The Tour of Karamoja 2022 TOK22 combined some of the most diverse and remote wilderness in East Africa if not all of Africa. The event entailed some of the most dramatic landscapes, amazing wildlife and some of the richest, most authentic cultural experiences all wrapped up in the most challenging, inspiring and rewarding cycling experience of my life.
I rode just the 350 km Southern Circuit of the TOK22, an epic 5 day cycling adventure that included the wide-open skies of Pian Upe Wildlife Reserve in Uganda; the cross-border ride to Lake Turkwel in Kenya; the epic ascent and dramatic descent of the East African Rift Valley and the ride across the desert landscape of Turkanaland (where only the elephant foot tree, camels and acacia’s seemed to blossom); before returning to the greenery of Moroto in Uganda.
I was truly inspired and met some amazing individuals with whom I shall develop lifelong friendships.
27th September 2022, at World Tourism Day Celebrations, Kara-Tunga Tours was recognized by the Government of Uganda Ministry of Tourism, Trade and Industry, Uganda for Its “Passion and Promotion of Community Tourism in Uganda”.
We’re glad to have met the globetrotters Rinus and Helga that are driving around the world since 2014! Yes it’s incredible, and they are incredible as well.
Since our beginnings, we have been blessed to collaborate with photographer, story teller and guide Marcus Westberg. His passion for the remote and unknown made us engage in a long-term commitment to cover Uganda’s best kept secret: Karamoja.
Trekking Uganda’s Mount Kadam with Kenya-based Dutch primatologist Yvonne A. de Jong and American conservationist and ecologist Thomas M. Butynski have had an interest for what lies within the forgotten corners of Uganda’s Karamoja sub-region and bordering Kenya’s Turkana and West-Pokot counties.
