Descripción del tour
La gastronomía de Uganda se basa en el plátano. El matoke, plátano verde para cocinar que se cuece al vapor hasta volverse amarillo y se machaca hasta formar un puré, es el alimento básico nacional, y este país cultiva más plátanos per cápita que cualquier otro lugar del mundo.
Comenzamos en el Mercado de Nakasero, donde su guía lo llevará por los puestos de productos agrícolas: decenas de variedades de plátanos, cacahuetes, jaca, maracuyá, pececillos plateados, y probará zumo fresco junto con cacahuetes tostados.
Luego llega el plato por el que Uganda es verdaderamente famosa: el rolex. Se fríe un chapati, se cocina encima una tortilla de huevo con tomate, cebolla y col, y luego se enrolla todo. El nombre es una deformación de «rolled eggs» (huevos enrollados). Cuesta menos de un dólar, se prepara en noventa segundos justo delante de usted y es delicioso.
También degustaremos luwombo, carne o salsa de cacahuete cocida al vapor en hojas de plátano, un plato ceremonial de Buganda, y matoke con salsa de cacahuete. El recorrido concluye en la hilera de puestos de muchomo al atardecer, donde la carne de cabra se asa al carbón en la calle y se acompaña con gonja, plátano macho asado, junto con una cerveza Nile Special bien fría.
Grupos reducidos, máximo 8 personas, incluye transporte privado.

Otras notas
Runs daily at 15:00, finishing around 19:00 so that the muchomo strip is at its best.
Transport: we use private cars, never boda-boda motorcycle taxis, for guests. Boda muggings are a documented problem in Kampala and we will not put visitors on them.
Safety: Kampala is generally welcoming, but travel advisories note a real terrorism risk including at restaurants and bars, and protests can start without warning following the 2026 elections. We monitor daily, keep the group small, and will cancel and refund rather than run on a disrupted day. Check your own government's travel advice before booking.
Drinks: your guide orders and watches all drinks. Drink spiking is a flagged risk in Ugandan nightlife.
Uganda has laws that criminalise same-sex relationships and they carry severe penalties. We think LGBT travellers deserve to know that before booking rather than after arriving, and we will answer any question you have honestly.
Water and hygiene: bottled water only. Matoke, beans and grilled meat are cooked hot; we avoid raw salads and iced street juice.
Payment: mobile money is universal and your guide uses it.
Dietary needs: tell us at least 48 hours ahead. Vegetarian works well via matoke, g-nut sauce, beans, chapati and the rolex.
About 1 km of walking in total plus transport between stops.
