White Nile Explorer - Ride and Raft
Uganda
Uganda
Welcome to Uganda's latest adventure activity, the Nile Explore on horseback - the ONLY riding tour in Uganda. Together with our partners we offer fabulous riding along the source of the world's longest river, the White Nile. We are the first people to introduce horses to this area of East Africa and the response from the local populace has been tremendous. The horses are all beautiful Thoroughbreds, imported from Kenya and beautifully trained, bombproof, fit and strong.
We pass through local villages, areas of crops and jungle where you will see spectacular bird life, hopefully some monkeys, and if you are really lucky some of the more elusive animals, like mongoose and water monikers. There is also the opportunity to take your horse swimming in the Nile at a beautiful sandy bottomed bay if you are so inclined. You and the horse stay overnight at the Haven, your luggage will be waiting for you when you arrive. Take an afternoon fishing trip, a sunset cruise or just relax with a book while overlooking one of the biggest rapids on the Nile. Fantastic meals await you in the evening. Of course we included a day of rafting on the Nile - if you are not into rafting, you can choose from several other activities that day.

Riding Experience
All clients must be able to do rising trot for long distances, as well as canter. We can help with less experienced clients by splitting the groups (when possible), and have many trails and guides for that purpose but you must be a minimum of strong intermediate riders. The route and length of this ride is physically demanding. You need to be able to canter for extended periods and be competent riding in English saddles. We do ride for at least 4 hours a day (sometimes up to 6) so riding fitness is essential. Many people bring seat savers (bumnahs) and are happy they did!
Terrain & Environment
We ride a huge variety of trails, some winding tracks over steeper ground, hacking up hills to see the magnificent views. Then through dense jungle and over grassy tracks. Every day is different from the day before, the constant change of scenery is a photographers dream. Many people think a ride in Africa will have large wild animals, but in this area, we have an incredible variety of rarer and smaller species of animals, many of which are unique to this area.
Pace
We understand that our clients have different preferences on what they would choose for the pace of the safari. For this reason, we regularly split groups when possible. Riders who wish to take it easy are able to ride at a leisurely pace, while those up for a faster paced ride, can also branch from the group at certain places on the rides to indulge in some fast canters and gallops. We also have a break in our rides at least every 3 hours, for either morning tea or lunch so horses and riders can have a drink and something to eat.
The pace can be fast and it is essential that you can do rising trot and canter for long distances.
Horses
We have 14 beautiful horses, from 17hh down to 13.3hh. All our horses are well-schooled, responsive, very fit and we pride ourselves on having the right horse for everyone. Most of them are also eventers that compete regularly. We own Irish Sports Horses, Thoroughbreds, American Saddlebred crosses and Ethiopian ponies.
We have a Canadian veterinarian, fully trained in horses, to assess the animal. In the case of lameness, a new horse is brought to the scene and the injured animal taken home for treatment.
Guides
This safari is led by Natalie who is assisted by Ugandan riders, grooms and other staff. Natalie is and an expert horsewoman from England. She has years of eventing, pony club, trekking, and stable experience and is a very able lady.
All our guides are trained to replace loose or lost shoes, and all horses are checked by the farrier prior to departure.
Equipment
Riding helmets are mandatory and we suggest people bring their own helmets and chaps, although we can provide them free of charge if necessary.
Weight Limit
Please note that we have a very strict policy of not taking any riders who weigh over 80kg. We do not offer an option to charge extra money for clients over that weight. Our horses are not as big as in some other countries so it is out of the question that we can accommodate riders over the weight limit. However! We do offer a simultaneous trip doing motorbike riding for heavier clients or non-riding clients (contact us for further détails).
Safety and Emergency Procedures
Uganda is one of the safest countries in the world.
We consider the safety of our riders and horses to be the top priority. All riders are briefed before we set off. All staff and guides are first aid trained, both for human and horses. A fully stocked first aid kits follows us on safari and we have 24-hour access to doctors and clinical facilities.
We have a very good mobile telephone network and have access to it at all times on the ride. All guides carry mobile phones, which have fully charged batteries and phone credit. In the event a rider or horse cannot be moved we immediately contact home base, who locate us from pre-determined GPS points enroute. A vehicle is sent to the scene of the accident, with a doctor if deemed necessary.
Non-Riders
We do offer a simultaneous trip doing motorbike riding for non-riding clients. You can always contact us for further details on that.
Your hosts
Natalie arrived in Uganda in 2000 and fell in love with the beauty of the country and the wonderful people. She met TJ in 2004 and they then purchased a piece of land on the banks of the Nile and carved out home and stables from scratch. Along with daughter Kya, now 16, they breed, train, compete and instruct in dressage, show jumping and cross-country disciplines. Natalie also is an Equine Osteopath and as well as riding gets to judge competitions as well.

