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!
Trekking Uganda’s Mount Kadam with Kenya-based Dutch primatologist Yvonne A. de Jong and American conservationist and ecologist Thomas M. Butynski have had an interest for what lies within the forgotten corners of Uganda’s Karamoja sub-region and bordering Kenya’s Turkana and West-Pokot counties.
By Herbert Byaruhanga – This bird was our bird of the day. According to the Birdlife International distribution map, the White-bellied Canary (Crithagra dorsostriata) enters Uganda slightly.
We’re glad to have met the globetrotters Rinus and Helga that are driving around the world since 2014! Yes it’s incredible, and they are incredible as well.
Three weeks tailor-made Trip through Uganda’s Karamojaland – We (Dutch couple) made a trip lasting almost three weeks through Karamojaland. And we are so glad that we did this!!
Karamoja is Definitely Uganda off the beaten track!
