Package Overview

This Uganda safari and holiday starts with a visit to Missionaries of the Poor charity home in Mengo- Kisenyi, a suburb of Kampala city. As part of our social responsibility we extend support to this home that looks after children with disabilities. So your visit to the home is an inspiration and restoration of hope to the kids and it is a reason we came up with this solidarity safari. Find out more about the home and our role on this visit. Experience the love of these kids on this visit.

You will then travel to the north-eastern part of Uganda where you will savor the delights of one of Africa’s surviving rustic cultures. The Karamojongs are close to the famous Maasai of Kenya and Tanzania because of their lifestyle. You will therefore relish and immerse in the fascinating values and traditions of the Kajong cultural group. As part of a local community tourism product, you will visit the locals and immerse in their daily practices.
