Columbus Travel Magazine: “Theo, with his travel organization Kara-Tunga and the Karamoja Tourism Academy, is fully committed to making the culture and nature of the Ugandan region of Karamoja known to a wider audience and to developing it in a sustainable way as a tourist destination.”
Theo Vos: “Not I but WE. This award is a recognition for the work of our Kara-Tunga family of employees, guides, host communities, local government and development partners. Together we are doing the unthinkable, and using tourism as a tool for sustainable development in East Africa’s least travelled areas.”
The criteria used for selection were the following ‘break-even travel’ principles for sustainable travel and a simple question: how does the nominee make the world a little better for travelers and the local population?
At Kara-Tunga, we’re passionate about sharing the beauty and culture of Karamoja with you through our travel experiences and places to stay. Now, we’re excited to unveil a new way to experience Karamoja – with our Impact Tours!
