The Kayak the Nile base, where we begin most of our kayaking trips and tours, is conveniently located on site at the Nile River Explorers campsite in Bujagali. The campsite overlooks the calm waters of the River Nile and has one of the best sunset decks in Uganda. The lively bar and comfortable clean accommodation provides the perfect surroundings for relaxing after a long day kayaking on the water. Options for accommodation include camping, safari tents, dormitories and private rooms. We also recommend having a look at the newly opened Kalagala Site. It’s got a wide range of accommodation options from their beautifully upmarket Wild Waters Lodge with luxury tents overlooking the rapids to the more basic Overland Campsite with safari tents, dorms and camping, they are sure to be a fit for any budget and all needs. We offer all our activities from here as well. Please note it’s about a 40min drive from Jinja town. If you are joining us for an introduction to whitewater or multi day course both accommodation options are ideal places to be based. If you have any other questions about accommodation or would like to reserve your nights at either options please include it in your message when you book.

We try to make paying as easy as possible at Kayak the Nile. Most people choose to pay in cash to avoid the bank surcharges, however card payments are also available. We Accept: Ugandan Shillings (UGX) Kenyan Shillings (KSH) US Dollars (Unmarked, USD dated 2009 and above) British Sterling (GBP) Euro

All you need to bring for our introduction to whitewater day and other activities is yourself and: Clothes you don’t mind getting wet in (shorts, t-shirt, swim wear) Any medication you may need (e.g. asthma pump, epi pen) Dry clothes for afterwards. The guides all carry a first aid kit on the water where your medication will stay dry and easy to access. The following will make your day more comfortable: Suncream – high factor and plenty of it, the river is notorious for washing off ‘waterproof’ suncream. Bottle for water – You can fill this up from our office before you leave if you don’t have any water. If you need to leave belongings with us whilst on the water, you can do so at our office, which is manned during the day and locked when unoccupied. We also have a safe here for valuables/small items such as keys, phones and wallets. For those who have booked a holiday/coaching course with us we will provide you with a kit list if you need to bring anything more than the above.

Water Levels: Water levels are consistent all year round here, because the Nile is dammed just after it leaves Lake Victoria. In an agreement between the countries that the Nile flows through, there’s a minimum flow that must be released from Lake Victoria to feed the Nile into Egypt. This minimum flow makes for great kayaking, and if the dam does release more water for a few days then there’s still awesome kayaking. There’s daily fluctuations as the demand for power, and therefore the amount released, changes from night to day but there’s always something to run and surf here. Usually we’ll experience lower water in the mornings and higher water in the afternoons. Seasons: It seems in recent years the rainy seasons have become less predictable but in general rainy season is twice a year, once in April – May and the again in October – December. That said the sun still shines during the rainy season, and the rain still falls during the dry! Rainy season doesn’t really affect the river, but it can make it slightly more challenging to get to it, with the road becoming quite muddy. One thing is for sure here; it’s always warm!

On the section of the Nile that we kayak (from Jinja to Busana), there are no hippos and 99% of the crocodiles have been wiped out. These animals were plentiful in this region prior to Idi Amin’s rule in the 1970s, however they have since all been poached out of the area. After over 20 years of rafting and kayaking and hundreds of thousands of customers enjoying the Nile there has never been a crocodile related incident. If you want to see these animals on the Nile, you need to take a 8hr drive to Murchison Falls National Park.

The Nile River Festival this year is from January 23rd to January 25th 2026. Everybody is welcome and the more the merrier. Come enjoy sunshine, kayaking and great competition. See our dedicated webpage for more info

