Whether you’re from the UK, USA, Europe, Australia, or anywhere else in the world, Uganda offers one of the most breathtaking and adrenaline-filled bungee experiences on the planet. Jump from towering platforms, soar over the Nile River, and feel the rush of free-fall in a safe and controlled environment.
Why Bungee Jumping in Uganda?
Uganda is home to some of the world’s most stunning scenery, from lush jungles to the mighty Nile River. Bungee jumping here isn’t just about the thrill—it’s about experiencing Uganda’s natural beauty from a unique perspective. With certified guides and strict safety regulations, this adventure is perfect for both first-timers and adrenaline seekers alike.
Top bungee spots:
-
Nile High Bungee, Jinja: Jump from a 44-meter-high platform above the Nile, with panoramic views of the river and surrounding greenery.
-
Night and Day Jumps: Choose a daylight jump for spectacular views or a night jump for a unique thrill.
How Does Bungee Jumping Work?
Participants are secured in one of two ways:
-
Ankle Tie: Facing downwards for the classic bungee experience.
-
Full-Body Tie: Float like a butterfly for a smoother, more relaxed descent.
Before the jump, instructors count down “1-2-3… Bungee!” as you take the leap. After a thrilling free-fall, the bungee cord rebounds gently, allowing you to touch the Nile safely. Guides at the bottom will ensure your safe return to the platform.
