One of our objectives is to preserve Karimojong Cultural Heritage through tourism and in collaboration with likeminded organisations. Therefore we partnered up with Miss Tourism Karamoja to contribute in enhancing the knowledge on culture of our future tourism ambassadors.
For a real tourism experience, the queens are camping at Kara-Tunga Guesthouse & Café and our guides provide a full day practical Boot Camp about tour guiding and cultural heritage.
The Boot Camp started with a Morning Culture & Nature Walk on Mt Moroto whereby knowledge was shared about the Tepeth-tribe (by oral history known as the original inhabitants of the Karamoja planes). Follow us this week for the rest of the boot camp taking place in a traditional village and ending with a night bush camping in the kraal.
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.
Final touches to Karamoja Tourist Information Centre in Moroto – After almost 2 years of operating from our humble guesthouse, we decided to find a more visible space in town…
The potential of tourism in Uganda is enormous. The ‘Pearl of Africa’ is famous for its gorilla’s and chimpanzees, but has much more to offer. The active tourist can go hiking, mountaineering and mountain biking. The cultural tourist will be amazed by the numerous local traditions, customs, arts & crafts.
It is a legal requirement that all employees undergo basic fire safety training at induction and periodically thereafter, expected annually in most workplaces. The training must be carried out by a competent person with suitable and sufficient skills and knowledge of fire safety.
