Near the banks of Lake Victoria, Kampala, the capital of Uganda, is a lively city with a long history. Before the British, the city was the capital of the Buganda Kingdom, and remains so to this day. The city sits on several hills, each housing an important government or religious building. Kasubi Hill is the home of the Kasubi Tombs, a sacred burial ground of Buganda Kings. The Uganda Museum sits atop Kololo Hill, and features a hands-on collection of traditional musical instruments.

Fantastic tour. Kennedy and Paul are outstanding. They go above and beyond (I won’t be able to eat again for days!!). We only had a short time in Kampala and this was the perfect experience - great food, authentic boda boda experience, and lots of local insights and explanations. Kennedy made sure we got to try everything. I can’t recommend it highly enough. These guys are really fantastic!!!

Touring the city with Steve was a great experience. We went through different parts of the city and really enjoyed the explanations and stories that he gave us as we were walking (history, culture, economical, and many more!) He is really knowledgeable and even taught us some words in Luganda. During the tour, you get to stop by a lovely craft market - among others - which is perfect to get some souvenirs or beautiful local arts. Steve also recommended a nice place to eat where we were able to enjoy some local food. I highly recommend touring Kampala with Steve!

Shared a wonderful day of cooking Ugandan food with two lovely hosts. With a lot of helpful suggestions I eventually learned how to peel matooke correctly and watched how to steam it in matooke leaves! Rosette made a delicious butternut soup. The goat stew was really good as was the groundnut sauce for the matooke. A mango salad and mashed Irish potatoes completed the meal. The cooking and the eating together was filled with lots of talk, laughter and sharing of culture.

Right before the departure to Africa, I had a very informative and detailed meeting (via zoom) with Coleb about the entire safari. I have a specific allergy to some food, but Coleb arranged that very well. The package was crafted to my needs and lodges selected perfectly! In my opinion, this is a #1 tour organizer in East Africa!

This was a lovely 7 day tour that I enjoyed very much with my husband. The guide Eddie was friendly, knowledgeable and patient answering our questions. He attentively spotted animals for us to watch. The accommodation places were clean and comfortable. Uganda is such a lovely country with friendly people and children waving at you wherever you. The nature there is very beautiful with lots of green hillside, lakes , forests and mountains. I loved the activities of people in the Bigodi swamp walk and their way of doing things . I loved the animals everywhere. The trip was really unforgettable. I would only recommend that the gorilla trekking activity be moved to the end of the tour because it's strenuous and could affect one's enjoyment of the rest of the tour especially if one gets injured. I also believe people should be made aware beforehand of the nature of this activity and how slippery or steep the ground is there in the impenetrable forest. EAJS really delivered all the program as I hoped for and as they designed. I only wish we had been able to do the Batwa cultural experience which was part of the tour and I was looking forward to it but we didn't have the time to do it unfortunately. Apart from that, the tour was great and I would recommend it to my friends.
