VIRUNGA ECOTOURS – EMPOWERING WOMEN THROUGH TOUR GUIDING
In 2024, Virunga Ecotours launched a groundbreaking Female Tour Guide Training and Internship Program in collaboration with Red Rocks Academy. This initiative was created to break down the social and economic barriers that have historically limited women’s participation in Uganda’s tourism industry.
Building Voices. Opening Doors. Empowering the Future with Virunga Ecotours
At Virunga Ecotours, we believe that travel should not only move people across borders it should move hearts, change perspectives, and open up opportunities. That’s why we’re proud to champion the Academy for Women in Tourism a regional initiative dedicated to increasing women’s participation and leadership within the tourism sector.
