Additional Information

Mabira forest, the largest tropical rainforest in Uganda, spans approximately 306 square kilometers. A guided exploration of this forest is extremely rewarding as it gives you the opportunity to sight various monkey species and a plethora of trees.

A lot of Uganda’s sugar comes from Jinja, thus, we will be viewing many sugar cane plantations.

In addition, as Ugandans are more of tea-drinkers than coffee-lovers, we will show you a vast Tea plantation.

Next, we will venture to Jinja city, the second biggest in Uganda with plenty to explore. We will delve into the secrets of Jinja, from local and craft markets, to trendy eateries, and we’ll also embark on a boat journey to the Nile’s source – the most popular tourist spot in Jinja. Here, you’ll see the exact spot where the Nile streams from Lake Victoria.
