To raft the Nile
Uganda is a beautiful country with a diverse climate. Because of its high height, the temperature is often mild. It also contains a large portion of Lake Victoria, including the outflow, which is the beginning of the Nile River. Or, more precisely, the largest White Nile tributary; the Blue Nile from Ethiopia is the second major tributary. As the White Nile flows from Lake Victoria, it crashes over a series of rapids and falls that are ideal for white water rafting. Dams on the Nile have resulted in the disappearance of several of the falls. Rafting expeditions used to last a whole day, but today they only last around half a day. But that half-day is exhausting! And most folks are ready to call it a day at that point away.
To raft the Nile, travel to Jinja, which is located on the beaches of Lake Victoria and the Nile's exit. Jinja is approximately about a two-hour drive from Kampala or the main international airport at Entebbe. There are plenty fantastic places to stay. In the morning, the rafting company will pick you up from your lodging. Jinja Base Camp (a terrific alternative if you're searching for a lovely lodging option in town) and Nile River Camp are where the two rafting businesses are headquartered (another stunning lodge with stunning views over the Nile). After breakfast, you'll be given the standard rundown of what to anticipate and advised to leave your phones at home (unless you want to gift them to the Nile). There is a special supply and rescue raft that will take all of your journey photos, which you can have for free later.
