City tours

Explore the history of Kampala, Entebbe and Jinja cities – first built and developed during British colonial times; as well as newer cities such as Masaka, Mbarara and Kabale. 

Visit cultural and religious sites like the Kasubi Tombs, Gadhafi Mosque in Kampala as well as historical sites.  The first parliamentary building in Entebbe and the old Nile Bridge in Jinja are some of the must see physical pieces of Uganda’s history.

Major cities have diverse cultures and religions harmoniously living together as bustling cities present various opportunities. 

Ugandans are known to be some of the friendliest people and are welcoming to visitors from far and wide, creating a safe environment for tourists. 

The cities are well known their vibrant night life and party culture as the locals can literally party for 24 hours.

This mainly because Ugandans are known to be the life of the party, so whether it is the big fancy hotels in upper Kampala or the small kafundas and kiosks in Mukono there is always an opportunity to have a good time and due to Uganda’s high levels of security, one is able to have a good time and be safe

Speaking of culture, the region is known for being a melting pot for cultures, in terms   tribes, religions and even nationalities that live peacefully with each other, such diversity simply engulfs tourists in the different cultures. So there many things to look forward to in the East expect the beautiful sunrise every morning.

Kampala City (NIGHT LIFE EXPERIENCE)

Experiencing Kampala during the day and at night are two very different experiences.

During the day is when it is advisable to visit all the culturally and historical sites in all of their beauty but at night Kampala transforms into a partying hub and just like any other thing in Kampala the nightlife has lots of different things to offer to accommodate client’s tastes and preferences.

There places where one can simply sit and enjoy a drink or two like Rugby Club, bars which have a laid back feel with good music like Panamera, sports bars for sports fans to watch matches accompanied by a cold beverage like Arena Sports Bar and Grill, and a number of high end bars like the Alchemist for a more intimate setting but if you what more high energy partying that can go till morning there a number of posh clubs like Illusions where you can party the whole night away. All in all there is something for everyone.

Please note that Kampala is big city and due to inconveniences like traffic jam not all sites may not be visited in one day and secondly for a unique experience around the town we recommend a boda boda ride for a truly Kampala experience with your safety being a priority. All in all Twiga Africa aims for your tour of Kampala to be tailor made to your expectations.

Jinja

Jinja, is a major tourism and business hub in Uganda. It is mostly known as the home of the Source of the Nile. The Nile runs transverse through the area making tourists move around the region trying to get a glimpse of this ‘Beast Of Nature’.

The rise of tourism in the region has birthed a competitive hospitality industry in Jinja as there are plenty of hotels, resorts and rentals ready to accommodate large numbers of tourists.

However, it is often neglected that Jinja is a major driving force of Industrialization in Uganda which can be seen with the presence of numerous industries in the area.

This has made it a major business destination in East Africa, and as the saying goes ‘Work hard, play hard’ summarises Jinja as it is home to many entertainment centres like bars and restaurants that are flocked by corporates after a long work day or by party goers from far and near during weekends. Tourists are more than welcome to join in on the fun, Jinja truly has something for everyone.

Mbale

One of Uganda’s biggest business destination in Uganda. This is mostly because of its proximity with other business hubs like Jinja (2 hour drive away) and Malaba (one and a half hour drive away) that enables lots of people to swarm the area for trading and other business transactions.

This has created a mixture of cultures in the region as people from different ethnic backgrounds come to the district to take part in business activities.

This mixture of cultures only enhances the tourist experiences as there is more to engulf yourself in like the different delicts spoken or the different cuisines available.

The constant in flux of visitors in the area has encouraged the development of accommodation and other hospitality facilities like hotels and restaurants. The visitors that come to the area for business and tourism are to be credited with unique nightlife in the area it is popular for
