My major interests were gorilla trekking and visiting local communities in Uganda , most especially the Karajong people in northern Uganda .
I was so lucky to visit the karajong people in moroto district of northern Uganda, it was An amazing experience getting engaged with them , also kidepo NP is one of its kind , lots of elephants in large numbers.

From kibale we went to queen Elizabeth NP and finally Bwindi NP for gorilla trekking which was our night of the journey.

I thank our guide James , James was amazing , his knowledge about communities , animals and plants kept our journey so exciting. Also accommodation was perfect , the lodges were good and in good locations.
The only small problem was journey between kidepo NP and murchison NP, it’s long and tiresome but we managed to, James made sure we are comfortable and not so tired , also my advice to travelers, they should plan to fly from Entebbe airport to kidepo NP , if they are interested in that area because it’s so tiresome as well due to long distance.
