as classic bungee jumping in the White Nile and at the
Source of the Africa's longest river - River Nile! The
legendary White Nile offers some of the best White Water
rafting in the world. AfriChoice! arrange either day,
overnight or multiday excursions. With the trip beginning
in Jinja, Uganda's adventure capital here you find the
only bungee jumping platform in East Africa with a drop
touching the Source of the Nile!
Uganda's white-water rafting industry is comparatively
new - the first drop of the river by a paddler was in
1996, and the grade 4 and 5 extend of rapids on the Nile
have since been developed into a world-class rafting destination
possessing some of the most prevailing and constant rapids
on earth. The powerful volume of water creates horrible
rapids that provide an unforgettable rafting experience
equivalent to that of the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe. Home
of the white-water rafting industry is the city of Jinja,
located at the source of the River Nile, the longest river
in the world. Bujagali Falls downstream of the Nile's
basis, and close to Jinja, has been vaunted the 'adrenaline
capital' of Uganda, offering not only white water rafting,
but also bungee jumping, kayaking, mountain biking and
river boarding.
The White Nile has up to
seven times the volume of the Zambezi. The raft explodes
through huge walls of white water and drifts through warm
pools in the equatorial sunshine. To raft The Nile, do
not need any previous rafting experience. The guide instructs
the clients on all aspects of safety and prepare them
for an unforgettable experience. Rafting the Nile has
100% safety records. Clients can enjoy the rafting knowing
that they are in the safest hands.
