The source of the Nile is simply the actual point where the Nile River separates from Lake Victoria. Here, we physically see water coming from underneath through springs, making 30% of the White Nile River and 70% flows from Lake Victoria.
To visit the source of the Nile, you need to take a boat ride.
River Nile is the longest river in the world, with 6,650km and the second largest after the Amazon River in South America.
Water from the source of the Nile (Lake Victoria in Jinja) takes three months (90 days) to flow to the mouth (Alexandria in Egypt), where the Nile pours in Mediterranean Sea
