The Great Trekkers Safaris seeks to differentiate itself as a unique social enterprise company which is focused at promoting sustainable tourism in Uganda. As a company we realized a genuine need of starting up a social enterprise that would not only benefit the owners but would also benefit and develop the communities. We happen to come from a region that is a hub of Tourism which has the best attractions but we realized that the available tour companies front profit making at the expense of the people in such communities. So we came up with this company that fronts Eco-tourism, Cultural & Environmental conservation. As a Company we support community projects like schools and conservation projects within Lake Mburo National park by giving back 20% of our company profits to the communities for Charity initiatives.
