Great guide! Cool boat ride, beautiful waterfall, a delicious lunch! - Nasser was a great guide from the beginning to the end! We had a little money glitch and he worked with us and made it work out! He is a true gentleman and had a lot of information to share with us about bother the falls and the boat ride. We saw beautiful birds and also a lizard! We went to the meeting place of Lake Victoria and the Nile River and met some pretty amazing men on their water hut and got amazing pictures! What a great experience being able to see the community first hand and eat at a community restaurant! Great food! Would definitely recommend this trip!

Great day trip - I recommend this trip to get to see the source of the Nile. Along the way, you’ll er to visit a sacred waterfall and the tour works with local fishers for the boat portion. Nasser Was very friendly and helpful. Be prepared for a huge lunch buffet of local food. I had a few Jinga tours cancel on me as a solo traveler, so I especially recommend this one to my fellow solo travelers, as they confirmed and carried out my booking with no problems.

Fantastic experience - A fantastic one-day trip. Nasser is a very entertaining guide and knows plenty of details about the history and traditions of Uganda. We visited the waterfall, the forest and the Nile springs, ending with a delicious lunch of local specialities. I highly recommend this experience and this guide. A word of caution: allow plenty of time to go back to Kampala. Traffic jams in rush hour are unbelievable.
