@DenisDukeUG I believe we wouldn't be discussing about tribes in 2026 and also the inter marriages taking place, we all have brothers, sisters, cousins who have married into a mother tribe. My two cents
A week of progress, partnerships, and positive milestones for Uganda’s tourism sector.
Our latest UTB Gazette brings together the stories making headlines across destination marketing, conservation, industry leadership, regional collaboration, and cultural excellence.
Catch up on the key highlights shaping Uganda’s tourism sector this week below.

I was glad to launch the 10th Pearl of Africa Tourism Expo at Munyonyo today. Uganda remains one of the most unique tourism destinations because of our favourable climate, rich culture, peace and natural beauty.
Regarding Ebola, there is no cause for alarm. We are applying targeted measures and continuing to work scientifically to keep people safe while keeping our economy open.
As our economy grows towards upper-middle-income status, we shall also improve the tourism experience, including friendlier visa arrangements to attract more visitors. I therefore welcome the world to come and explore Uganda, the Pearl of Africa.
Welcome to the 10th edition of the Pearl of Africa Tourism Expo🥳🥳
Over the next 3 days, Uganda will showcase her very best to the world through strategic engagements, business networking, and meaningful conversations shaping the future of tourism.
