About Amatsiko Tours
“We want to show you the beauty of our people and places—not just as tourists, but as friends.”
– Alex, Amatsiko Tours Founder
Your Journey with Amatsiko Tours
Imagine trekking through the heart of Uganda, coming face to face with majestic mountain gorillas, and sharing a meal with the people who call this place home. At Amatsiko Tours, it’s not just about what you’ll see—it’s about how you’ll connect. Your adventure with us will introduce you to the real Uganda, where every experience is a chance to make a lasting difference.
When you travel with us, you’re not just a visitor—you’re a part of something bigger. Founded by Alex and Alphonse, Amatsiko Tours was born out of a desire to give travellers like you a deeper, more meaningful experience. After starting Amatsiko Preparatory School for over 400 vulnerable students, many of whom are orphans, they realised that tourism could do more than just show you the sights. It could change lives—yours and the people you meet.
