Most of the time, terraced agriculture, which makes the hills look like they are ringed in a million different shades of green, can be seen near rainforests. Most safaris will head west from the main point of arrival in Entebbe to the wide belt of national parks that make up the western border.
Uganda is right at the point where the eastern savannah and western jungle ecosystems meet. This makes it a great place for a wide range of safaris, from traditional game drives through golden grassland in search of lions or elephants to trekking through lush rainforest in your hiking boots.
The birding is the best in the world. The different types of habitats attract a huge number of species, including the shoebill, which is the crowning glory of the area and a sight that every serious birder wants to see.
Queen Elizabeth National Park and Murchison Falls, two of Uganda’s traditional “Big Five” parks, do not yet have as many animals as similar parks to the east. Still, you can still see a lot of wildlife, and the parks have a small fraction of the number of tourists that may ruin the experience for those who go to more developed places. Here, seeing a lion, elephant, or leopard is a special moment that is rarely shared with other cars.
Who Does It Help?
People who want to go on the best primate safari of their lives should go to Uganda. Chimpanzees, colobus monkeys, vervet monkeys, de Brazza monkeys, and a lot of other species live in Kibale and Queen Elizabeth National Park.
The Impenetrable Forest of Bwindi is a safe place for the last mountain gorillas. There is no way to overstate how much gorilla trekking can change your life. Birdwatchers also want to go there because Uganda is home to more than a thousand different species in its many habitats.
A serious birder might see the beautiful francolin, the dwarf honeyguide, or the purple-breasted sunbird, among many other species that are hard to find elsewhere. And, like seeing the gorilla, seeing the shoebill is one of the best parts. Uganda is the best safari destination when it comes to these two things.
It is also a great place to go on a traditional safari by car or boat, thanks to its lush habitats and wide range of species. Uganda is the best place to go if you want something new and exciting.
How Long To Stay?
The length of a typical safari in Uganda can change. People who want to find gorillas will fly into Entebbe and spend the night on the shores of Lake Victoria. The next morning, they will fly to the southwestern parks.
Experts say that you should track the gorillas twice because the first time is often too much for people to take in. After seeing the gorillas, most people fly back to Entebbe to continue their safari or start the Ugandan safari circuit, which includes trips to Kibale, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and Murchison Falls.
Further north, at the very top of the country, travelers can go to parks like Kidepo to see wide open spaces that haven’t been touched. However, most people stay between four and six days.
When Do I Need To Go?
Uganda is a good place to visit any time of year, but getting around can be hard during the rainy seasons (March to May and November to December). Rain also makes it harder to find your way in Bwindi, Mgahinga, and Kibale because it makes the slopes of the mountains muddy.
Uganda has a big advantage when it comes to temperature. Even though it is on the equator, its high altitude makes it less hot, so the weather is always mild. The best time to go on an Uganda safari is the same as for other East African destinations: from June to October, which is the winter in the southern hemisphere.
