Uganda
Uganda — the “Pearl of Africa” — combines lush rainforests, rolling savannahs, and incredible primate experiences. It’s one of the best places on earth for gorilla trekking and offers varied safari and adventure options.
Why Visit Uganda
Book Uganda for once-in-a-lifetime gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, chimpanzee tracking in Kibale National Park, wildlife and boat safaris in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and the thundering waters of Murchison Falls. Uganda’s compact itineraries make it possible to combine primate treks with classic game viewing.
What You’ll Love
You’ll love the emotional impact of meeting mountain gorillas up close, the friendliness of local communities, and the sheer variety of landscapes — misty forests, crater lakes, and riverine wilderness. Uganda is perfect for travelers seeking meaningful wildlife encounters, excellent birding, and off-the-beaten-track discovery.
Best Time to Visit
