Next, you’ll journey to meet the Dinka, one of the world’s tallest peoples, and spend time in their community, learning how cattle drive their society.
You’ll also explore Juba’s lively markets, historic mausoleums, and palaces before departing with a deeper understanding of two of South Sudan’s most iconic tribes.
What To Expect

Juba - Mundari Villages
After arrival, drive towards the Mundari villages. South Sudan is still a virgin country with a lot of untouched land.

Mundari Cattle Camp and Community
Today you will wake up early to catch the sun rise over the South Sudan plains, a perfect time for photography. The whole day you will keep interacting with the Mundaris, visiting the cattle camp, Nykabor village where you are to have your lunch. The day will expose you to the local way of life for the Mundari people, how they raise their cattles, the most famous game played here; wrestling and so many other things that make up the Mundari beliefs and cultures.
