Karamoja Female Guides Training in Northeastern Uganda – While the global tourism sector is struggling to have the tourism business back to its normal operations, we decided not to stop offering our services. Kara-Tunga’s Karamoja Tourism Academy in collaboration with Nature Uganda held a training for women in Karamoja on how to get involved in tourism services.
The Karamoja region, (Northeastern Uganda) is one of the hidden gems of Uganda. It is very rich in cultural diversity, has over 50 bird species that are not seen in the other parts of the country, has about 10 or more mammals that are not known to be in other regions of Uganda.
60 women from over 6 districts joined the training. Herbert Byaruhanga and Nature Uganda promised to be coming back to check the progress of the trained women. Mr. Byaruhanga is confident that some of the trainees will take birding as specialisation, others will do culture while others will concentrate on adventure.
A team of Ugandan content makers travelled to northeastern Uganda and asked Kara-Tunga to host them in Karamoja sub-region and give them an authentic taste of Karimojong culture.
With immediate effect (Monday July 26, 2021), the Republic of Kenya has waived the requirement of obtaining a visa to enter Kenya for Pasport holders of Republic of South Sudan. Premised on the principle of reciprocity, the Republic of South Sudan has also waived visa requirements for Kenyans wishing to visit their country.
Today we officially launched the ‘Boost the Employability of Tourism staff in Elgon and Karamoja‘ project! The project is part of a larger initiative to enable sustainable and decent income-generating employability for Ugandan youth.
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”.
