EXPLORE UGANDA
Winston Churchill called Uganda “the Pearl of Africa” because of its beauty, colour and abundance of wildlife. Uganda is a land of astonishing diversity and one of the last refuges of the endangered mountain gorilla. It also is the home of the highest number of primate species, some of the richest birding in Africa (over a 1,000 species), the highest mountain range in Africa, the Rwenzori Mountains as well as plains of game and big cats.
We offer:
Group safaris - an outstanding opportunity to experience the best of Uganda, including tracking chimpanzees in Kibale Forest (best place in Africa to track chimps), visit Queen Elizabeth National Park for game viewing and tracking gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
Private tailor-made safaris according to your personal preferences.
Add-on safaris to the Mabamba Swamps to see the elusive Shoebill Storks
Visits to the fascinating Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary
