What makes Uganda stand out as a safari destination?

Uganda is renowned for its incredible biodiversity and scenic variety—from misty tropical rainforests to expansive savannahs and shimmering lakes. It’s home to over half of the world’s mountain gorillas, particularly in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park

anda benefits from a tropical climate with two distinct dry periods—December to February and mid‑June to mid‑September—ideal for gorilla treks and safaris

Most visitors spend between 7 to 14 days exploring Uganda’s highlights, combining gorilla trekking and wildlife drives with cultural experiences and adventure activities

You will need a valid tourist visa, which can be obtained in advance from an Embassy or on arrival at Entebbe Airport—East African visas are also available for multi-country travel. The local currency is the Ugandan Shilling; while some hotels may accept US dollars, it’s wise to use reputable forex bureaux for currency exchange. Credit cards such as Visa and Mastercard may be accepted in major establishments, but always notify your bank beforehand
