The community and Uganda cultural tours are mostly done in the rural communities next to the national parks. The community Safaris are the best representatives of the Uganda community tourism in the pearl of Africa. Community tourism represents some form of sustainable tourism in the whole of the African continent which allows the tourists to participate in the various activities that are carried out by the local communities like workshops, performances, homestays, accommodation, and the best interaction with the local people.
The Uganda community tour is the best-sustained safari package in Uganda since most cultural tours are based on the decision of the local people. They are the ones to decide on the safari cultural tour since most of the cultural organizations are owned by the local people and many are employed as drivers, cooks, guides, and cultural dancers to entertain the visitors and also as the local staff. The community tours always give back to the rural communities whereby the revenue collected from the community tours, they are put back into the community to develop health centers, build classrooms for community schools, plant trees in the deforested areas of the national park, launch the health awareness campaigns and the medical camps.
The Uganda community safaris also aim at preventing the malpractices of the local people who live near the national parks in Uganda such as poaching, deforestation, farming, and settling in the land of the park and the local people do receive some income from the community safari which has made the people move away from the poaching and other activities against the wildlife and the park’s land.
The Uganda community safari has brought in a lot of conservationists from different parts of the world as tourists and this tourism builds up an incentive for the local communities to bring great value to the natural environment which has led to sustainability for future visitors to Uganda.
The Uganda community safaris will give the tourists a chance to feel the authenticity of the African culture where the tourists have an opportunity to feel the real lifestyle of an African villager by tasting the local food, gathering fruits from the trees, playing games with the local children of the community which makes everything so interesting and fun.
