100% worth it - Last-minute trips can be a gamble, but this one to Jinja turned out to be fantastic, thanks to Musah. From the moment we met him, he made us feel welcome and comfortable. His enthusiasm and expertise brought the journey to life, sharing stories and insights that you wouldn’t get from a typical guide. Whether it was exploring the Source of the Nile or stopping for delicious local food, Musah made sure everything was perfect. If you’re planning a trip to Jinja, make sure you have Musah as your guide. You won’t regret it!

Jinja city and the source of the Nile with musah - Our road trip to Jinja with musah was like how we expected it to be. He's a knowledgeable, interesting, listening and caring driver guide. We visited all places on the itinerary as planned by the operator. the boat on the lake and to the river was a gem not to forget meals were the best part of the tour. We recommend this trip with musah

Absolutely worth it! - We had the most incredible day trip to Jinja with Musah! From start to finish, he was the perfect driver and guide—attentive, knowledgeable, and always making sure we were comfortable. His passion for Uganda’s history and culture truly made the experience unforgettable. The drive was smooth and scenic, and Musah’s warm personality added a special touch. Every stop was perfectly timed, and he went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed every moment. If you’re looking for a truly remarkable road trip experience, Musah is your guy! Highly recommend!

Highly recommended this wonderful day trip - I booked this day trip with Musah at a last minute but Musah managed to confirm the tour ASAP. he picked me up from my hotel on time and drove me to jinja. He was a knowledgeable guide and he answered a lot of my questions during this long drive. Musah also shared a lot of interesting stories about the history and kingdoms in the central and eastern regions of Uganda. I would therefore recommend this roadtip to jinja

worth the price tag! BOOK THIS DAY TRIP - my last trip in uganda was a road trip to jinja and i needed someone with alot of experience and value for money. i read through this companies reviews and their ratings were high! i booked this trip at the last minute but they confirmed my tour instantly. on the following day at 6:30am musah was at the hotel to pick me up. the car was nice with air conditioning, we left kampala and stopped at ssezibwa waterfalls and continued to jinja having breakfast on our way! the boat ride was just enough because the guide shared stories, culture and traditions about the nile and the basoga people. after some hours on the nile river we went for lunch and then drove back to kampala. this was a well planned trip and musah was caring and ensured my safety on the road. thank you!

Expensive but ok experience - All in all - I would say that the experience is satisfactory. We paid about 315 GBP for 2 people, so you would expect quite high level of service. I cannot say that we received 315 pounds worth of service, it felt at times that we hired a driver not really a guide. Lack of detailed indepth response to our questions.
