About Uganda
Winston Churchill famously named Uganda "The Pearl of Africa" for its emerald landscapes, warm people, and astonishing diversity of bird and primate life. Straddling the equator, Uganda’s mist-veiled mountains, dense rainforests, and tranquil lakes create an intimate, life-changing safari destination.
Face to Face with Mountain Gorillas
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is home to almost half of the world’s surviving mountain gorillas. Tracking these gentle giants through dense bamboo and rainforest is universally hailed as one of the world’s most profound wildlife encounters.
Primate Capital & Classic Savannah
In Kibale Forest, over 13 primate species thrive, offering premier chimpanzee habituation experiences. Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth National Park features rare tree-climbing lions resting in sycamore fig branches, and boat cruises along the Kazinga Channel bring you within metres of bathing hippos and water buffalo.
The Mighty Nile & Rwenzori Mountains
At Murchison Falls, the Nile River compresses through a narrow 7-meter gorge before plunging 43 meters into a thunderous abyss. Further west, the Rwenzori "Mountains of the Moon" boast equatorial glaciers and afro-alpine landscapes for intrepid trekkers.
