Our Kampala food tour offers guests a culinary experience carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of Kampala tastemakers. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, and the limitations of street food vendors and local eateries mean we cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, or halal diets as the tastings would be very limited. ✔ Gluten and lactose intolerance, mild peanut allergies, and no seafood diets are possible though some tastings do not have alternatives available and the menu would be more limited.
 ✔ Suitable for no pork diets

Explore Kampala’s food culture on a 4-hour lunch tour through Bugolobi, with 12+ tastings from markets, street grills, and local eateries. 

This isn’t about fine dining, it’s a moveable feast focused on the dishes beloved by locals. 
 Start with simple staples like mandazi and sweet cookies paired with spiced chai, before heading into Bugolobi Market for street favourites such as the Rolex and sambuzas. 

Along the way, you’ll explore matoke, a key part of Ugandan cooking, prepared in different ways with greens, beans, and groundnut sauce. The tour continues at a local grill for charcoal-cooked chicken, followed by richer dishes like smoked fish in peanut sauce served with traditional sides. You’ll finish with a sit-down meal including goat dry fry, cassava, greens, and hibiscus juice. 

This is an authentic look at Kampala’s food scene through the eyes of a local tastemaker.

The tour concludes after 3.5-4 hours. You'll leave not only full, but with a much deeper understanding of Kampala’s food culture and the confidence to continue eating your way through Uganda.
