Dear Friend,
Welcome to our new page dedicated to tourism development in Northern Uganda.
This effort has built upon a 3-year work of Wildlife Conservation Society (www.wcs.org) in the northern landscapes and is founded on a detailed knowledge of several landscapes and its people. We have become very fond of the places which deserve and require much needed investment for visitors to enjoy its beauty.
Tourism in Uganda has largely recovered from the political instability in the 1970’s and 1980’s. In the Southern and Western regions of the country, private investment in tourist facilities is evident and this has made it possible for these sub-regions to handle the increasing number of visitors. In northern Uganda, tourism attractions ranging from wildlife-rich landscapes, scenic rivers, to cultural and historical sites, could not be accessed due to the insecurity, which at times included Murchison Fall National Park.

With the return of peace to northern Uganda, there is an increase in the number of visitors to the region. Currently, most are either business tourists or family and friends of people working in the region. Significant opportunities exist to expand the scope and scale of tourism activities throughout northern Uganda.
Best start to learn about the region is to watch the video below and download our booklet.