Seasons
Being about 50km north of the equator and at 1100m above sea level, Jinja enjoys a tropical climate. Most days are between 21°c and 30°c. The hottest months of the year are November to March. However, Uganda is known for its temperate climate.
We have 2 rainy seasons per year:
- the short rains from late October to November
- the long rains from April to May
We still do safaris in the wet season on our wet weather trails. Our horses are acclimatized to damp conditions so safaris are only postponed by us if it is raining heavily at the booked time of the safari. Our supplied raincoats ensure you don’t get cold even if it does rain while on safari.
It still rains in the dry season and can be heavy; it is just not as regular as in the wet seasons.
The below is a recommended list but not comprehensive. In a tropical climate light cotton clothing is the most comfortable and this can be worn throughout, but it can occasionally get cool in the evenings, so a jumper or fleece is worth packing, as well as a lightweight spray jacket. Swimmers and a rash shirt for rafting are a good idea. We do supply large army poncho raincoats that are also stored in the saddlebags. We can provide helmets and half chaps if you don’t want to bring your own. Please note: it is mandatory to wear helmets on our safaris. Please be aware that we transfer all luggage from lodge to lodge via vehicle and the horses have small saddle bags for water, lunch, cameras etc.
- A pair of hiking boots and/or riding boots
- A pair of half chaps **can borrow if necessary
- A pair of jodhpurs/breeches
- A small daypack suitable for riding if you have large cameras etc
- An appropriate riding helmet (mandatory) **can borrow if necessary
- A pair of long trousers
- A long sleeved shirt
- Sandals
- Raincoat
- Mosquito repellent
- Sunscreen
- Sun hat
- Swimming Costume
- Shorts
- T-Shirts
- Fleece
- Sunglasses
- Anti-Malaria medication
- Travel Insurance documentation
- Cameras, rechargers, film etc
- Adaptor Plug (We use UK plugs in Uganda 230v at 50Hz)
- Water bottle
- Earplugs (bush babies can keep you awake)
- Head light
- $US or Traveller's Cheques
- Passport and relevant visas if you need to get them beforehand
- Toiletries and personal items
In general lightweight wash-and-wear clothing - something for any of the varied conditions in Africa:- hot, cold, wet or dry.

Accommodations
This is a progressive ride, so nights will be spent in different locations.
Description
The lodges and areas we have picked for our safaris have a wonderful atmosphere, an ambiance distinctly Uganda: laid back and easy paced, but with all the modern comforts and conveniences of home. All lodges have magnificent surroundings and a swimming pool. All rooms have ensuite bathrooms.
WIFI is available at all locations. Internet runs on the mobile phone network and is usually good, but sometimes can fail temporarily. You can get phone reception reliably on just about all areas of our safari, except in the forest where it can come and go.
Power is erratic throughout Uganda, all the lodges do have solar power or generator backup, but there are very occasional times when you can still temporarily have no power.
Laundry is available all lodges except The Haven.
Accommodation Itinerary - subject to changes based on availability
Night 1 & 2: Holland Park
Night 3 & 4: Haven River Lodge
Night 5, 6 & 7: Wildwaters Lodge
Holland Park
The lodgings are right next to the riding stables. They are clean and well-maintained twin or double cottages, with stunning views over the Nile, with a double bed and two singles in each bungalow. The single rooms are set back in the main building and are cool, clean and private. Each accommodation has its private bathroom and free Wi-Fi is available in public areas. There is also an outdoor swimming pool where guest can relax.
Haven River Lodge
The Haven is a peaceful and relaxed River Lodge, a perfect hideaway, located at big rapid on The River Nile. You enter at the camping area, which is fully fenced and is where the horses happily graze. The restaurant and bar sit in the middle of the compound overlooking the mighty Nile where its width exceeds 500 meters. All rooms are self-contained spacious bungalows with private showers overlooking the river. There is Wi-Fi access available from each bungalow. There is also a small outdoor swimming pool.
Wildwaters Lodge
Nestled in a luxuriant rainforest on its own private island, mid-stream in the mighty Nile, Wildwaters Lodge is breathtaking. Thick riverine forest naturally covers the island and each of the ten timber-floor rooms is nestled amidst the forest with private views over the River Nile and its rapids. The expansive, canvas walled, traditionally thatched rooms each boast private decks with elegant free-standing baths and wash basins carved from the local pink granite. Softly lit with handmade furniture, you can relax in comfort on this island paradise listening to the thunder of the Nile rapids, and the calls of the many species of bird who call the island home. Elevated wooden walkways gracefully link the rooms to the restaurant and bar area and offer an unforgettable walk through the heart of the forest. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas, free of charge.
Room Occupancy
Single supplement is mandatory if we are unable to find another rider to share.
Communication
An international mobile phone will work on roam here. Three of the lodges on the trip have WIFI. Internet runs on the mobile phone network and is usually good, but sometimes can fail temporarily. You can get phone reception reliably on just about all areas of our safari, except in the forest where it can come and go.
Meals
All meals are included from lunch on Day 1 to lunch on the last day. We also have a break in our rides at least every 3 hours, for either morning tea or lunch so horses and riders can have a drink and something to eat.
