Descrição do tour
A culinária de Uganda é construída em torno da banana. O matoke, banana verde para cozinhar feita no vapor até ficar amarela e amassada em forma de purê, é o alimento básico nacional, e o país produz mais bananas per capita do que qualquer outro lugar do mundo.
Começamos no Mercado Nakasero, onde seu guia o conduzirá pelas barracas de produtos agrícolas — dezenas de variedades de bananas, amendoim, jaca, maracujá, peixe-prata — e você degustará suco fresco e amendoim torrado.
Depois vem o prato pelo qual Uganda é realmente famosa: o rolex. Um chapati é frito, uma omelete com tomate, cebola e repolho é preparada por cima e tudo é enrolado junto. O nome é uma corruptela de “rolled eggs” (ovos enrolados). Custa menos de um dólar, é preparado em noventa segundos bem na sua frente e é delicioso.
Também provamos luwombo, carne ou molho de amendoim cozido no vapor em folhas de bananeira, um prato cerimonial de Buganda, e matoke com molho de amendoim. O passeio termina na área das barracas de muchomo ao pôr do sol, onde carne de cabra é grelhada no carvão ao ar livre e servida com gonja, banana-da-terra assada, acompanhada de uma Nile Special gelada.
Grupo pequeno, no máximo 8 pessoas, incluindo transporte privativo.

Roteiro detalhado
Stop 1 - Nakasero Market: A dozen banana varieties, groundnuts, jackfruit and silver fish, with your guide on Uganda's agriculture and why matoke matters so much.
Stop 2 - Fresh juice and roasted groundnuts: Passion fruit and mango pressed to order, with groundnuts roasted in a pan of sand.
Stop 3 - Matoke and g-nut sauce: Green bananas steamed in leaves until golden, with groundnut sauce and beans - the everyday Ugandan plate.
Stop 4 - Luwombo: Chicken, beef or groundnut sauce steamed inside a folded banana leaf, a Buganda court dish that is still made for celebrations.
Stop 5 - The rolex: A chapati fried, an omelette with tomato, onion and cabbage cooked on top, and the whole thing rolled. Made in front of you at a student-quarter stand.
Stop 6 - Goat muchomo: Goat grilled over coals on the street at dusk, cut up with a knife on a board, with gonja roasted plantain and chilli.

Política de cancelamento

Outros avisos
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.
