The major attractions on this tour are:

This is one of the biggest slums in Uganda. It's an urban ‘slum’ situated on a flood plain between Makerere University and Mulago Hospital.

3. Independence Monument:
Learn about pre-independence Uganda and the Country`s road to independence up to where we are now.
4. Nakasero Market:
See and buy some fresh Fruits and vegetables from one of the biggest markets in Kampala. You have not tasted anything so fresh, sweet and yet organic.
5. Old Taxi Park:
Observe a thousand commuter taxis assembled in one place looking for passengers. These taxis form the backbone of public transport. There is a hustle and bustle. The Park is a hive of activity. The horn is honked every few seconds.
6. Owino Market:
Established in 1971, Owino Market is the largest open-air market in Uganda. It has over 50,000 vendors. Owino Market is popularly known for its second-hand clothes, but you can find and buy everything from the market including groceries, home appliances, shoes, bags and so much more at quite cheap prices!
7. Gadaffi National Mosque:
The Kampala tour is not complete without a trip to the Uganda National Mosque. Originally called the Gaddafi National Mosque, this Mosque is the biggest in the East African, second biggest on the Continent of Africa after King Hassan Mosque in Casablanca, Morocco. It is located on the top of Old Kampala Hill, one of the 7 most distinct of the 23 hills that make up Kampala.
It’s a two stories building and the mosque is on the upper floor while the offices are on the ground floor. It has large domes covered in brown mosaic and a minaret, (a prayer tower) rivalling the typical Ugandan ‘sky- scraper’ as a symbol of religious architectural superiority.
The mosque offers breath-taking city wide views, religious artistry, beautiful Islamic embroidery on the inside of the dome and wonderful architectural elements that pay tribute to a great deity
