Katanga Slum Tour with a Local Guide, Ouganda

Step into the vibrant heart of Kampala on a guided tour of Katanga, one of Uganda’s largest informal settlements. Often misrepresented, Katanga reveals a community rich in resilience, ingenuity, and untold stories.

Led by a local guide, you’ll explore its history, growth, and role in Kampala’s urban life. Wander through lively alleys lined with chapati stalls, artisans repurposing materials, and bustling markets alive with colour & energy.

Meet residents eager to share their perspectives and visit homes and youth projects that showcase education and innovation in the face of hardship.

While the tour acknowledges the realities of overcrowding, sanitation challenges, and poverty, it equally celebrates the spirit of perseverance—the laughter of children, the rhythms of church music, and the pride woven into daily life.

More than a tour, this is an exchange of cultures and perspectives. Proceeds support local initiatives, ensuring your visit leaves a lasting, positive impact.
