Women-guided walking tour in Kampala with a local empowerment mission, mosque and markets, plus major monuments, all in about 4 hours.
“Great way to see Kampala with a local guide. We walked a decent amount, but it wasn't too strenuous and there were a lot of attractions around one area. I also appreciate the mission of the tour in working to get women more involved in the tourism industry. Would recommend :)”
A 3-hour Kampala walking tour through markets, monuments, and matatu life, led by an English-speaking guide for about $22.

“Superb tour of Kampala, explanation for the construction of Gaddafi mosque, walk up the minaret / magnificent views and explanation of Kampala’s 7 hills. Very interesting walkthrough of 2 local markets!”
A 4 to 5 hour guided walking tour of Kampala’s markets, monuments, and Gadaffi National Mosque, capped with big city views.
“It was a perfect experience. The guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Kampala is a large city with some nice areas. The markets are very crowded and might not be for everyone, but I enjoyed them nevertheless. At the end, we visited the beautiful mosque, which offers excellent views from the courtyard and (I can only assume) even better views from the top of the tower/minaret. You can even climb to the top. Unfortunately, I had to pass on that opportunity, as I was still recovering from my gorilla trekking in the previous days. But then again, that might just be a reason to come back someday.”
A 4-hour guided walking tour in Kampala with markets, monuments, and Kabaka’s Palace. Small group, English guide, $40 value.
“My experience with KitenjiTours was absolutely wonderful. From start to finish, everything was well organised, engaging, and full of insight. My tour guide, Pius, was a true delight. He was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating stories about Uganda’s history, culture, and current affairs. What made the experience even more special was how he weaved in personal perspectives on everyday life in Uganda, giving me a deeper and more authentic understanding of the country. We visited so many amazing places: Kabaka's Palace, Owino Market, the Old Taxi Park, Nakasero Market, the Independence Monument, and Bagala Craft Market. Each stop offered something unique, from history an...”

“Fun and informative tour. My guide, Matthew, was knowledgeable and entertaining. A good way to see Kampala, without question.”
1-day Entebbe walking tour with Nambi fish market, Rolex street food, botanical gardens, chimp conservation, coffee tasting, and souvenirs.
“The Entebbe town walk was a success. Amos is a happy and adventurous guy. I liked the botanical garden the most. Moreover, I learned a lot about facts from the city's history and more. Unfortunately we were not at the Chipanzee Trust which was on the programme. That's why I give it 4/5 stars.”
