A wonderful destination in green Africa
Uganda has everything you can wish for a wonderful trip that will stay with you forever! Incredibly green landscapes, the nicest, most welcoming people, amazing wildlife. Of course, mountain gorillas, eild chimps and so much more! Plus some of the best gastronomy in Africa. A place I totally recommend :)

Best gorilla trekking.
I was in Entebbe in Derain Eco Resort right on the banks of the victoria lake.
Scenery was unreal. Beautiful views of the lake and surroundings.
The Victoria Mall was nearby, walkable where we had our shopping and food.
People are very nice and eager to help . Very contend people must add.
Overall it was a beautiful trip.

Uganda met all our expectations
We enjoyed an eight day safari, travelling in a land cruiser with a guide. We visited three national parks- Muchison Falls, chimpanzees, Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi. All great and very different. Our Kajie guide was great- lots of knowledge and skills. So many animals and birds. Elephants were amazing and so many giraffes! Orini antelope a delight. Saw Lions and a leopard. The gorillas were everything we hoped for. Skilled guide and trackers got us among them.
Chimpanzees were there but a downpour( unusual in July) made viewing a challenge. All the lodges we stayed in were lovely. Comfortable rooms, great meals and friendly attentive staff. The only downside was long days on the road but this gave us the opportunity to see how the Ugandan people live their lives.

Staying in Southwestern Uganda amongst the lush green terraced hills was tranquil and breathtaking!
We flew from Entebbe to Southwestern Uganda and were amazed to land amidst the green terraced hills, with every spare inch planted in horticulture. Driving thru the villages gave us a great chance to witness the locals going about their days. We stayed at Burunga Gorilla Lodge and felt like we were nestled right in the middle of the jungle, with every luxury we could wish for. The Gorilla trek was worth every cent! Incredible how close we were able to visit with such magnificent creatures.
Lake Bunyoni is a tranquil and serene spot nearby that we highly recommend for a couple of days rest. If you're in the region, visit Little Angels School and Orphanage. The children are delightful with their friendliness, infectious grins and heartwarming curiosity. Spending a morning there was one of the best things we did during our five weeks in Africa!!

Amazing country, the real pearl of Africa
Amazing country, people very kind and helpfull, the wildlife is Beautifull and some experiences can cut your breathe. It is not a famous destination (all our families and friends didn’t know about what you can see and live in Uganda) but it is awesome. We went with Ecovic Tours and Travel and had the best travel ever

Not expected but so much nicer then I thought. Recommend everyone to go to visit the country
The rafting was fantastic, and Kidepo National Park was absolutely breathtaking. Murchison Falls National Park was another highlight, especially the spectacular waterfalls and the boat trip, where we saw hippos and crocodiles up close.
Of course, the chimpanzee trekking was unforgettable, but the absolute highlight of the trip was seeing the mountain gorillas. We were lucky enough to see several silverbacks, and it was an experience we'll never forget.
We also loved exploring the national park in the south, where we walked among giraffes, enjoyed the beautiful lake, and went canoeing. Queen Elizabeth National Park was another incredible stop, offering amazing wildlife and unforgettable scenery.
The food throughout the trip was amazing, with a great variety of

Incredible destination to see the mountain gorillas
Incredible trip to Bwindi NP, to see the mountain gorillas. Lovely lodges with stunning scenic views. Unbelievable experience to spend time with the mountain gorillas. Great work of the trackers and rangers who protect these wild and untouched places!

Great trip in early May
I planned my trip using Safari Bookings and chose Semu Gorilla Safaris and Tours. They were excellent. Be sure to check out what wildlife you would like to see as each National Park is different.

Uganda is truly the pearl of Africa
Named by Winston Churchill himself, Uganda more than earns its legendary nickname. Tucked in the heart of East Africa, it is one of the continent's most rewarding and diverse travel destinations — compact enough to explore thoroughly, yet rich enough to fill a lifetime of adventures. I witnessed this during my Fam trip when I had an Idea of starting a tour and travel company, we visited different destinations like Bwindi for Gorilla trekking, Kibale for chimpanzee trekking,hiked Rwenzori mountains, Murchison falls national park among others, all the Uganda'' people are welcoming from different cultures
