A group of five friends travelled from The Netherlands to Karamoja and experienced it as truly Uganda off the beaten track…
Anke (The Netherlands): Although the lonely planet only mentions it in a small “off the beaten track” paragraph this region is definitely worth a visit! Beautiful area with beautiful people. We stayed at the camping site of Kara-Tunga guesthouse. It’s a really relaxed environment with friendly staff and good food. They also offer great tours.I can highly recommend staying a night with the shepherds in the Kraal. Overall, great experience!
Kyra (The Netherlands): Thanks to Theo (and the guides) we made a wonderful trip to Karamoja! The highlight for me was sleeping under millions of stars in the kraal. The guesthouse provides all the comfort you need with very tasty food. If you want to get to know the real Karamoja, definitely go with Kara-Tunga!
It was a pleasure hosting the writer Jacob Wananda of The Elgon Trail Tourism Promotion Book in Moroto and gave him a taste of our culture and breathtaking landscapes on the motorbike!
We’re looking back at a 18 Days Roadtrip through Uganda with our friends ‘Marcel (Lomuria) & Vera (Natuk)’ from The Netherlands. We had the pleasure to host their first time in Africa with special attention to Karamoja.
Watch another great video from our guests of Szívemben Született Afrika who travelled with us for one week in the Karamoja region. The first days were spent in Moroto at Kara-Tunga Safari Camp to experience the diverse cultures and landscapes of the region.
Maria Schiffer, 11th December 2022 – I’m back in Uganda because of Theo, whom I met while working on my book Eating With Africa In 2018. I’ve been traveling along the Warrior Nomad Trail the last week, researching and experiencing Community Tourism.
