Embark on an unparalleled wildlife adventure by planning a safari and gorilla trekking combo that seamlessly blends the captivating landscapes of Uganda and Rwanda. This extraordinary journey promises encounters with the highly endangered Mountain Gorillas, offering a hair-raising experience of a lifetime that will linger in your memories forever.
Set off on an immersive journey into the lush hills of Uganda and Rwanda, where the star attractions are the chimpanzees and the majestic Mountain Gorillas. Join forces with experienced primatologists to observe the playful chimpanzees in the pristine surroundings of Kibale Forest National Park in Uganda or Nyungwe Forest National Park in Rwanda. Continue your adventure by tracking the awe-inspiring Mountain Gorillas within the dense forests of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park or Mgahinga Gorilla National Parks in Uganda, as well as the renowned Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda.
In contrast to the vast savannah plains found in Kenya and Tanzania, Uganda’s compact yet rich and fertile landscape offers a unique blend of experiences. With the expansive savannah of Queen Elizabeth National Park juxtaposed against the impenetrable forests of Bwindi National Park, Uganda presents a diverse array of landscapes and wildlife.
Uganda stands out as a destination that provides authenticity, fewer crowds, and a remarkable variety of experiences. Despite being a newcomer to tourism compared to its East African counterparts, Uganda’s limited infrastructure adds to its charm. This emerging destination remains relatively affordable, allowing travelers to design bespoke itineraries that combine optimal accommodation and activities. Explore the best times to embark on your safari and gorilla tracking adventure, considering the nuances of each month to tailor your trip accordingly.