We want as many people as possible to find the kind of kayaking that they are suited to, take a look at the options below to find the option right for you. If you’re still not sure, just drop us an email and Celia will be happy to make a recommendation. Gentle, calm & relaxed Our Source of the Nile tour, Bujagali lake tours and freedom rentals are designed for you. Flat water, sunshine, birdwatching, and perhaps a few drinks – these options are for those who want a relaxing time out on the river; Source of the Nile Tour - Our favourite way to see the source. Bujagali Lake Tour - Chill out, or watch the birds. Freedom Rentals - The Nile at your pace. Whitewater Action The Nile has some of the world’s best whitewater and makes for one of the greatest learning environments for kayaking anywhere in the world. The people who join our tandem day or beginner courses generally have no experience of being in a kayak before; just a craving for adventure, want to learn a new skill and see Uganda in a completely different way. Beginner Grade 5 Tandem Kayaking - For those with only 1 day in Jinja and want to get the real deal. Introduction to Whitewater - Learn all the basics of kayaking and see why we like it so much. No experience necessary Multi Day Courses -Take the Introduction day further – 5 days learning how to kayak on on of the world’s greatest rivers.

All you need to bring for our introduction to whitewater day and other activities is yourself and: Clothes you don’t mind getting wet in (shorts, t-shirt, swim wear) Any medication you may need (e.g. asthma pump, epi pen) Dry clothes for afterwards. The guides all carry a first aid kit on the water where your medication will stay dry and easy to access. The following will make your day more comfortable: Suncream – high factor and plenty of it, the river is notorious for washing off ‘waterproof’ suncream.

For those who have booked a holiday/coaching course with us we will provide you with a kit list if you need to bring anything more than the above.

On the river wearing shorts, t-shirt and swim wear is fine. We will provide all of the safety equipment that you need for your activity. If you burn easily from the sun we highly recommend a long sleeve shirt to keep your arms covered. We tend to not wear shoes, or chose thin neoprene boots, while kayaking but if you want something for when you are walking to and from the river flip flops or sports shoes are perfect.

Yes, for all our white water activities and Source of the Nile tours, booking is essential. To avoid being disappointed, we recommending booking at least 24hrs in advance. For rentals at Bujagali, these can be arranged on site, however we suggest if you have a particular time in mind that you do book ahead to guarantee availability. You can contact us via email, contact us on WhatsApp, or if you are already in Uganda call us on +256 772 880 322 to book.

Most people prefer to wear contact lenses, rather than their glasses, while kayaking. If you only have glasses and it is essential that you wear them then we strongly recommend purchasing a grip cord for them that will keep them on your head. Whatever your choice, please bring spares just in case.

Yes. Nose clips are great for those learning to roll and to avoid getting water up your nose while going down the rapids. Ask at our office in Bujagali when you check in. You can either borrow a nose clip for the day for a deposit or buy it outright if you want to keep it.

No, getting out of one of our kayaks is very easy. On our introduction to whitewater day we will teach you how to use a spray deck (the skirt–like piece of fabric that keeps the water out) and do a few drill to make sure that you are comfortable getting out of your kayak. Some people worry about how hard it is going to be to get out, but are then surprised by how easy it is once they have experienced it. If you have any questions send us a quick message and we would be happy to answer them.

If you are on our Source of the Nile tour or Bujagali lake tour then a camera is a great idea. Your guide will be carrying a small dry box that can fit compact cameras inside. For our whitewater trips a GoPro is fun to bring along and we have several helmets and kayaks with mounts already attached. We do not recommend that you try to bring a phone or camera out on the water as there is little opportunity to use it on these trips. We’ll obviously be doing our best to keep you and your stuff safe but please be aware that we can not take responsibility for your camera should you chose to bring it with you.

Potentially, yes. We are not a kayak retailer, but do occasionally have a selection of our old white water kayaks for sale. These kayaks are best suited to experienced kayakers. Please contact us via email to enquire if any kayaks are available. We do not sell any other equipment such as paddles, helmets or buoyancy aids.

No, there is no expectation of a tip in Uganda. If you would like to tip your guide, we suggest making the amount relative to the personal service you received and thanks you would like to give. A good reference point for tips that we have used for travel around the world is this – How much would it cost for the person you would like to tip to buy a nice meal? Here in Jinja a good meal from a higher end restaurant costs around 35,000 USH ($8.92 / £7.04) Thank you!

We currently do not have any positions available, we will announce when we are next hiring on our Facebook page.

