This was my second tour... - This was my second tour with Nasser on my trip to Uganda. The drive to the equator line took around 2 hours but this passed by quickly as Nasser is a good conversationalist. Whilst there is not too much to do at the equator line, it was still nonetheless a worthwhile experience. After this we headed to a local drum making factory where it was explained in detail to me the process of making the drum. They also performed a dance for me which had a variety of local instruments which was thoroughly entertaining. Nasser again drove in a safe manner and accommodated my request to try some more local fruit from the market vendors along the way. I chose to skip lunch so I can’t comment on that, but albeit a quite short day, I felt like it was worthwhile and enjoyed myself and Nasser’s company.

Educational and exciting once-in-a-lifetime visit to the Equator! - Nasser was a phenomenal driver and tour guide! I learned so much from his expert narration during the drive to/from Equator. He linked us quickly with local guide who performed the “experiment” about the Coriolis force - with time for shopping for local handicrafts and a latte from the equatorline cafe. We also stopped to visit artisans crafting traditional drums 🪘- that also included an impromptu concert. It was a most memorable and enjoyable excursion from Kampala. So glad I booked this tour. And many thanks again to Nasser for the expertise!

Review - The visit to the Quaddafi mosque was revealing, likewise the visit to the King's Palace. The visit to the torture chambers made me sad. I learnt a lot. The Equator visit was epic.
As usual Nasser was on point. He's very knowledgeable and smart.

Wonderful Excursion - This is a wonderful experience. The African drumming was great and such friendly people. The Equator trip is interesting to see and you must do the little experiment. It's also a great Ugandian photo opportunity. I was looked after from start to finish and nothing was too much trouble. Thankyou

Equator Great Outing - Outstanding Excursion. The Equator Point was fun & informative and a nice touch was the Certifate presented. The stop at the Drum makers was an added treat especially when did a playing demonstration (and mistakenly used me 😂). TheGyide escorting me was knowledgeable and drove very safely given the heavy traffic. All-in-all a great tour

Long Trip for a foto stop and shops - 4 hours to drive for a 5min Show and Fotos on a N/S Stone! Worth to do? For me was ok, also because ate first time Rolex....driver was good and nice, but.....I was charged for a higher price, because Single, but there was an additional person/tourist; she did not disturbed but not fair to charge me Single price.
Did not get a bottle of water during this long trip, despite it was very hot...would have been nice
