While here you will enjoy the ultimate adrenaline experience is the River Nile bungee jump! The plunge from the platform into the Nile is 44 meters high. Bungee jumping all started with the people of Vanuatu in the pacific. These people had been throwing themselves from huge towers for centuries with nothing more than a few vines attached to their feet. It is probably the fastest growing adventure sport in the World.

In Uganda, bungee jumping is located at Jinja Nile Resort, Jinja. The jumper is attached to a specially constructed latex rubber cord. He or she then dives from the platform (over 11 Storey above the river) rushing rapidly to touch the water then bouncing back into the air creating a huge buzz of adrenaline and rounds of applause from nearby onlookers. The specially designed bungee platform suspended 44 meters above the stunning source of the Nile offers no limit to the fun you will have on the Nile.

Unsurpassed safety record (100%) with guides who are highly skilled with over 10 years’ experience at the most fun on the Nile.

The only two activities that my wife was interested in were culture encounters and birding, my wife persuaded me to go to Africa for a holiday, I never knew what enticed her but all in all I had to full fill my responsibilities. We arranged 10 Day Tour in Uganda with a reputable tour company which quoted for us their charges per person and per activity, accommodation costs were charged us basing on the destination we rested and slept.

After reaching Uganda, we were received by Nature Adventure Africa  Safaris and we were taken to  Karibu Guest House at Entebbe where we refreshed ourselves from and also slept. In the morning we embarked onto our soft seats 4×4 Land Cruiser  and we kicked off our journey to Kasese and this took us about 6hours on the way via Mityana-Fort Portal road.

Our first activity that day was culture encountering where we interacted with the Bakonzo who are the main settlers within the region. We walked with the villagers who briefed us about their culture and also took us through their day to day activities, showed  us how they prepare their local food. For all if you want to do culture encounters with the local people, try Ruboni area, we came across traditional healers who use local herbs to heal many ailments.

Having been cought up by time, we ended the activity at around 6:30pm and our tour guides took us to Ruboni Community Camp where we slept.  Very early in the morning after tea we went back to the park  and we did our second activity and this was birding and along the Riverines, birds such as the Rwenzori Turaco, Bee-eaters, Sun birds, Barbets, Robin, Long eared owl and Black eagle are seen here.

On our third day we resorted to culture encounters again and in this case we went to Muhinga village and we associated with many Bakonzo local,we did community tourism and in the process we even went to  Bulemba-Ihandiro cultural trail where the local people exhibited to us the different fire making skills, traditional dresses and the museum which is thatched in the Konzo style containing the implements used during the Rwenzururu Struggle.

Its our budget that cut us off but for all my wife didn’t want to go back to Kampala  because of of the wonder full tour Moses organized for us, but we had to go back to Kampala to arrange for our return to  America. Uganda is gifted by nature because of her cultural diversity and the uncountable bird species,so, You can only enjoy birding and culture encounters in Uganda and you enjoy as I and my wife enjoyed.
