A place to have a full feeling of the uganda locals. Where you will have to participate in the local activities such as cooking, farming activities, Interacting with th orphans.
A tour guide doing safaris around uganda with the aim of showing tourists his beautiful country. I started this homestay with the aim of helping the orphans around my village.
The homestay is just 10 minutes drive to the gate entrance of queen Elizabeth National Park, just 20 minutes to kalinzu forest for chimpanzee trekking, just 10 minutes to kyambura gorge for chimpanzee trekking, just 3 hours drive to ishasha sector of Queen Elizabeth National Park, 5 minutes to the top of twin lakes.
