Twaha was a great guide showing me important places in Kampala. Not only that, he told me a lot of the country's history. Some places I could have gone by myself, but being a white woman tourist, I wouldn't feel as safe as I've felt with him. Would recommend to anyone, but specially white women by themselves.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation! We’re glad Twaha made you feel safe, informed, and well taken care of during your time in Kampala.

My husband and I had a fantastic time on this tour! We really appreciated being able to explore different aspects of religion in Uganda, as well as the history. We were extremely moved by our visit to Kasubi Tombs. Twaha was an excellent guide and we truly enjoyed every moment of this tour! Highly recommend!

The Cultural Kampala tour was wonderful combining both historic and contemporary Cultural experiences. My guide Tahwa was terrific. Knowledgeable, interesting, flexible and I learned alot about Kampala and Uganda from him. I would highly recommend this tour and other tours done by Tahwa.

Twaha was late to start the tour but did a great job explaining the history of Kampala and the Buganda Kingdom. This is a great way to see some of the great sites in this city and he and his team of guides will give you all kinds of tidbits.

Thank you for your feedback and booking the experience

My guide, Twaha, was exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful. He knew in-depth the history of Uganda and the local tribes. The information he provided about the clans was very interesting.
I would strongly recommend this tour for anyone who would like to see the highlights of Kampala and receive an overview of country’s history and culture.
Twaha was most concerned about making sure I saw everything that interested me. When he found out I had not tried jackfruit, he even made a special stop to buy some so I could try it.
The day was excellent!
Response from Host, Feb 2022
