Toro-Semliki Wildlife Reserve Best Time To Visit
Philip is the author of the Bradt guidebook to Uganda.
The Dry season is the best time for a trip to Toro-Semliki Wildlife Reserve. The two Dry seasons are from December to February and from June to July. During the Wet season months (March to May and August to November) the roads become almost impassable and wildlife-viewing drives are very limited.
