All the highlights of Entebbe ! - A great tour, we got to see all the highlights of Entebbe and even the rain didn't dampen the enthusiasm of our wonderful guide Pious, who also gave a good insight into life in urban Uganda. A lot of walking involved and the weather wasn't so kind to us, but the heavy rain showers are always followed by bright sunshine in this part of the world, so we soon dried out. The high point was the walk through the botanical gardens, with lots of weird and wonderful trees being pointed out. The rolex at the end were delicious and I've been able to recreate them perfectly in my home kitchen.

The real life of Entebbe - It was a very informative 4 hour walk through the market, the botanical gardens, a local park, down a very busy street.

Knowledgeable tour guide with great insight into the history and culture of Uganda - Great all around view of the city and botanical garden. Our guide not only knew about the city, country and its culture but was also very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna in the botanical garden. He was a wealth of information. And super friendly.

Wholesome must do activity in Entebbe - Awesome experience guided by someone with a genuine passion of their role. I got to learn so much about Entebbe’s rich cultural tapestry from Pius. Close to heart was Rolex tasting. Overall, my whole experience was great and I do recommend this tour to anyone interested in immersing themselves in experiencing authentic Ugandan culture . #culturenerd
