Q: Is there a lot of walking involved?
A: Yes, there is a fair amount of walking during the site visits as the royal compounds are large, including a walk to the Kabaka’s Lake. Comfortable walking shoes are highly recommended.

Q: What are the specific clothing rules for the Kasubi Tombs?
A: Modesty is key. Shoulders and knees must be covered. Women must wear a skirt (provided on-site if needed). Everyone will be asked to remove their shoes before entering the main tomb structure. Similar respect is expected at the Mengo Palace.

Q: Can we take photos of the Kabaka Anjagala drums?
A: Photography policies for the drums can be strict and may change. Your guide will inform you on the day if photography is permitted. It is often considered a sacred collection, so restrictions are likely.

Q: Is the tour suitable for children?
A: Yes, it can be educational for older children. However, the content is historical and may not engage very young children, and the requirement for quiet respect at the tombs and around the drums can be challenging for them.

Q: What happens if it rains?
A: The tour operates rain or shine. We recommend bringing a rain jacket or umbrella, especially during the wet seasons. Some parts of the tour are under cover.

Q: Can this tour accommodate cruise ship passengers from Port Bell?
A: Absolutely. We can arrange pick-up and drop-off at Port Bell, adjusting the timings accordingly to fit with your ship’s schedule.