Kayak the Nile is based in Bujagali near Jinja, Uganda. We experience power cuts a couple of times a month but back-up generators generally make up for this shortfall. Laptops, cameras and phones can all be easily be charged here. What plug does Uganda use? Uganda uses the plug and outlet “Type G” the standard UK plug and socket. The power can fluctuate and we recommend using a surge protector where possible, the general values for Uganda’s power supply is as follows: Voltage: 240V Hertz: 50Hz Plug type: G

As of February 2025, Uganda does not offer visas on arrival for most nationals, including tourists. All visitors to Uganda, irrespective of nationality, are required to obtain a visa prior to arrival. This applies to all travelers, including those from countries like South Africa, who may have been previously eligible for visas on arrival. Key Points for Tourists: Online Visa (e-Visa): The most efficient method is applying online through Uganda's official visa website. The e-Visa is usually processed within 2-3 business days. You will receive the visa approval in an electronic format, which should be presented upon arrival. Visa at Uganda Missions (Embassy/Consulate): Alternatively, you can apply through Ugandan embassies or consulates in your country before departure. The processing time can vary, so it's recommended to apply at least 5 business days before your travel date. Visa Fees: Single-entry tourist visa: USD 50 Multiple-entry visa: USD 100 East African Tourist Visa: USD 100, which allows travel to Uganda, Kenya, and Rwanda. Required Documents: Passport with at least 6 months of validity from the date of entry. Passport-sized photos (usually two). Proof of accommodation in Uganda. Proof of onward or return travel (flight tickets). Yellow fever vaccination certificate (required). Special Note: If you're traveling from an East African Community (EAC) country (Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, etc.), no visa is required. Ensure you apply for your visa well in advance to avoid any travel disruptions.

Uganda is one of the most friendly and peaceful countries in Africa. In the past there have been troubles in the far north of the country and to a lesser extent in the far west during more recent times, but ultimately Uganda is very stable as a nation. Petty and opportunistic crime does occasionally happen, however serious crime is extremely rare. With good travel sense, and keeping your belongings in a sensible place, the risk of being the victim of crime is extremely low.

Getting online in Uganda (in Jinja, where Kayak the Nile is based) is simple and there are a few options available. Buy a SIM Card for mobile access At your hotel/guest house At a dedicated internet shop At a café 1. Buy a SIM card: For internet access on your unlocked phone (not fixed to one network, ask your home network provider about unlocking) you can buy either a SIM, MicroSIM and NanoSIM here. You will need to have your passport (or another form of ID) with you when buying and registering your SIM card but it is a otherwise easy process. Data packages can then be bought and 4G and Edge coverage in the Jinja district is good. 2. At your hotel/guest house: Most hotels and guest houses have an internet connection of some description, most however get easily overloaded with people trying to connect as nearly all systems run off a shared mobile connection rather than a landline connection. 3. Go to an Internet shop: Jinja has several internet shops with computer booths available for those without a device. On the whole these provide a more reliable internet connection. Voice skype calls often work in these shops but you get the tasty Ugandan coffee Reliable internet shop – next to Biashara supermarket (view on map) 4. Go to a Internet café: If you have your own laptop or device then a cafe means both a nice coffee and a internet connection. The speeds in the cafes can be frustratingly slow, at busy times everyone comes in and connects. We recommend the following cafes: Innovation Village (paid WiFi) The Deli (free WiFi)

Yes; as of 2016, travellers are required to show their yellow fever certificates on arrival at Entebbe. The World Health Organization announced that as of 11 July 2016, existing and new Yellow Fever vaccination certificates are valid for life. Countries can no longer require travellers to show proof of re-vaccination or a booster dose as a condition of entry. Travellers should note that this new regulation may not be honoured by all border authorities during the transition phase.

There are around 50 local languages in Uganda. English is the official language and is widely understood at a basic level. Most of the central and southern regions of Uganda speak a variant derived from Bantu, such as Luganda and Soga.

We do not recommend drinking the tap water. For your time with us kayaking, bottled water will be available. For general travel, around Uganda many villages have groundwater pumps that can be used to get drinking water and bottled water is readily available at small stores and super markets.

