Rwenzori is also home to Africa’s fourth and fifth highest peaks. On MT Stanley block, is peak Margherita which is the highest peak standing proud at an impressive height of 5109m above sea level, and is snowcapped throughout the year.

Old taxi park: For those of you who come from countries where you have cabs as taxis used as means of public transport and its only one individual or a pair of friends moving to a particular place that hail it to take them to their destination… well, you need to come to Uganda and a 1 day Kampala city excursion and see our version of taxis! trust me, it will be worth of your time. For starters let me try to shade light on what we Ugandans call taxi. This is a fourteen-seater van which is used by the general public to commute from one place to another. These taxis are managed by two people i.e. a driver and a taxi tout who we normally call the conductor. The principle job of this conductor is to call for people going to a particular destination to board his taxi, he also solicits for the transport fares from the onboard passengers before they get to their destinations. While using Ugandan taxis, there are no fixed fares as the fares are determined by the demand and availability of passengers and travel hours…. You can easily board a taxi for 1000ugx as transport fare from one point to another and after just an hour the same taxi demands 2500ugx to take you still to the same destination. Now that’s where the old taxi park comes in, now imagine a swarm of these vans parked in one place with their conductors shouting all names of places within and outside the city, that’s the old taxi park right there… I tell you it’s an absolute frenzy and chaos when you come here, but don’t feel sorry for us cause that’s the way we like it! This taxi park is located in the valley between Nakasero and Old Kampala hill.
With all this and more expect nothing else but a truly exciting and remarkable Uganda tour adventure as you get the see the best of Uganda.
