Most offer world-class service you would not receive in a hotel in your own country.
You will have amenities such as comfortable beds adorned with plush linens. Your room, cottage, or tent will have an ensuite bath with Western-style toilets, hot showers, or bathtubs.
There will always be a private verandah with views of the Rainforest, Savannah, Crater Lake, or the Nile—the perfect setting for your sunrise coffee or an early evening sundowner.

Options can include a traditional Bush Breakfast or Sundowner snacks or drinks. You can even enjoy a Sunrise Breakfast on a Nile Boat Cruise or a picnic in the wild.

Meet the First People of the Rainforest – the Indigenous Batwa:
The Batwa lived in the forests of southwestern Uganda long before the Bantu Tribes came.
They lived as hunter-gatherers in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Mgahinga Gorilla Park. Today, you will find them as conservation refugees residing outside the parks.
They will take you on a walk in the forest where you see the forest differently, through the eyes of its first People, the Batwa people. Read more about the Batwa here.

The Ik are another displaced people group that is found on Mount Morungole. The only way to see them is to embark on an eight-hour roundtrip hike up an extinct volcano. The views into Kenya’s massive Rift Valley are worth the hike.
The Ik are recognized as an indigenous group on subsistence farming and goat herding. Here, the bride’s price is beehives. Read more about the Ik People.

The Karamojong are warrior-herdsmen who live in the remote Karamoja region of northeastern Uganda, where cattle are royalty.
