About Ndere Cultural Centre & Kampala City Tour

The Ndere Cultural Centre is Kampala's premier venue for experiencing Uganda's incredible cultural diversity. Founded by Stephen Rwangyezi, the centre showcases vibrant traditional music and dance performances from all 56 of Uganda's tribes-from the energetic Acholi Larakaraka to the graceful Kiganda dances. The performances run on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday evenings and are accompanied by a buffet dinner of traditional Ugandan dishes. Combined with a Kampala city tour, visitors explore the Craft Village on Buganda Road, the National Theatre, Kampala's seven hills, the bustling taxi parks, and the colorful street food scene that makes Kampala one of Africa's most dynamic capitals.
