- Beach House Gardens - If you ever wish to escape the busy city life for a day and experience something really exciting, then this package is just the thing for you. It lets you explore the Lake Victoria Peninsular, learn about the lives of the people living there, enjoy the lush green views, and feel the refreshing breezes from the lake, all while riding your bike in comfort.

The truly exciting part starts here, where, for the next 3-4 hours, we’ll cover about 20-25 kilometers, following narrow dirt roads, and discovering the stunning beauty of the Lake Victoria Peninsular. There will be plenty of chances along the way to rest, have a snack, or take a selfie – all while enjoying the amazing views of the lake.

Beautiful excursion - Beautiful excursion with boat trip across Murchinson Bay to the opposite peninsula. This seems to be the most direct route for their inhabitants to Kampala. We saw beautiful tropical landscapes and got to know the “real” Uganda. Friendly and nice people who cultivate their land in the midst of the tropics and plant everything that the fertile soil gives. Great guide who always stood by my girlfriend, who hasn't ridden a bike for years and helped. A really great experience and so close to Kampala.

Nice ride through beautiful surroundings - Last week I made a mountain bike ride with guide Micheal. From Beach House Gardens we made the crossing by boat. We went into nature at a nice pace, beautiful paths, tough climbs and nice descents. It is a beautiful area with farmlands and villages where you pass smiling and waving children. Towards the end stopped for the local snack; Rolex. Michael has played well to the level and diverted the route slightly and extended it to 30k to make the ride even more challenging. Had a wonderful morning

Great activity in Kampala! - The bike ride was amazing! Nice to leave the busy Kampala and get some exercise in the nature. The distance of the ride was just perfect. The boat ride was nice and chill. Really recommend this trip!

Giving back to community. - I joined a fundraising bike ride organized by Cycle tours Uganda across lake Victoria to raise some funds for a baby diagnosed with a liver problem and needed a transplant.
The ride was such a beauty and energized by all members that joined. Looking forward to a longer tour since they also organize them.
Totally recommend this to all categories of bike lovers.

Sporty escape by boat and MTB near busy Kampala. - Very successful mix of boating and MTB.
Zaga is a very friendly and patient guide. He adapts his speed, the chosen paths and the moments of rest to the group.
Cycling through beautiful nature, between plantations and residential areas where smiling children are your biggest supporters ever. Unforgettable!

Fundraising Tour for a week Child - Excellent Guiding and Very Good Customer care. The trails and roads are all very nice.. We went to Banga Bay resort on the fringes of Lake Victoria which is in Mukono District. A very refreshing place!

Last day of out doors - On my last day after a very long hectic schedule of work in Kampala, I decided to book this tour to try and go out doors.
Starting with the boat cruise on lake Victoria to our starting point, we rode through single tracks with amazing views and scenic landscapes.
Beautiful area with lots of happy and endless smiles.
Totally recommend....

Family day biking - Just as we expected our family tour to be like, we had great time with Zaga as he led us well through some of the best cycling trails.
We enjoyed every single bit and we can't wait to book a longer one after our children are learned more of mtb handling.

Perfect bike in top condition. - Rented a bike from these guys and went on a solo bike ride on one of the islands. The bike was in very good condition and actually served me well.
I can recommend to anyone who would like to rent bikes from these guys.
