January 26, 2024Immerse Yourself on a Uganda Safari in February – Gorilla and Chimpanzee Trekking Adventures
Embarking on a Uganda safari in February offers a unique and enriching experience, with the dry season still prevailing. While maintaining its dry characteristics, February witnesses a decline in tourist numbers, leading to adjustments in hotel prices and service availability. This makes it an opportune time for those seeking a more intimate and tranquil exploration of Uganda’s wonders, including bird watching, Gorilla tracking, boat safaris, and exceptional game viewing.
As the dry season progresses towards its end, the diminishing vegetation creates a landscape where wildlife congregates around the remaining waterholes, making it easier for visitors to spot and appreciate the rich biodiversity. Whether exploring the national parks in the south or the north of Uganda, February presents a window of opportunity. However, it’s essential to note that the weather can be particularly hot and dusty during this period.
