1. Sezibwa falls tour: 1-day tour to jinja city, jinja one day tour, jinja city guided day tour, jinja one day tour

The name Sezibwa is derived from a Luganda phrase “sizibwa Kkubo” which translates into “my path can never be blocked”, the locals say is because its flow could not be stopped even with different obstacles it encountered along its path like Rocks, etc. The river flows down in a set of rocks creating beautiful magical waterfalls, especially during the rainy seasons. In the dry season, the water is less hence the waterfalls are not as magnificent. This stopover will give you a glimpse into the traditional beliefs of the Buganda kingdom and spectacular photo moments from the scenery and landscape of rocks. This Buganda cultural site has a lot to offer besides the magical falls; it’s rich with a lot of bird species and if you are love bird watching please carry a pair of binoculars to having a wonderful moment for bird watching safaris on Uganda birding safaris; the folktales from stories of back then and the traditional healers will teach you more about the Uganda culture and you can learn more about the different Uganda cultures while on our Uganda cultural tours next time.
