How it started
Deriving its name from ‘Kamihingo’ – the family name, the establishment of this farm is in two separate locations i.e. one in Ntusi sub-county Sembabule district and the other in Sanga sub-county – Kiruhura District. Kamihingo Agro-tourism farm is family-owned and managed. The Ntusi farm is hereditary and has since grown and expanded. This has resulted in the establishment of the Sanga Farm that neighbours Lake Mburo National park.
It is after being established as a tourism attraction that the two farms have started employing quite a number of people to run different farm activities. However, family members are also part of the daily routine management.
How to get there
The Ntusi farm is located in Kamoshe village Ntusi sub-county. From Kampala, it is about 210km via the Gomba – Sembabule road and driving time is about 4-hours. From Lyantonde you take the Kashagama road to Sembabule and it is about one hour’s drive.
The Sanga farm is located in Nshaara, about 235 km from Kampala City and can be accessed by road in about 4 hours’ drive using the Kampala – Mbarara highway.
Activities and attractions
Whilst on the farm, one can take part in the daily routine of cow management activities that include milking, grazing, watering, tick and pest control, churning among others.
The Sanga farm neighbours Lake Mburo National Park in Nshaara where one can see a variety of wildlife along with other activities such as hill climbing and boat cruising while the Ntuusi farm neighbours Bigo bya Mugenyi Archeological Site in Sembabule. The guided walks through the site accompanied by fascinating stories is an experience one would not forego for anything. There are also great opportunities for birding since the farm has recorded over 200 species of savanna birds.
Our visitors also enjoy the diverse culture of the Banyankole people through dances, songs, recitations (ebyevugo) and occasionally marriage-related ceremonies at the farm.
