Kampala Matatu Ride

About This Experience

Travel the way Kampala does: in a shared matatu. Hop in with a local guide, squeeze into a packed taxi with locals, and see how the conductor calls out stops and takes fares. Then walk through the busy taxi park, where hundreds of colourful vans load and leave all day. Learn the hand signals, the fares and the unwritten rules. Lively, loud and the most real way to see the city. Includes: local guide, matatu fares and a drink at the end. Good to know: it's crowded and warm. Keep bags in front of you and wear light, comfortable clothes.
