Jinja, well known as the “Adventure Capital of East Africa,” is located in southeastern Uganda, on the northern shores of Lake Victoria. It’s about 80 kilometers east of the capital city – Kampala (approximately 3 hours’ drive), and about 120 km from Entebbe International Airport (Approximately 4 hours drive).
Jinja’s location by the river Nile as it flows through the rocky outcrops made it popular for its adrenaline water activities (white water rafting, bungee jumping, kayaking, jet boating and river surfing).
Notably, however, the presence of the calm section of Lake Victoria, the green golf course, historical sites, natural forests, the source of the Nile, old temples, the clean, quiet streets with old structures in their original state and local markets provides for some of the top relaxing options to explore a beautiful world at your own pace!
Adventure Consults offers scenic sunset and booze cruises along the calm section of the river Nile.
Go explore the villages in Jinja while quad biking, cycling, horseback riding or on foot!
About one hour’s drive from Jinja city is the hidden gem worth visiting – Busowoko Falls. Quite Relaxing, beautiful nature and exquisite views!
Our tours to Jinja range from half-day, full day, 2 nights to a few weeks.
