Uganda - Bikes, Boats & Bananas - 14 Days

Africa | Uganda | Uganda

Uganda, the Pearl of Africa, home to some of the friendliest people you will ever meet. From Entebbe, we bike across forest clad islands, through Uganda’s rural heartland and villages that rarely see foreigners; camp on secluded islands both upon Lake Victoria and in the middle of the River Nile; experience East Africa’s adventure capital Jinja, on the banks of the mighty White Nile. This is a truly breathtaking trip. Enjoy awesome biking on little used dirt roads through some of the most stunning rainforest and rural farming landscapes you will ever hope to find; enjoy game viewing by bike in the seldom visited Lake Mburo National Park. Meet and chat with the local people or just sit back and watch life go on in true relaxed Ugandan style. Finish 14 days awesome biking in Kampala
