If going on safari isn't quite exciting enough, there
are several beautiful spots in Uganda where you can
throw yourself off a bridge with a rubber band attached
to your ankles. Bungee jumping is an adrenalin sport
that was made commercially viable in New Zealand during
the mid 1980's and quickly spread around the world,
including Africa. The Nile High Bungee has to be one
of the most visually impressive bungee jumps in the
World! Kites and fish eagles circle the tower as thrill
seekers prepare to jump 44 metres directly down to the
source of the Nile
Rafting is one of the most attractive tourist activities
in Uganda. With an oar raft (suntan raft) the ride along
the Victoria Nile thrilling waves is an experience that
leaves most tourists wondering. The source of the Nile
River is such wonderful and breathtaking scenery that
Uganda is proud of. At this point, as the river is flowing
out of Lake Victoria it uproars between heavily forested
islands thus forming a spectacular point with raging
waters that make rafters appreciate the game. Rafters
plunge into these raging torrents and wade through the
warm green pools as the sunshine crate a warming effect. |
