Kara-Tunga opens Karamoja’s first Tourist Information Centre along the main street in Moroto town on 1st April 2018.
For 18 months Kara-Tunga has been working hard to draw tourists to the Karamoja region in northeast Uganda. One of the most important lessons we learned is that the lack of information has kept many travellers from taking the eastern route to Kidepo Valley National Park or traveling southwards to Sipi Falls, Mount Elgon, Jinja and Kampala.
Community opportunity
Karamoja Tourist Information Centre offers local entrepreneurs and community members an opportunity to display and market their products and services like tour guides, accommodations, car rentals and local artists.
Tour guides
Local tour guides play an important role in connecting travellers with their natural habitat and rich cultural heritage. The Karamoja Tourist Information Centre offers the ability to book an experienced and reliable local guide for a pre-designed guided tour or a fully customised private expedition.
Arts & Crafts
The Karamoja Tourist Information Centre supports local artists by offering training to improve product quality and providing a market on a prime location to reach a wider audience.
At Kara-Tunga, we’re passionate about sharing the beauty and culture of Karamoja with you through our travel experiences and places to stay. Now, we’re excited to unveil a new way to experience Karamoja – with our Impact Tours!
Robin Y, Nov 2022 – Kara-Tunga is one of the most unique experiences i have had. So different from the rest of Uganda, at the top of the Mountains on the Kenya-Uganda escarpment, the views are breath taking.
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.
