Deep within Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, one of Africa’s rarest and most humbling wildlife encounters awaits — tracking endangered mountain gorillas. Trek through ancient rainforest cloaked in mist, alive with birdsong and rustling leaves, until you come face-to-face with these gentle giants. Watching a silverback lounge or playful youngsters tumble is a soul-stirring, once-in-a-lifetime experience in one of the planet’s most biodiverse and enchanting corners.
Where the mighty Nile bursts through a narrow gorge and crashes 140 feet into a frothing pool below, Murchison Falls delivers drama and beauty in equal measure. Uganda’s largest national park is a haven of rolling savannas, river cruises, and classic safari sightings — from lions to hippos and shoebill storks. Whether marveling at the thunderous falls or drifting past basking crocodiles, it’s East Africa’s hidden, untamed treasure.
Uganda’s Queen Elizabeth National Park is a landscape of volcanic craters, shimmering lakes, and lion-stalked plains. Cruise the Kazinga Channel for hippos and elephants or seek out tree-climbing lions in Ishasha. Nearby Kibale National Park is Africa’s primate capital, home to thirteen species including playful chimpanzees. Trek through tropical forest trails, encounter troops of colobus monkeys, and experience the lively, untamed soul of Uganda’s wild frontier.
Uganda offers the chance to track gorillas and chimps in lush forests, explore wildlife-rich Queen Elizabeth National Park, and take in the dramatic sights of Murchison Falls.
