About your trip

 The 1 Day Kampala City Tour takes you to Uganda's bustling capital. Kampala is the largest metropolitan area in the country, with a population of about 1.8 million people. Before the British and Arabs came to Uganda, Kampala was reserved as a hunting ground for the Kabaka.

It had one of the largest populations of Impala in the country, and that's where the name Kampala ("The hill of the Impala") comes from. The rolling hills, valleys, and wetlands were the perfect antelope habitat. Initially, the city was built on seven hills (Old Kampala, Kololo, Mengo, Rubaga, Nsambya, Namirembe, and Kibuli), but it has now grown to cover over 20 hills.


Kampala is Uganda's primary industrial and commercial city. The central business area is a hub of activity, with shopping malls, banks, forex bureaus, insurance companies, hotels, restaurants, casinos, and government offices. Although Luganda is the primary language spoken, the population in the city is diverse, and you can find people from all parts of Uganda. Almost evervane in Kamala can underatand and anenk Enalich The neanle are dram to Kamnala  

everyone in Kampala can understand and speak English. The people are drawn to Kampala because it is where all the action, social services, and opportunities can be found. The weather in Kampala is warm for most of the year because of its location along the equator, making it a perfect place to experience and appreciate the cultural diversity in the country.


This one-day tour of Kampala will take you to discover one of the most vibrant cities in East Africa. You will visit all the major attractions in Kampala city, including the critical commercial, educational, cultural, religious, and historical landmarks/centers. While visiting these landmarks and commercial centers, you will get numerous opportunities to mingle with the people.

Ugandans are extremely friendly and one of the most tolerant in the world. Uganda is the only country where refugees are given the same opportunities as citizens. It is infrequent to find Ugandans complaining about the over 1 million refugees in the country.


Although this one-day Kampala City Tour ends in the evening, a night tour can be arranged with one of our Guides to experience the Kampala nightlife. If you request a night tour, expect to be taken to the top nightclubs, casinos, and restaurants. Kampala is known as a "city that never sleeps," with people partying up to the wee hours of the morning from Monday to Sunday.
