The real Kampala - Nasser and Malik showed great enthusiasm and passion in my walking tour around the mosque and markets in Kampala. A humbling cultural experience. Not to be missed. At the end of the day I left a bag with goods I bought at the market in the back of their company car. Only realising later and contacting them they were happy to drop the bag back to me at the hotel without fuss. Wonderful service.

Highly Recommend! - This was a fantastic experience! Nasser is well-versed in both the history and culture of Uganda. We visited several monuments, the mosque, the city's largest market, and the local university. I couldn't imagine a better way to see the city!

Kampala’s Best - There’s no better way to introduce yourself to Kampala than by going on this tour. My guide, Malik, was very friendly and informative. He offered great insight into a city that is often misunderstood/underappreciated. Great tour! Highly recommended!!

Another insight into Kampala - We started the tour from the independent monument first. We walked down area by area by then until the market and the mosque. It was really fun and unique to join as like we are getting closer to see the living habits of the local! It was a really good and knowledgeable experience!! Big thanks to Nasser, he is funny, knowledgeable and took good care of us. We all learned so many things from him✌🏻✌🏻

Amazing first day in Africa! - Our tour guide was Nasser. We had an amazing time in the city, we visited the Nakasero Market and got to experience a ton of culture. People were so kind and welcoming. A bunch of the high schoolers I am chaperoning bough different fruits. After that we went to the mosque and went inside. Nasser explained all the BBC cultural history inside of the mosque and then recited part of the Quran for us. It made me super emotional. After that we walked the tower and got the best views! He explained what the 7 fundamental hills of Kampala were. After that we enjoyed a great feast at 2k. It was an amazing day!

Great experience - Thanks to Malik, we saw different places of interest and we walked through areas where we would not have dared venturing by ourselves. Malik is very patient and knowledgeable and this tour gives a real understanding of Kampala's bustling life. I would definitely recommend it.
