Uganda is a unique place to visit with its numerous travel highlights for photographers, adventurers and birders. It is outstanding for wildlife adventures in lush rainforests to savannah reserves. There are approximately 1000 birds, climbing tree lions, several varieties of primates along with observing chimps, mountain gorillas and breathtaking scenery.

Best Safari experience I have had
I was in a safari in the Amazonas and India before but in Uganda I had the chance to see much more wonderful species of fauna , the organization and accommodation was superior and cheaper .

I liked the fact that noone knew what we were going to see and in the end, everybody resumed that we didn't miss anything!
Uganda is an amazing place to view wildlife. In 5 days, I saw everything - chimps, gorillas, lions (and cubs), hippos, hyena, water buffalo, antelope, elephants, and tons of birds. Everyone I met was incredibly friendly and I felt completely safe with my guides... It is an incredible value - not nearly as expensive as other trips I researched.
Uganda is an incredible place.. much better then any expectations..
Uganda has more than half of the worlds population of the endangered Mountain gorilla, diverse species of primates and other mammal species. The geographical regional variance and weather pattern simply confirms Uganda as The Pearl of Africa and makes it a must visit destination before one can decide to "kick the bucket".

How would you NOT go to Uganda?!
The great thing is that even with such high expectations we were not disappointed at all. What a country. So green and lush (thanks to 2 rain periods + rain inbetween), comfortable tempareture (thanks to a high altitude - most of the country sits 1000 meters above sea level), and a very varied nature and scenery (from flat savannah to rain forest to roaring mountains).
I have never been to a safari before so I must admit I don't know how many animals you will usually see, but let's just say it was not an unusual problem to try to photo an elephant - with the giraffe popping in an "ruining" the shot!
I also liked that there

is no sense of mass tourism and there are rather few tourists there. Very nice wibe.(On a general note, and not something we actually noticed in any way, being a woman and a man, Uganda has horrendous views - and laws - on homosexuality).

Got to see the big game Lions, Baffaloes, Uganda Kob, Elephants etc. Birding was limited other than Flamingo spotting at lake Katwe. Over all a great experience.
