Together with a friend I visited the Ik tribe in northern part of Karamoja, and it turned out to be the most remote and culturally interesting region in Uganda I ever traveled! Don’t expect hotels and well catered camp sites.
With the help of Kara Tunga we stayed in people homes or camped in their gardens, with magnificent views across Turkana! I can highly recommend this hidden gem to everybody who likes a bit of adventure.’
We stayed in Kara Tunga guest house for three night. The rooms were lovely and clean and the food was the best we had in weeks! Hats off to Ivan the best cook in the country 🙂
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.
Bicycle Tour through Karamoja – I was in Moroto for work and decided to stay with Kara Tunga Guest House for the weekend. The rooms are clean with comfortable beds and hot showers.

Starting point to explore Karamoja
Kara-Tunga guesthouse is your best hub / starting point for adventures in the region. Great food, good vibe, spacious rooms and cool staff with a lot of knowledge about the region. They offer a lot of options to explore Karamoja like visiting the Ik Tribe, A night with Karamoja’s nomad Warriors and the Karamoja Village Experience.
