Day Trip to the Source of the Nile River
We'll pick you up from your hotel in Kampala at 7:30 am and drive to explore significant natural wonders of the area, including waterfalls, forests, and the source of the River Nile.
First, we'll visit the Ssezibwa waterfall, known for its natural beauty and the legend that surrounds it, which speaks of its healing powers.
Next, we'll travel to the Mabira Forest for a walk through this forest reserve to learn about the many endangered species present. During the walk, we'll share stories about explorers who sought the source of the River Nile.
By midday, we’ll arrive in Jinja for a traditional-style meal. Once refreshed, we’ll proceed to the source of the River Nile and take a boat ride upstream to the location where John Speke discovered the Nile’s origin at Lake Victoria.
After this enriching experience, we will return to your hotel in Kampala, concluding the tour at 2:30 pm.
