Uganda Safaris - An Overview

Uganda Overview

Uganda is a truly “authentic” safari destination - definitely less sophisticated than Tanzania or Kenya in terms of infrastructure and not in the same “big game” league, but equally untouched and as genuine as Africa gets.

Uganda’s gorillas, chimps, birds and the wider range of special-interest attractions (from butterflies to orchids) makes it a perfect match for first timers and seasoned African visitors alike.

Queen Elizabeth National Park and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest are two of our favourite destinations, and we can recommend them personally and sincerely. Also have a look at Kibale for great primate safaris.
