Three fourths of Uganda‘s tourists visit from neighboring countries, proving that the East African country may be more of a bucket list destination for Westerners. Uganda’s natural beauty and rich history are an untapped resource for travelers—after all, Winston Churchill once coined Uganda “the pearl of Africa.”

This week, Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes to you from Kampala, Uganda at the Speke Resort Munyonyo. We catch up with some of our regulars, but meet quite a few impressive locals as well.

Peter gets a chance to learn all about the history of Uganda as it is displayed at the Igongo Cultural Centre from owner James Tumusiime. He also catches up with an old friend, Amos Wekesa—the go-to guy for anything in Uganda.
