Entebbe Walking Tour with Agnes was so much fun and I learned a lot from her
On my first day to Uganda in Entebbe I went on the guided walking tour with Agnes - she is such a cheerfull and kind person. We went to Lake Victoria in the early morning, seeing Marabus on the shore and talking to the ladies at the fish market, we went to the freedom tree, a crafts village, had a rolex on the way, and went to Kitoro market. Having Agnes as I guide I learned a lot, she explained so much and having a local guide helps to engage in small talk with people. It was so much fun. Sadly, I had an accident and Agnes helped me so much, taking me to a local clinic and taking good care of me. We had to postpone the visit to the Botanical Gardens because of my accident, but it was easy to arrange for another day to do this, and I was happy, Agnes was my guide again. If you go to Entebbe, don't miss this walking tour, you will see and learn a lot and have fun.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for allowing our team manage and run you tour. We hope to see you soon again as you embark on the uganda safari.

1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $55 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kampala usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kampala is not rushed.
Is 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kampala, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kampala can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kampala and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 1 Day Best of Entebbe City Guided Walking Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kampala within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kampala?
+
On Outty we rank every Kampala experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampala’s Best Experience walking tour, Kampala Walking City Tours (Women-Guided), Kampala Heart of Walking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kampala?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kampala?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
