. There is nothing better than chilling on a Nile, drinking the Nile Special lager.
PAINTING WITH LOCAL ARTISTS
Feeling artsy? One of the best ways how to fulfil your creative needs and meet with locals is through painting! You can paint one of the "Ugandan classics" like a sunset on the river Nile, giraffes on a safari or Masayi warriors or just use your imagination and show local painters what's in you.
​
Painting is usually done in Jinja and takes about 3-4 hours. You can either keep the painting that you make as a souvenir or leave it with the community - the painters will sell it (or at least try to - depending on your skills) and share the profit amongst them.
​
VOLUNTEER WITH US!
Uganda is a beatiful country with beautiful people, however, that won't change the fact that a large share of our people live in poverty - a poverty that is hard to escape. That is why our tour company always gives back! In cooperation with our NGO "Hope for Children and Youth Uganda", we supply food to the poorest, help with their medical bills and teach kids in the most remote areas. If your heart tells you that you want to join our efforts, do not hesitate, we can always use a helping hand.
