NEW Lake Victoria Ferry in 2026!

On 23rd January 2026, the locally constructed MV Mwanza ferry was officially commissioned on Lake Victoria.

This state-of-the-art vessel will carry passengers and cargo across the lake, connecting Lake Victoria ports in Bukoba with other Tanzanian ports, the Kenyan port of Kisumu, and the Ugandan ports of Port Bell and Jinja.

Kiroyera Tours Managing Director Mary Kalikawe was invited to the launch and was very impressed by the level of comfort and safety the ferry will provide for her customers and all visitors to Tanzania.
