Uganda
Uganda is a prime wildlife destination, offering both forest and savannah experiences. Gorilla trekking in Bwindi and Mgahinga Gorilla National Parks, and chimpanzee tracking in Kibale, are key attractions. Queen Elizabeth, Murchison Falls, and Kidepo Valley National Parks offer excellent safari experiences. Uganda is home to elephants, hippos, buffalo, lions, giraffes, and over 1,000 bird species. The dry season, from December to February and June to September, is ideal for safaris and gorilla trekking, while the wet season offers fewer crowds and lower prices. Uganda’s parks are open year-round, each season providing unique opportunities.
