Near the banks of Lake Victoria, Kampala, the capital of Uganda, is a lively city with a long history. Before the British, the city was the capital of the Buganda Kingdom, and remains so to this day. The city sits on several hills, each housing an important government or religious building. Kasubi Hill is the home of the Kasubi Tombs, a sacred burial ground of Buganda Kings. The Uganda Museum sits atop Kololo Hill, and features a hands-on collection of traditional musical instruments.

Never the less Uganda being in the land locked country,Kampala is locked the more although it has an outlet of lake Victoria and all roads from all regions of Uganda stopping in the city centre and starting from the city centre.The city harbors number of different cultures and tribes even from out side Uganda because of the hospitality of this country's government.Back to attractions on this short quick city tour we will walk,run,sit,sit,eat,all the way after time to make sure all our stuff is done enough and exhausted in 9nine hours.So depending on where we pick you from remember no car is hire this time the hired service is your guide(james)..we decide on where to stat from depending on where you are at the moment but time must be appreciated and put into consideration.very early maybe at 8:00AM WE SHOULD START from all markets of Nakasero and owino as our firs destination ..come with bugs to carry cheap fruits, and clothes on this day,Then we fall for other sites in the city
