7 DAYS PRIMATES EXCLUSIVE

The Nile is the world's longest river, and Uganda is fortunate to be its source, as it flows into the Mediterranean from Africa's greatest freshwater lake (Lake Victoria). It is one of Africa's most popular tourist locations, gaining the title of "East Africa's Adventure Tourism Destination." Some of the primary activities you may enjoy within Jinja near the Nile's source include white water rafting on the Nile's rapids, bungee jumping into the Nile, kayaking, motorboat tours, quad biking, and horseback safaris.

As it meanders through Uganda tourism sites like Murchison Falls National Park, the powerful Nile River offers many stunning views. Several falls, including Bujagali, Kalangala, and Murchison, are a must-see. In this safari, we aim to highlight the best Nile experiences in Uganda, as well as a few extras related to the environment and water.

The Sipi Falls are a series of three waterfalls that cascade down Mt Elgon from various locations. The guidebook – Lonely Planet – dubbed them "the most romantic waterfalls" because of their beauty.
