A raft of paddlers punching through white water on the Nile at Jinja

Jinja City · Uganda · Women-owned

Jinja is where the Nile leaves Lake Victoria and turns north for the Mediterranean. Majji is a women-owned agency on Iganga Road, ten minutes from the spot — and we build trips that start at the source and go wherever your days allow.

Who you're booking with

Explorers spent most of the nineteenth century arguing about where the Nile began. The answer is a stretch of water you can stand beside in twenty minutes from our office — and almost nobody who comes to Uganda makes time for it.

That is the trip we think Jinja should be selling. Not just the rapids downstream, but the point itself: where the lake narrows, the current picks up, and the longest river in Africa turns north through eleven countries. We are small, women-owned and based on Iganga Road, so there are no shelf packages — you tell us the days you have and who is coming, and you get a plan built around them. From an hour at the source to a two-week run taking in Sipi, the parks and the gorillas. We meet you at the airport, and we answer at any hour, because rivers and flights do not keep office time.

  • At the source

    Ten minutes from the point where the Nile leaves Lake Victoria and starts north.

  • Women-owned

    Majji identifies as a women-owned business on its Google listing.

  • Open 24 hours

    A 6am put-in or a midnight landing at Entebbe — someone answers either way.

  • Airport pick-ups

    Collection from Entebbe, Kampala or your Jinja hotel, arranged as part of the trip.

  • Quoted per trip

    No fixed packages. Tell us the days you have and who's coming, and you get a price for that.

What we run

It all begins at the same river.

Everything below starts in Jinja, within sight of where the Nile does. The short ones fit an afternoon; strung together they make a proper Uganda circuit. Prices depend on group size and season, so every trip is quoted rather than listed.

How booking works

Three messages, not three forms.

  1. 1

    Send one message

    Your dates, how many of you there are, and what you'd most like to do. WhatsApp is fastest.

  2. 2

    Get a plan and a price

    A route that fits your days, with the costs written out plainly — activities, transport, guides and nights all named separately.

  3. 3

    We pick you up

    From Entebbe, from Kampala or from your hotel in Jinja. The trip starts when we collect you, not when you find us.

First time in Jinja? Give us the source on your first morning, before the adrenaline. It costs almost nothing, it takes two hours, and everything you do on the river afterwards means more once you have stood at the place it starts.
