Tengeru Cultural Tourism Programme was established in 2004 by Mama Gladness O. Pallangyo with a vision to connect international visitors with the local Meru community while preserving the environment and supporting community development.
Through our partnership with Duluti Green Foundation Trust (DGFT), we support local schools, orphanages, and vital projects in Water, Hygiene, Sanitation, and Environmental Conservation. Over 45% of our tourism income is directed back into community outreach programs.
