Top Verified Campsites & Hostels in Uganda – Leading Directory-Listing

We are a new backpacker hostel in the heart of Kampala's upmarket Kololo area, within walking distance of the best bits of the city. Hot showers, cold beers, fat cats etc as standard.

The Fat Cat sits on the edge of Kisementi Square, home of some of the city's best diversions including a massive cinema, bars, restaurants and shops. We've even got 2 (yes, two) icecream parlors just down the road. Madness.

Jinja BaseCamp opened in July of 2017 after what started as a conversation amongst friends of “what happens after the Hairy Lemon?”

Jinja BaseCamp decided to take up the gap left by Nile River Explorers Backpackers when their Jinja based backpacker closed in February of 2017. The team at Jinja BaseCamp are very proud of the continued lifestyle philosophy that was found on the Hairy Lemon Island  – that of “living in harmony with your environment”.

Jinja BaseCamp has a stunning thatched boma which houses the restaurant, bar, Nile River Explorers Reception for rafting ‘meet and greet’ as well as a beautiful swimming pool in which guests can cool off under an ancient Jacaranda tree.

Nile River Explorers welcomes you to Jinja. East Africa's Adventure Capital is home to some of the world's finest grade 5 white water rafting and other adventure activities. Whether you are a first-timer, family or high adventure enthusiast, you’ll find your perfect white water adventure here with Nile River Explorers.
