Equator Point in Uganda is definitely worth a visit. Try getting there on a boda boda for the additional thrill of enjoying the countryside and multiple stops.
Uganda
Uganda is called the Pearl of Africa. True, it has come from a dark place but that said, it is making headway in the field of tourism. Uganda, although landlocked, has something no other country has – Lake Victoria which is also the source of River White Nile in Jinja. You can take a short boat ride to the centre of the lake to see the source. Uganda abounds in wildlife, snow-capped mountains, coffee and tea plantations and the famous Nile Perch and giant sized tilapia. Murchisons Falls National Park and Bwindi National Park are unmatched in the experiences offered. While you are here, pay a visit to the Rhino conservation centre and get up close with these endangered animals. Food here is always fresh and extremely healthy and locally sourced. Ugandan coffee is fast gaining a reputation worldwide too. The capital city Kampala is filled with amazing cafes and restaurants.
