Overview
Boomu Village offers an authentic African cultural experience! The village still carries authenticity of an African touch whereby there is no running water, no hydro-electricity or solar lighting. Food is got from the garden direct onto the stove (locally made) and to your plate, nothing like refrigeration; all foodstuff is so fresh. People in the village eat with their hands whereby you wash them before and after eating but tourists are given forks if that is their choice. Ugandan meals are served though if one is in need of the western food; it can also be prepared including that of the Vegetarians. Also remember to say “thanks for cooking’ that is if you are served food in this community. You need an overnight stay, to have great opportunity of participating in all activities and also leave with knowledge about how to dig, making baskets, and in fact you can support the community by buying souvenirs that are made there. To have a true African touch of culture not read in books or internet you need to visit the Boomu village for first hand African village experience.
