Kabarole Tours and Safari Ltd. is a highly commendable and unique eco-tourism organisation founded by the former primary school teacher Richard Tooro in 1992. Since then the organisation has become a driving force in nature conservation and in community development projects around Fort Portal and the Rwenzori region.
Kabarole Tours caters to the needs of travelers and offers a variety of tours that will give clients the experience of a lifetime and unforgettable memories through interactions with local people, activities and nature tours.
““From my early childhood, I’ve always wanted to show other people new things. That’s probably why I joined the joined the teaching profession in the 80’s. Later, when I’d started taking tourists around nearby villages, I realised that locals needed to be taught why conservation was so important. Some of them actually had no idea that they were destroying their environment. So through Kabarole Tours, we eventually started an ecotourism Institute which is in charge of the reclamation and conservation of Kihingami Wetland till date. With these two, I hope to bring even more positive change in my people’s lives and we continue to do the best we can.””
