- H147PVsamm0 contributionsExperience of a lifetime!Spent 12 days in Uganda exploring the wildlife through safaris and trekking as well as experiencing the landscape on bikes through plantations, small villages, and mountains. A wonderful and unique way to experience a country. Thank you to Zaga and Robert for your wonderful guiding and support through the trip!Written January 20, 2025
- Culture637645370300 contributionsget some physical activity & adrenaline while engaging with the people and environmentThe 3-hr bike tour was a highlight of our trip to Uganda. Our guide Michael was excellent, and the terrain, views, and communities we saw were captivating. The boat commute across the lake was a perfect way to start and finish the ride. Loved stopping for a Rolex to interact with the locals. The bikes were functional with minor maintenance items (mine had a cracked/wobby pedal and the handlebar grips were loose). Highly recommended as a way to get some physical activity while engaging with the people and environment.Written January 12, 2025
- kisitus20240 contributions2 days bike ride in Lake Mburo National Park.A very good way to get away from the city center of Kampala for a two days cycling tour in Lake Mburo National Park. A very good and deserving stop at the equator for coffee and some pictures. Continued to lake Mburo and wow, this was more than we expected. Rides on the boarders and in the park were very very good and suitable to everyone. I recommend this for all age groups.Written December 1, 2024

This trip is a challenge! You need to be fit to do it. The strong sund and the bumpy roads made 70 k on the bike a 10
Hour full day trip.
I was proud to finish. That being said, our guides was excelent. The nature was beautiful. A day to remember. Thank you.

James is an excellent tour guide. It was a tough ride, I got quite dehydrated, so make sure to bring at least 3l of water (I brought 1.5l and the tour guide had 1.5l included) as this was only just sufficient!
The falls were brilliant, and it was relaxing to rest at the falls at about the midpoint.
After the falls it was a steep climb to the Tea plantation but well worth the views following. The Rolex was the best I've had!
Would definitely book again, although the trip was slightly pricey for a student like me.

Great tip to Ssezibwa falls, which has an amazing Buganda legend behind it. Roads were nice, glad that we joined the day before the rainy season started though!
We rented bikes with Cycling Tours, which were well maintained, sturdy bikes.

A really nice way to get out of Kampala and into nature very quickly - and be sporty at the same time. Zaga is an experienced guide and knows how to adapt the pace to the level of those who join. The option to rent a bike is also very useful. I enjoyed the biking a lot and would definitely go again.

Had an amazing mountain bike ride to the water falls, a cultural site for the Buganda region in the central of Uganda.
Very good except for the rain drizzles that kept falling without stopping hence making the ride abit longer due to many stops.
I recommend this not to be done in the rainy season.

My family booked this trip and since we love cycling, we wanted to do this while still in Uganda.
This ride to the falls was abit challenging but we made it all. The falls are also spectacular not only for their beauty but also the best stories behind it.

Great trip, a reasonably tough ride given the bumpy surfaces and hilly terrain but definitely worth it. Falls were great and plenty of opportunities to stop for drinks and snacks to refuel along the way. Would recommend!

A great way to be introduced to Uganda cycling through communities, plantations and scenic views. The water falls are a special cultural site to the people in the central of Uganda.
For this bike ride, one has to be somehow fit if you wanna enjoy. a challenge you have to tackle because at the end, a great reward awaits and that the falls.

This is not a tour for the faint hearted or unprepared. Riding 74km over rough roads is extremely demanding. It is not a casual day out.
The tour itself is very basic: be prepared to bring or buy everything you need except a bike and a helmet. Frankly, I would not recommend doing it without proper knicks and possibly a Lycra Jersey. You'll feel every bump after 10 km and it gets pretty warm by mid afternoon. Still, the scenery is exceptional and you'll get a grass-roots experience of the stunning Ugandan countryside. And you get bragging rights for having survived a proper endurance test.

Hello, thank you so much for your feedback as it’s highly appreciated. Apart from the bike and helmet, one also gets 1x soft drink and 1x snack(Rolex)
As stated, the ride is demanding since one really has to be prepared.
