We had Frida, and she was fantastic — so warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating!
As for the experience itself, this is probably the most comprehensive walking tour you'll find. We explored downtown, uptown, and central Kampala! We even squeezed in some shopping at the fabric district and the Craft Village. It was a privilege to explore places we couldn't venture on our own, like Owino Market. Stay close to your guide and you’re in for a great time!

I really enjoyed my tour with Fridaus! She is an amazing, fun guide and knows a lot about Kampala. I felt very safe with her walking through Kampala and I really enjoyed getting to know some other parts of the city. I would recommend doing this tour with Fridaus. Thanks a lot Fridaus! :)

I'm a solo traveler here in Kampala for a few days and wanted to explore the city. This was the PERFECT tour for first-time visitors wanting a taste of everything. There was no way I could do this on my own. Fridaus explained various parts of Uganda's history and showed me the main sites. She was so accommodating and even stopped by a bank so I could get some cash for the markets. She was confident, funny, so smart and a delight to be around! Very grateful to have had her as my guide - please do yourself a favor and book this tour!

Fridaus was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and helpful. Kampala is very busy and I wouldn’t have been able to discover on my own. I would hire her again.

We had a great experience with Fridaus. She was extremely knowledgeable about the city and showed us around Kampala with ease. We were able to see important monuments, the vibrant and busy markets, and the Ugandan national mosque with spectacular views of the city. Would highly recommend for anyone traveling to Kampala!
