Home to over 50% of the world's endangered gorillas, Uganda is a wildlife lover's paradise, with plenty to see and the chance to get off the beaten track in an unspoilt setting. Uganda has established herself as a niche safari destination for Gorilla Trekking, game viewing, birding, and Chimpanzee tracking.
Uganda's lush landscapes, from the misty Bwindi Impenetrable Forest to the vast savannahs of Queen Elizabeth National Park, offer a unique blend of adventure and tranquility. The breathtaking scenery is matched only by the warmth of its people and the richness of its culture.
Whether trekking through dense forests to encounter mountain gorillas or cruising along the Nile to witness the mighty Murchison Falls, Uganda promises unforgettable experiences for every traveler.
The best time to visit Uganda is from June to August and December to February, which are the dry seasons. Wildlife viewing is at its peak then. Primate walks in the forest are a big part of any safari in Uganda. The habitat of rainforests is, by default, very wet, and you can't avoid rain completely.
