Nile River Explorers (N.R.E) came to Uganda in 1995 and were the first to scout the Nile River and obtain a license for commercial river rafting. Inviting experienced river guides from around the world to lead their trips and supported by world-class safety kayakers, NRE has become the most popular rafting company in Uganda.
Our reputation for safety combined with high adrenaline excitement has spread through personal recommendations, with over 90% of our clients hearing of us through word of mouth. NRE run an oar boat on every trip as a safety boat. This boat is available should you want a slightly easier ride, it also carries all the food and safety gear.
NRE has built up the reputation of the best value for money 'white water rafting' in Africa.
The day features five 'grade 5' rapids as well as numerous slightly lesser graded rapids.
All trips are filmed and a fully edited DVD is available to purchase at the end of the day.
The Ugandan guides at NRE are the only Ugandan guides operating on the Nile to be fully trained. They all hold the internationally accepted Swift Water Training and Rescue as well as Wilderness Trauma Response and First Aid certificates.
While in the Jinja area we offer you two budget accommodation options, Explorers Backpackers situated in Jinja and Explorers River Camp, situated 8kms downstream from the source above Bujagali falls. This is undoubtedly the campsite in Africa with the most awesome setting.
