Two wheels, one city

Kampala by motorcycle.

The boda-boda is Uganda's everyday ride — quick, everywhere, and honestly the best seat in the city for actually seeing it. You ride pillion behind a licensed, experienced rider at a sightseeing pace, not a commuter's rush.

What's provided

A licensed, experienced rider for every guest, a proper helmet, and a lead guide bike keeping the group together. All rides start from Antonio's Restaurant, Kampala Road.

Safety on the road

How we manage Kampala traffic

RIDERS

Licensed & experienced, every time

Every rider is licensed, insured, and used to carrying guests, not just weaving through traffic solo — the pace is set for sightseeing, not speed.

GEAR

Helmets, no exceptions

A properly fitted helmet is mandatory for every guest, every ride, with no exceptions made for a "quick" stretch of road.

GROUP

A lead bike keeps you together

A guide rides at the front of the group and stays in radio contact with every rider, so no one gets separated in city traffic.

Good to know

Before you ride

Do I need riding experience?

No — you ride as a passenger behind a licensed rider. You don't need to have ridden a motorcycle yourself at all.

What should I wear?

Closed shoes, trousers rather than shorts if possible, and a light jacket. We provide the helmet.

What's the minimum age?

12 years for the Easy route, riding with a guardian on a separate bike alongside; 16+ for the Moderate and Active routes.

Can I combine this with Bwaise or a homestay?

Yes — the Industrial Area & Wetland ride passes close to Bwaise, and several guests end that ride with an overnight homestay nearby.
