Kara-Tunga opens Karamoja’s first Tourist Information Centre along the main street in Moroto town on 1st April 2018.
For 18 months Kara-Tunga has been working hard to draw tourists to the Karamoja region in northeast Uganda. One of the most important lessons we learned is that the lack of information has kept many travellers from taking the eastern route to Kidepo Valley National Park or traveling southwards to Sipi Falls, Mount Elgon, Jinja and Kampala.
Community opportunity
Karamoja Tourist Information Centre offers local entrepreneurs and community members an opportunity to display and market their products and services like tour guides, accommodations, car rentals and local artists.
Tour guides
Local tour guides play an important role in connecting travellers with their natural habitat and rich cultural heritage. The Karamoja Tourist Information Centre offers the ability to book an experienced and reliable local guide for a pre-designed guided tour or a fully customised private expedition.
Arts & Crafts
The Karamoja Tourist Information Centre supports local artists by offering training to improve product quality and providing a market on a prime location to reach a wider audience.
This is an amazingly fun Belgian television series for children showing how people in the world live with animals. For this 16 episode series, our favourite Belgian musician/presenter Arne Vanhaecke, visited different homesteads and kraals in Karamoja. The series is produced by VTM Kzoom in collaboration with Veterinarians Without Borders Belgium. View all episodes here:
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”.
Cattle Auction Markets in Karamoja – This short video explains the importance of livestock marketing in Karamoja, recent trends in market activity, and how Karamoja is acting as a regional hub for livestock trade to other parts of Uganda, as well as Kenya and South Sudan.
Reduce plastic waste and #RefillMyBottle – We are happy and excited to be part of the RefillMyBottle initiative. This is a great way to motivate people to reduce the consumption of plastic bottles for both locals and tourists.