Malaria is prevalent across Sub-Saharan Africa. For visiting Uganda, we recommend you take all the necessary precautions, such as taking anti-malarial medication, wearing trousers and long sleeves in the evening and sleeping under a mosquito net at night. Please consult a travel doctor before your trip as some drugs need to be started before you arrive in order to be effective. They will recommend which medication is right for you. The most common malaria prophylaxis medications for Uganda are: Doxycycline Malarone (atovaquone/proguanil combination)

COVID-19 is in Uganda. However, the Ugandan Government have put restrictions in place from very early on and this has meant the virus has not been widespread to date.

The following vaccines are advised for travel to Uganda. Please consult your travel doctor before visiting Uganda making sure you seek professional medical advice. Recommended: Diphtheria Hepatitis A Tetanus Typhoid Yellow Fever Other vaccines to consider: Cholera Hepatitis B Meningococcal Meningitis Rabies Source: NHS Travel | Destinations – Africa, Uganda Accessed 8th September 2014

The Nile has been known to carry bilharzia/schistosomiasis, and cases from the river have been recorded. Bilharzia is most prevalent in still and stagnant water. We spend most of our time in the fast moving rapids or on sections of river that see a large amount of daily fluctuation and are therefore largely free of the parasite. To minimise the risks, we recommend not spending time wading on the river banks and not swimming in the stagnant waters of Lake Victoria. Treatment is easily available over the counter here (in Jinja), and is a single course of tablets, though you must wait three months (the incubation period) before treating. If you are concerned about Bilharzia, we advise that you do a check-up three months after you trip with your doctor who should be able to test for it. For more information on bilharzia/schistosomiasis please look at the following resource: NHS.uk – schistosomiasis (Bilharzia)

We always recommend following your country’s official advice regarding this issue. The following information is provided as a guide to inform travellers. Uganda remained clear of the 2014 outbreak of the Zaire strain of the Ebola virus in west Africa. No cases of this strain were recorded in Uganda at all during this outbreak. The 2022–2023 Uganda Ebola outbreak was an outbreak of the Sudan ebolavirus, which causes Ebola, from 20 September 2022 until 10 January 2023 in the Western and Central Regions of Uganda. Over 160 people were infected, however the disease was successfully controlled and eradicated. In the far north of the Uganda during 2011 (1 recorded case) and 2012 (31 recorded cases) there were outbreaks of the Sudan strain of the Ebola virus. These were successfully contained and Uganda is currently clear of Ebola and at low immediate risk. Source – WHO Ebola Virus Disease factsheet no.103

There are a number ATM machines in Jinja, we find the most reliable to be at the following locations: Absa Bank Stanbic Bank I&M Bank DTB Bank Stanbic ATM at Njeru (Just outside Nile breweries) Please note that there is a daily limit (depending on your bank) on withdrawals and you will be charged for each withdrawal. There are no ATMs in Bujagali.

We try to make paying as easy as possible at Kayak the Nile. Most people choose to pay in cash to avoid the bank surcharges, however card payments are also available. We Accept: Ugandan Shillings (UGX) Kenyan Shillings (KSH) US Dollars (Unmarked, USD dated 2009 and above) British Sterling (GBP) Euro

If you are visiting Uganda and choose to bring USD, please bring US dollars dated 2009 and above. Most banks and exchange bureaus here do not accept dollars dated before 2009, in order not to be stuck with dollars that you can’t use please make sure that all US dollars you bring are 2009 and above. There is conflicting advice on the internet , some people saying 2001 and above is fine, this is outdated and best advice is to use 2009 and above. Please note – across the country you will get a poorer exchange rate for notes below denominations of 50USD. Businesses, banks and forex bureaux's will often reject marked, torn or tired USD. If travelling from the UK or Europe please consider bringing your Pounds and Euros as they are widely accepted.

