Cultural Tours Around Lake Mburo – Uganda is one of the African countries with a rich cultural heritage that local people work hard to preserve for future generations. To learn more about the true culture and way of life, visit the villages around Lake Mburo.
Here, you will be welcomed by cattle keepers from the Banyankole tribe. They lived in the park area before it became a National Park and later moved to the nearby lands where they divided the land into small ranches and farming plots.
Visitors to Lake Mburo are invited to join the daily activities of the locals. Milking cows may seem difficult at first, but with help from a local, you will find it interesting and educational.
You can also help brush the animals to keep them clean before leading them to the grazing fields. After a long day, gather with the villagers to enjoy roasted meat.
You will be shown how it is prepared the local way, along with a meal made from cow butter without using fire, which is very interesting and tasty.
Dancing and singing are important parts of the local culture that you should not miss. The joyful music and dance bring laughter and make your cultural visit special.
When the drums start, both men and women stand and dance for their guests, showing the peace and friendship found in Africa.
If you like the dance moves, you are welcome to join in, as visitors are always invited to take part.
Handmade crafts will be available for you to buy and take home as a keepsake from Uganda. Do not leave without trying some of the local dishes, including the Kiganda menu, which is also found in Kampala.
Some of the dishes you may taste are matooke, luwombo, meat, groundnuts, and Irish potatoes.
You will also be amazed by the beauty of Kampala, the capital city, which is full of economic activities that help improve the lives of many people.
