A driver came to pick us up in Jinja, after that we drove to Nakapiripirit, we slept in a hotel and the day after we started early to hike (and camp) Mt. Kadam. Great guides, good materials (tents etc) and a lot of fun.
The hike was difficult, but totally worth it! After that we had an overnight-experience in the ‘kraal‘ near Moroto, we met local people in the village and sang together. The day after – with a lot of muscle pain – we went for a mountain bike tour in Moroto. We could use a room in the Kara-Tunga Guesthouse Moroto for showering after.
We also had breakfast and lunch at the guesthouse, beautiful guesthouse and it’s a shame we didn’t had the chance to sleep here. After some rest we drove to Kidepo Valley National Park, to celebrate New Years Eve. An amazing opportunity to celebrate this with a campfire, traditional dance and surrounded by wild animals.
On the 1st day of 2018, we went for 2 game drives in Kidepo and spotted a lion! Overall, it was a well organised tour and very interesting to see how people live in the north of Uganda. RECOMMENDED!!
Authentic Karamoja tour – I spent 5 days in the Karamoja region of Uganda in March – I was looking for a culturally sensitive experience visiting the people of the area and that is was the staff at Kara-Tunga provided.
In collaboration with the Mountain Slayers of Uganda we developed a weekend trip to Karamoja including a morning on the mountain, an authentic cultural experience and a visit to Kidepo Valley National Park.
Impact of COVID-19 on Community Tourism on Mt Moroto – The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic has reached even the most remote areas of Uganda. The host communities used to benefit from additional income through community tourism and freedom of movement for local business.
