Uganda Safaris Tours and Holidays

Uganda is a beautiful country of lush, bountiful rainforests and lakes that are home to a rich variety of wildlife, including a number of rare and endemic species – forest elephants, giant forest hogs, the Ugandan cob and the prehistoric shoebill stork, among others.

The greatest attraction of all, however, are the 330 or so remaining mountain gorillas found in the Uganda’s two gorilla parks, Bwindi & Mgahinga, along with their close cousin, the chimpanzee, and many other species of primate.

Uganda Safaris Tours and Holidays’s other beautiful national parks and game reserves encompass varied scenery and terrain: volcanoes, Rift Valley Lakes, the River Nile, mist-covered mountains, waterfalls and savannahs. Boat trips in Queen Elizabeth National Park are especially good for viewing hippo, buffalo and elephant. The park’s savannahs are great for game viewing and home to tree-climbing lions, while chimpanzees can be tracked in the Kyambura Gorge.

Murchison Falls is the biggest National Park in Uganda, offering stunning habitats for a variety of game; it is also great for bird watching. The Rwenzori ‘Mountains of the Moon’ are the perfect escape for those keen trekkers and mountaineers with a real sense for adventure. With such a wealth of wildlife & beautiful scenery, it is not surprising that Uganda was the most popular safari destination early last century and is now enjoying a renaissance amongst discerning travellers.
