Tubing the Nile was founded in 2016 by Adam Bafirawala, a professional tourist guide with a lifelong connection to the River Nile. Raised on the river’s shores in Jinja, Adam began guiding at just 10 years old, developing a deep respect and unmatched understanding of the Nile’s rhythms, currents, and hidden sandbars.

Today, Tubing the Nile is proudly owner-operated, ensuring every trip benefits from hands-on leadership, expert local knowledge, and a genuine passion for river adventures. As Uganda’s first tubing outfitter, we pioneered safe, guided tubing experiences on the world’s longest river, setting the standard for quality and safety in the region.

Based in Jinja, Uganda—the adventure capital of East Africa—we offer unforgettable tubing trips that allow guests to relax, float, and fully experience the beauty of the River Nile. With decades of combined guiding experience, our team knows every bend and curve of the river, allowing us to create smooth, scenic, and secure journeys for all skill levels.

At Tubing the Nile, our mission is simple: to provide safe, fun, and authentic river experiences while sharing our love for the Nile with the world.
