5.00Zaynab was truly a remarkable guide. She showed me around Kampala from a local's perspective and provided me with lots of information regarding the history and culture of Uganda/Kampala. All the places she took me to were very interesting and would have not been able to reach on my own. Highly recommend taking this tour!

5.00I booked a walking tour of Kampala city centre. Habib was my guide. She met me at the agreed time and showed my around downtown. Felt totally safe following her around. It was great listening to all the information she had on the various places we visited. She had answers to all my questions and was fun to talk with. Definitely recommend Habib for showing you downtown. I mentioned to her that I would be interested in visiting the Palace and tombs. She recommened I also visit the Kings Parliament building and the Baha'i temple. She spoke to the office and they were able to arrange this trip for me the next day. This time my guide was Musah. He arrived to pick me up from my accommodation ahead of scheule which was great. Excellent tour of the above menitoned buildings. Driven to each one. He showed me where to sign in and I was given tours by the buildings staff. On our drives was able to give me more information on the areas we passed in Kampala. We finished with some traditional Ugandan food before he dropped me back home. A totally hassle free way to see so much in a short time period. Definitely recommended.
