Our 5 days white water rafting tour in Jinja is an excellent package for travelers while in Uganda. Jinja is located in the eastern part of Uganda – 85km away from the capital Kampala. Established in 1907, Jinja is Uganda’s second largest town and former industrial hub. It is in Jinja where you find the exact spot where Lake Victoria releases its waters to the great river Nile (known as the source of the Nile). This will be a great day of more adventure.

You will also explore the Mgahinga gorilla national park which is found in southwestern part of Uganda and is located along the green, beautiful and volcanic mountains of Kisoro near Rwanda, the uniqueness of this park is that it has mountain gorillas and are most liked and visited by people/tourists from all over the world. There are the mountain gorillas, golden monkeys, and a number of birds. It takes approximately 6-8 hours' drive from Kampala the city of Uganda to Kisoro by road and 2hrs by flight.
