It is a land-locked country yet is home to the second-largest freshwater body in the world and largest in Africa. It is was also referred to by Sir Churchill as “the Pearl of Africa” that was mainly due to what he saw in the country and was beyond his imaginations and expectations.

Good things are always given attention to by many that is why this gorilla-tracking safari is the main motive for many travelers’ influx to Uganda. They are protected in Bwindi impenetrable forest national park found in the south western part of the country offering a wider range of habituated families in different regions like Rushaga, Nkuringo, Buhoma, and several others.
This activity began way back in 1993 after the Mubare gorilla family was announced ready for tracking and the second family group of gorillas called Habinyanja was also availed for tracking. Gorillas are one of the rarest and most intriguing apes and the fact that Uganda has their biggest population in the world makes gorilla trekking a must-do marveling activity at the unique gorillas in this once in a lifetime experience.

Just as Kidepo valley national park, is the same way this culture too, too untapped, still in its real form and amazingly best secret and inspiration to preserve culture., the land of the Karamojong in northeastern Uganda.

Visit East Africa’s largest traditional village and sleep in a kraal as you watch the stars or “Manyata” for a full authentic African cultural experience. With their extended families fenced with a narrow entrance/ gate, the compound is too large and yet partitioned in the middle where a father, sons and other members also live in the same compound under one outbound fence made of local materials like logs, grass and several materials.
This is also the best area to have a moment of the car tyres made shoes which are durable and longest lasting than any other. You can also have time to dance through their cultural dances, purchase their unique appealing handmade crafts line bungles, scurfs, and many others. Don’t miss vising this great Karamoja.
