Kara-Tunga is the perfect base if you want to explore the region of Karamoja! I stayed there 5 days to collect info for my reportage and I found: very kind hospitality by Cristine at the reception, very skilled guides such as Daniel and Timothy, very comfortable accommodation and great cuisine with also very gentle waiters. I recommend this place to everyone! – Filos Ganga (August 29, 2023)
“Daniel took us to a traditional Karamoja village. As a Karamojong himself, he shared his own childhood experiences. With pride, he showed us how they live. We were a bit scared at the start. Daniel eased us and we really enjoyed such an encounter with this way of life.” – Petra Pasman (October 5, 2023)
Kara-Tunga hosted a renown Belgium journalist to reveal Uganda’s untouched Karamoja region. He quoted Karamoja as “Off the Beaten Path” and his experience “Out of Africa”. Read his travel report in Belgiums biggest newspaper ‘Het Laatste Nieuws’ featuring the Karamoja region, Kidepo Valley National Park and Authentic cultural tours of Kara-Tunga.
Things to do in Abim – Abim is a unique geographical location with rugged mountains and lush green vegetation. The people of Abim do not identify themselves with their Karimojong or Lango neighbours, they find themselves unique and go by the name of Ethur.
We are proud to present the Karamoja Tourism Destination Management Plan (DMP) for Uganda’s emerging tourism destination ‘Karamoja’. The DMP is a roadmap for turning Karamoja into a thriving sustainable tourist destination in Uganda.
