Alakara Travels takes you beyond the familiar path to Uganda’s cultures, connections, and landscapes.
Alakara means “thank you” in the Akarimojong language of northeastern Uganda. In the neighbouring Ateso language, it also means “happiness.” At its heart, alakara expresses joy, gratitude, and connection—exactly what we hope every traveller feels on our journeys.
Founded in Uganda, Alakara Travels is owned by a team with strong ties to Norway, where we also run our sister company, Alakara reiser. This connection allows us to blend deep local roots with an international perspective. Our love for Uganda drives us to share its vibrant culture, breathtaking landscapes, and incredible wildlife, alongside inspiring people with curious travellers. We believe travel can be a force for good—when it’s rooted in respect, curiosity, and genuine connection.

Uganda is a country of contrasts and beauty: lush mountains, golden savannahs, bustling towns, and quiet villages. It’s home to rich wildlife—from savannah herds and birds to forest-dwelling primates—where you can witness nature up close. Here, you can run a half marathon alongside world champions, hike through ancient forests, and share stories around a fire with local hosts.
We specialize in Uganda tours that go beyond sightseeing. Whether you’re joining a running adventure, a cultural immersion, or a safari, every trip is designed to bring you closer to the heart of Uganda.
