If you want to have the best time around Kampala, then Fatumah is your go-to guide. She got to our meeting point on time, which is such a PLUS! I enjoyed every aspect of the walk, the conversations. She is kind, humble, patient and deeply passionate about what she does.

Fantastic walking tour with Fatumah. This was the perfect way to explore Kampala. A comprehensive tour including historical sites, markets and spectacular views from the National Mosque tower. Fatuma is an excellent guide with lots of knowledge and insights into Kampala - and also national parks and locations outside Kampala. Strongly recommended.
