Destination Jungle is a tour and travel operator created with the objective to bring quality services, professionalism and creativity in the tourism industry. Established in 2008, Destination Jungle operates as Destination Management Company (DMC). Along the years we developed tours and services covering the region of Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi, with main office in Kampala and a branch in Kigali.
We embraced the philosophy of sustainable tourism in our operations and choices. The company invested in the creation of the eco-lodges branded Uganda Jungle Lodges.
