Ngeno Travellers is a fast growing small to medium enterprise in the Ugandan Tourism industry birthed from the heart of Kalaki district in Eastern Ugandan – the home of the Kumam tribe. Growing up as young boys grazing cattle in the grasslands of Awiagungo, we experienced early-on the diversity and mystical range of birds such as the standard-winged nightjar, short-tailed warbler; primates such as monkeys; reptiles such as crocodiles and herbivores such as hippos. Through shared experiences and hair rising but exciting moments, a dream was nurtured to adventure diff¬erent wild lands in the country and share with the world the beautiful scenery, amazing sounds of di¬fferent birds and animals not only in the small Olyanai swamp in Kalaki district but Uganda as a country. 20 years later, Ngeno Travellers was birthed….
Ngeno is a Kumam word translated to mean “to know”. Ngeno’s ultimate goal is to facilitate and provide an avenue to discover the hidden treasures of the wild. The mind therapy freely overfed in the wild by nature is only achieved by those who seek an experience like the local boys in Olyanai village.
Ngeno’s top priority is to facilitate our client’s adventure and exploits by providing personalized and well though-out end-to-end tourism services. If we can exceed your expectation within your budget, our goal is achieved! Ngeno works closely with a number of popular lodges and hotels to provide the ultimate comfort and secure experience in the remotest areas such as Bwindi and Kidepo parks. We strive to provide a nostalgic experience to our clients for every moment they spend with us. We look forward to hosting and sharing great moments with you in Uganda while creating lasting memories together!!
