Explore a new city

Explore a new Uganda city with Msafiri tours

Another top domestic travel idea is to explore a new Uganda city. Such as if you’re from Kampala then you could visit places such as Jinja, Mable, Kasese (and many others). These will, in turn, allow you to get to know more about Uganda and some of the highlights which might have been within easy reach.

Some of the things you could do in a city include checking out the tourist hot spots, practising your photography, heading to a show, and trying a nice restaurant to name a few ideas.

A local Ugandan city can also be nice to stay overnight with your partner – giving you a break from your normal day-to-day at home in Kampala.
