Things to do in Kasese

A guide to the best things to do in Kasese, Uganda, before setting off on your next adventure. The Rwenzori Arts Centre, some seven miles north of the town, is worth a visit as it features sculptures cast in bronze by the Rwenzori Founders or carved in Moroto soapstone and marble. The Rwenzururu Palace is worth a brief nod, whilst the Katwe Village Tour has mixed reviews, with some describing it as a "terrible rip-off", although others have enjoyed exploring the lives and homestays of local salt workers. Perhaps the most popular of the things to do in Kasese is to take one of the boat trips (left) on the Kazinga Channel, a wide, 20-mile-long channel that connects Lake George and Lake Edward.
