Itinerary
Day 0: Arrival in Juba
- Upon arrival in Juba, after clearing customs, we transfer to the hotel, where we will have time to rest. In the evening, we gather for a briefing followed by a welcome dinner where we will get to know our Travel Fam!
- Overnight: Juba
Day 1: Juba & Visit to Dinka Cattle Camp
- The expedition begins in Juba. The morning will be dedicated to registering at the tourism office. Once registration is complete, the journey proceeds to a Dinka cattle camp. This immersive experience provides an opportunity to meet the Dinka tribe and witness their deep connection with their prized cattle. The day concludes with a breathtaking sunset photography session featuring the iconic Sudanese longhorn cows, before spending the night in tents at the cattle camp.
Day 2: Bor town & White Nile
- After sunrise and breakfast with the Dinkas, we continue our journey north to Bor, the capital of Jonglei State. Upon arrival, we board a traditional boat to navigate the White Nile, one of the most significant rivers in Africa.
- Our boat journey takes us into the heart of the Sudd, one of the world's largest wetlands. This vast and almost impassable swampland is home to unique wildlife and serves as a crucial ecosystem for both local communities and migratory birds. We will explore the narrow channels, observing fishermen at work and soaking in the untouched beauty of this remote region.
- This is a very unique experience, since the only bridge that crosses the Nile in South Sudan is in Juba.Then, we return to Bor for exploring the town .
- Overnight in Bor
Day 3: Terekeka & Mundari
- After an early breakfast, we set off for Terekeka, home to the Mundari people. The drive offers scenic views of South Sudan’s countryside, with occasional wildlife sightings and traditional villages along the way. By mid-afternoon, we reach a Mundari cattle camp, where we are welcomed by this proud and resilient tribe. Their camps, covered in a constant haze of smoke from burning cow dung (used to protect the cattle from insects), create an almost surreal atmosphere. Enjoy another photogenic sunset when the entire landscape is bathed in golden hues.
- Dinner will be enjoyed at camp, offering an opportunity to engage with the Mundari and learn about their customs.
Day 4: Full Day with the Mundari & Return to Juba
- This full-day experience allows travelers to fully immerse themselves in the extraordinary lifestyle of the Mundari people. We will witness their daily routines, from milking cows and crafting intricate hairstyles with ash to the unique way they train and care for their cattle.
- Midday, we take a break from the heat, relaxing in the shade and enjoying a simple but authentic meal with our Mundari hosts and we will start the drive back to Juba. Upon arrival in the city, there will be a short evening tour, allowing travelers to explore some key landmarks or enjoy a farewell dinner together.
- Overnight: Juba
Day 5: Goodbyes and Fly out
- After breakfast, the worst moment of every Expedition: we say goodbye. The Expedition is finished and we fly out.
