What a phenomenal experience! I recently took a women-guided city tour of Kampala with Doris and it was easily a 5-star adventure. From start to finish, Doris was an absolute gem – incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about sharing the vibrant history and culture of Kampala. Doris didn't just recite facts; she wove stories that brought the city to life. Her insights into the local women's initiatives and the broader context of Ugandan society were particularly enriching and inspiring. It felt less like a tour and more like an immersive journey led by a trusted friend. She navigated the bustling streets with ease, pointing out hidden gems and offering fantastic local recommendations. I felt completely safe and comfortable throughout the entire tour, and Doris's warm personality made everyone feel welcome. If you're looking for an authentic, insightful, and truly memorable way to explore Kampala, you absolutely must book a tour with Doris. You won't be disappointed!

We had a great experience and felt fulfilled after this tour. It is nice to discover crowded places the first time with Fatumah. She really adjust the tour to the groups interest and pace. We definitely would book again with Fatumah!

Great tour. Steve knew a lot about history and was able to navigate the city well. He was also able to answer all of my questions.

We had the walking tour today with Sarah. It was a fun and nice experience, we got to see a lot of attractions throughout the city and Sarah was good at giving information and answering our questions. Overall just a very nice tour :)

Steve was a great guide, very friendly and knowledgable. I learned a lot not only about the sites we visited but also about the Ugandan society.

Really interesting and informative

Experiencing the markets and bus stands was just amazing for me. I highly recommend Twaha for a good mix of history and culture.

Great tour with Steve. I would highly recommend!

Lydia was great. She contacted us beforehand, and tailored the tour according to what we wanted. She was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Interesting tour, which was easily adapted to specific wishes and interests by the guide. So this was an uncomplicated way to get an individual first impression of the city. We learned a lot!

Kind, smart, super knowledgeable. Able to answer just about any question. But do ask questions!

Sara was our guide, she had a calm energy which I found soothing and excellent knowledge of history which is exactly what we needed. She had a confidence when walking on the streets that was reassuring, ensuring to help us cross busy roads and recommending some street food. She also brought us to good spots to take pictures that werent too crowded and much less risk of having your phone snatched. Very good tour, came away with more knowledge about Kampala!

Doris was a nice and professional guide. This tour for me was the only way to get to see areas of Kampala which I wouldn't go to on my own (I'm a girl travelling on my own). I love to visit a place and discover what locals do. Recommended!

Lydia was very good. She looked after us and catered to our needs.

Steve was very good and customised the tour to cater to our needs.

Doris and Sarah are very friendly people! We had a very good tour with lots of information about Kampalas sights. We felt very much taken care of, especially in the crowded markets and crossing the streets. Both guides answered the many questions competenty. We highly recommend it! It was a very nice atmosphere and we even got to taste some local pancakes.

The guides were very nice and open when we asked questions. Ask lots of questions.

We had the pleasure of having Steve as our guide in Kampala, and he was fantastic! He shared so many interesting and insightful facts about the city, which made our tour truly memorable. Steve was also very patient and took the time to answer all of our questions, no matter how many we had. What stood out the most was how he tailored the walk to suit our interests and needs, ensuring we saw the best parts of Kampala while also considering our preferences. His knowledge and flexibility made the experience both enjoyable and informative. If you're in Kampala and looking for a great guide, I highly recommend Steve!

Sarah took me to beautiful sights of Kampala. She made sure I get very good impressions of the daily life in Kampala and also introduced me to local food and street food (the rolex was the best experience). She had answers to all my questions and gave me a lot of information about the history of places and the country as well as on the culture, kingdoms and recent developments. I would always chose to walk with Sarah again.

I had a great day with Sara. She happily adjusted to the changes I had to make in my itinerary. Looking forward to another tour w Sara!🌻

I honestly did not expect to have such a perfect afternoon in Kampala out of all places I've visited in East Africa. Serah and I met at the mosque where we started the tour. She took me through different markets downtown and to other remarkable places in the city all the while feeling very safe and well taken care of in her presence. She also showed me her favorite coffee place which ai immediately had to try (get the cardamom and ginger cappuccino at CJ's). She's very knowledgeable about the city and beyond and the history of different East African countries. I had such a great time with her it felt more like being shown around the city by a friend than "just a guide". Thank you!

Coming from a Southeast Asian city, I found downtown Kampala to be intense, chaotic, and overwhelming in a way I’d never experienced before. But Twaha turned that potential anxiety into one of my best decisions during my visit. I was lucky enough to be his only guest that afternoon, so it felt like a private tour. We covered every spot Twaha proposed—plus my own request to try local food. We ended up having lunch at Owino Market, eating like locals among the crowd. It was truly one of my favorite moments in Uganda! Another highlight was diving deep into the bustle of Owino, the city’s biggest market. Twaha even encouraged me to walk in front, so I could feel a bit like a solo traveler while still having his guidance and security. The result? A crazy, intense, and unforgettable experience. Throughout the walk, Twaha was incredibly informative, sharing everything from modern-day Kampala life to the history dating back to Uganda’s kingdoms. Starting at the National Mosque’s minaret was perfect for a visual person like me—seeing the city from above while learning its background helped me piece everything together. He has been guiding visitors since 2016, so he’s definitely an expert—and yet he never seems to tire of explaining everything with genuine passion to each guest. He also communicated tipping guidelines right after my booking. And, honestly, it’s well worth it. Exploring the organized chaos of downtown Kampala is a must—and doing it with Twaha is something I’m proud of and will never regret. Highly recommended!

Steve is a amazing tourguide and a very cool man! He showed me a lot of nice places. But the most that I liked is, the we can talk openly and that he answered me so many questions about culture, religion and society in Uganda. Thanks for this beautiful tour, Steve!

I had an exceptional experience with Steve as my tour guide. He was punctual and professional from the start, which set a great tone for our day. Steve took me on a fascinating tour of the oldest university in Uganda, sharing insights about its various disciplines and impressive student enrollment. I was particularly intrigued to learn that seven presidents from across Africa graduated from this institution. Our journey began in a local impoverished neighborhood, where Steve demonstrated deep respect for the inhabitants. He shared his efforts to support the community through rice donations funded by his initiatives, which truly highlighted his commitment to giving back. As we explored, Steve introduced me to vibrant markets filled with food, clothes, and beautiful art. There was so much to see and learn! One of the most poignant moments was when he explained the Ugandan monument depicting a woman who was initially bound but ultimately holds her baby free—a powerful symbol of resilience. Thank you, Steve, for your thoughtful and informative tour of Uganda's history. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of this beautiful country!

Fatumah is an excellent guide in coordinating the tour and offers a lot of informs about the country and the city Kampala. I’m very pleased with the tour and the guide.
