With all its cultural diversity and the sense of pride that many Ugandans feel in showcasing their customs and traditions, the potential of cultural tourism in Uganda is tremendous. Since most of the cultural tourism initiatives in the country are initiated by grassroots organizations, their profits tend to help the local communities directly. However, many of these initiatives are fragmented and lack the linkages to be directly incorporated in typical itineraries.  

Although all regions of Uganda have great potential for cultural tourism, the poorest region of Uganda, Karamoja, is particular promising for that activity. The Karimojong, the Ik and other tribes in that region often live as semi-nomadic pastoralists and hold on tightly to their traditions. A visit to the kraal where herdsmen sleep with their cattle together at night is a truly wonderful experience that cannot be found anywhere else in the country.
