“The tour gave me a good overview of central Kampala, how the city is organised around Central Hill and what's there to see.

Walk Kampala’s markets, monuments, taxi park, and Gaddafi Mosque with a local guide on a four-hour small-group city tour.
“It was a perfect experience. The guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Kampala is a large city with some nice areas. The markets are very crowded and might not be for everyone, but I enjoyed them nevertheless. At the end, we visited the beautiful mosque, which offers excellent views from the courtyard and (I can only assume) even better views from the top of the tower/minaret. You can even climb to the top. Unfortunately, I had to pass on that opportunity, as I was still recovering from my gorilla trekking in the previous days. But then again, that might just be a reason to come back someday.”
