At the mention of tourism, people think of wildlife, lakes and rivers but there is a new twist to it. At Excel Hort Consult agro-tourism and museum, you will have an exciting farm tour with demonstrations and recreational farm moments topped up with organic meals.
Perched on the foothills of Biharwe, Mbarara City, 10 minutes from the city centre on Mbarara –Masaka Highway is Echai agro-tourism and agriculture museum. This place grants guests a chance to interact with experts and professionals in agriculture, and local farmers. As you enter the gates is a community-based food and nutrition centre with well-trimmed demonstration gardens, marked herbal plants section, and an agro-tourism museum, a training centre, plus a coffee bar and hotel.
