We'll pick you up from your hotel in Kampala at the indicated time to begin our tour of this fascinating city. We'll start the tour by entering the centre of Uganda's capital city, where we'll immerse ourselves in the city's history and culture.
The first stop will be at Mengo, or Lubiri, Palace, the historic official residence of the King of Buganda. There, we'll discover the peculiar history of the place and how it became a prison for political prisoners in the 1960s.
The next stop of the guided tour will be the Uganda National Mosque, located on Kampala Hill. Did you know that this impressive building is a skyscraper mosque? It was a gift from Colonel Muammar Gaddafi of Libya.
