Jinja, Start Of The Nile River Overview
Jinja might be a tiny town, but that doesn’t take away from the spectacular experiences that it offers. Jinja is the source of the Nile, the world’s longest river. It’s an amazing experience taking a boat trip here to see the Nile marker.

That’s not all, Jinja is where you can have an incredible adrenaline rush of rafting in the Nile in rapids up to Grade 5, some as long as 19 kilometres. You can also enjoy kayaking, riverboarding, and see the rare African fish eagles, Open-billed storks, Crested cranes, etc.

Location: Eastern Uganda on the northern shores of Lake Victoria.

Timing: Rafting is best enjoyed during drier months of January-February and June-September.
