    Ugandan leading Domestic Tourism operators & Lake Mburo based safari & farm lodges & a bevy of socialites & celebrities come together to activate Wild Heartbeat Travel Experiences starting with #Love in the Wilderness, an Unforgettable Valentine’s Day Experience at Lake Mburo National Park

    Breathtaking Uganda is a leading travel design company dedicated to crafting individually- inspired and unique travel experiences for big groups of travelers in and around Uganda crossing into East Africa and the world at large.

    “For years, our approach to designing personalized journeys has set us apart from larger competitors. We go beyond the ordinary and strive to uncover undiscovered destinations while highlighting hidden gems off the beaten track. Our goal is for our travelers to immerse themselves in the vibrant experience of Uganda firsthand and later through personalized reality tv series like audio-visual experiences.

    Breathtaking Uganda is delighted to announce and present to Uganda a never done before activation of  “Wild Heartbeat Travel Experiences-Love in the Wilderness in Lake Mburo National Park. This is a mesmerizing bespoke Valentine’s Day experience-taking place from 14th to 18th February at the captivating Lake Mburo National Park commonly known as “whispers of the wild, in Uganda Wildlife parlance. This unprecedented event has done what has previously been thought to be impossible.

    In an unprecedented move meant to leave a lasting legacy on the Ugandan Domestic Tourism ecosystem, several Ugandan tour and travel companies, safari lodges and several players have come together to ensure domestic tourism promotion is perceived in a new game changing light. The tour and travel companies that are joining the Wildheartbeat experiences include but are not limited to Laura Kagame’s Travelneza, Momo Sheeba’s Iter Holidays and Jackie Kemirembe’s Platinum tours.

    This exceptional event, that is organized by Breathtaking Uganda in strong partnership with Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) Ministry of Tourism, Wildlife and Antiquities, Miss Uganda Foundation, Gators Café, Kigarama Wilderness Safari Lodge, Emburara Farm Lodge, Ishaazi Farm lodge, Mpogo safari lodge, arcadia lodge plus Almost Famous DJs, guarantees an extraordinary fusion of nature’s beauty and the essence of love. Attendees will delve into an array of immersive activities, including thrilling game drives, serene boat cruises, and enchanting nature walks, all harmonized by the breathtaking backdrop of Lake Mburo.

    Guests will have their pick between the Emburara Farm Lodge, Kigarama Wilderness Lodge, Ishaazi farm lodge, Mpogo safari lodge, UWA bandas and campsite for their accommodation, with both facilities offering the perfect backdrop to relax with your loved one and enjoy the serenity of the Pearl of Africa.

    Isaiah Jobs Rwanyekiro, CEO of Breathtaking Uganda, emphasizes the significance of experiences like “Love in the Wilderness.”
    “We want to show Ugandans that they can luxuriate in a four-day adventure for the same cost as a single night out in Kampala, all while being safe and comfortable. The idea is for the ordinary Uganda and travel lover to know that for 3 nights and four days, you can tour Lake Mburo National Park while daily sleeping in a four-star lodge like Emburara Farm Lodge or Ishaazi or Kigarama or Mpogo or UWA bandas where every luxurious amenity is available and you are transported there using of course comfortable group transport for only 3.5m or 2.5 or even for as low as 500k depending on the weight of your wallet which is a normal bill most Kampala socialites pay in one night,” he adds.

    Adding to the allure of the event, celebrated artistes including The Mith aka Mr. So Ug, Viboyo, gorgeous Laika music, legendary producer Magic Washington, comedian Salvador and many others will grace the stage, infusing the atmosphere with romance and musical celebration in a set up that will never be forgotten at Acacia Country Inn in Mbarara city on Saturday 17th February 2024.
    Magic Washington, one of the anticipated performers, shares his excitement, saying, “Anticipate good vibes and a good time with fellow travel lovers. This event promises both breathtaking natural vibes and electrifying music from myself, The Mith, and many other performers,” he explains.
    The Mith adds to this saying, “It’s a getaway with your loved one, and a chance to discover the beauty of the Pearl of Africa. I will be performing alongside The Almost Famous Deejays to conclude the festivities. What better way to celebrate the month of love!”

    To ensure inclusivity, Wild Heartbeat is offering a range of packages tailored to different budget preferences. Ticket prices vary from 500,000 to 3.5 million Ugandan shillings, accommodating diverse accommodation choices.

    Go do us proud in Puerto Rico, Thomas Tayebwa tells Miss Uganda Elizabeth Bagaya ahead of Miss World show

    Government Chief Whip Hon Thomas Tayebwa has said the country is hopeful that Miss Uganda Elizabeth Bagaya will do well at Miss World beauty pageant in Puerto Rico.
    During the grand send off to go and represent Uganda at the 70th Miss World Beauty pageant under the theme “Beauty with Purpose” at his office in Kampala, Hon. Thomas Tayebwa said this is a huge opportunity for Uganda because we all know the exploits we made in 2018 when our last representative Quiin Abenakyo who became 5th overall and first in Africa.
    Hon. Thomas Tayebwa sending off Miss Elizabeth Bagaya at his office in Kampala
    He said as a country, they have high hopes that Miss Elizabeth Bagaya will do even better.
    He called on the beauty queen to perfectly sell the image of the country out there.
    He lauded Breathtaking Uganda of Isaiah Rwanyekiro and Miss Uganda team for driving this campaign through Tourism.
    Below is the full speech from the Government Chief Whip who also doubles as the MP for Ruhinda North County in Mitooma District.
    “I want to welcome you to this office first as government official, and more importantly as someone who loves this country and supports initiatives that help promote and drive the country forward.
    I therefore want to thank on behalf of the Government of Uganda, the Breathtaking Uganda team and the Miss Uganda team who are behind this initiative to give our daughter Elizabeth Bagaya a grand send off to go and represent us at the 70th Miss World Beauty pageant under the theme “Beauty with Purpose”,
    This is a huge opportunity for Uganda because we all know the exploits we made in 2018 when our last representative Quiin Abenakyo performed so well that she became 5th overall and 1st in Africa.
    This time round as I have heard our daughter Miss Bagaya stands a huge chance to bring the crown home and so this function is just to send her to Puerto Rico with our blessing. Elizabeth, our hopes are high that you will do us proud in Puerto Rico. You have already done great by being here, but our prayer for you is that God guides you to the crown.
    The team accompanying our beauty queen to Fort Portal for this sendoff you deserve a pat in the back for loving Uganda. As a government we are working on policies that will enable domestic tourism to grow. The images you capture and share on your platforms are what motivates many others to join in. So as you visit Kabarole Crater Lakes, Sempaya Hot Springs and boil your eggs, as you visit Mabere ga Nyinamwiru, Kyeganywa Hilltop and Karuzika Palace share those images with the world and let the world see what we have
    For Breathtaking Uganda and the Miss Uganda team, we need to engage more often so that such opportunities we utilize to market what we have. To the partners, like Nyaika Hotel and many other well-wishers, we thank you and appreciate your support
    Go with our blessings,” Hon. Thomas Tayebwa.