Ugandan shillings are a controlled currency and only available in East Africa. You will not be able to get Ugandan shillings from outside this zone, a better choice is to bring: US dollars (notes $50 or larger dated 2009 and above) British pound sterling (GBP) EUROs (€) These currencies are widely exchanged and accepted. Alternatively, there are plenty of ATMs, at arrival in Entebbe and in all major towns. Please note that for US dollars ‘small bills’, $1, $5, $10 & $20, get a much poorer exchange rate than their larger counterparts. Typically a few hundred shillings less per dollar.

We highly recommend getting to Kayak the Nile via private hire it make better use of your time, are more convenient and much safer (we have many trusted drivers to recommend). If you want to come via public transport please follow these instructions: Get to the Amber Court roundabout, Jinja – this roundabout is on the main Kampala – Kenya road and your driver should know it. It is the main roundabout for Jinja. From Amber Court roundabout you need to go to Nile River Explorers campsite, Bujagali. This is best done on a boda (motorcycle taxi) and all the drivers should know where it is. Expect to pay 7000 or 10000 USH for a boda from the roundabout to the campsite. In Bujagali, you are looking for a large red gate, go through this gate, Kayak the Nile is immediately on you right. View our location page and read further directions

For those flying in we can arrange for one of our trusted drivers to collect you and your luggage from Entebbe (EBB) International airport. This is cheaper than a taxi driver from the airport and the drivers we send are known to us, know where to bring you and have roof racks for your kayak if needed. Discover the Nile (for experienced kayakers) and our holiday packages all include airport pickups. Current rates are as follows: Entebbe – Jinja / Bujagali – $70-$90 Prices are for a small car (5 passenger seats, though with luggage we recommend max 4 people), and include a small booking fee. Larger vehicles available on request. Book a airport pickup with one of our drivers. Other options Public Transport

We recommend a minimum of a two week trip to Uganda, though people often get to the end of this amazed that it is over already. Two weeks is enough to see everything on the river once and perhaps squeeze in a trip to Murchison or Sipi Falls. Regular amounts of time that white water paddlers come out here for are two weeks, one month and two month trips, sometime even longer! WARNING: Jinja has been referred to as the black hole/the place where all roads eventually lead back to. If you don’t plan to leave, it is unlikely you will. We run courses to help paddlers make the most of their trip. We run the Discover the Nile course for good reason, it helps keep people safe on the river and means you make the most out of your time on the Nile. This is a great way to start your Nile adventure… Learn more about Discover the Nile…

Getting to and from the river is relatively easy but does require a bit of organisation. There are two main hubs that kayakers use, the Nile River Explorers campsite in Bujagali and Superhole Campsite, Bubugo: From NRE/Bujagali it is easiest to access: The Silverback to Kibibi section (a great grade 1-3 warm up) River run of the ‘Day Two’ or rafting section Park and Play at Super Hole (it is also possible to reach Vengeance Wave as well) Party Superhole Campsite is better for: Superhole, Itanda, Kalagala, Vengeance Peace and quiet Back to basics camping To understand where all the put ins and take outs are please come to our office in Bujagali when you arrive. We have a map on the wall and we are happy to explain the logistics from there.

Brussels Airlines, Turkish Airways, Emirates and Qatar Airways all fly regularly to Entebbe. Disclaimer: Kayak the Nile receives no commissions from your flight. We negotiated this arrangement in order for it to be easier for you to come and paddle in Uganda. This option is open to everyone regardless of whether you are coming on a course with us. To get a quote from our Brussels contact (often cheaper than price comparison sites) and ensure your kayak is booked onto your ticket please contact us with the proposed dates that you would like to fly. Contact Kayak the Nile about flying with Brussels airlines.

Yes. We have a wide range of kayaks, paddles, and soft equipment available to rent. Our boats range from creekers and river runners through to the current playboat designs. We only rent kayaks to those that we have taught previously or we have seen on the river. This is for your safety and insuring that we will get our kit back. Please contact us for the list of which boats we have available and book the equipment for your time here.

It depends! Annually we like to update our fleet with a selection of new playboats. Let us know what you have and we’ll let you know if we’re interested.
