​Uganda is known as the Switzerland of Africa, and rightly so, with its green mountains and rolling hills. Uganda is a fantastic destination to explore if you are looking for a traditional safari coupled with some of the most amazing wildlife experiences you can get….tracking chimpanzees and gorillas through the forests.

From the chimpanzees of Kibale Forest, the wildlife of Queen Elizabeth National Park, the tree climbing lions of Ishasha and the gorillas of Bwindi and Mgahinga National Parks – Uganda does have it all. Guests are split into groups of 8 before heading into the forests in search of some of the last remaining wild mountain gorillas. The gorillas have been habituated over years of study and protection and this allows tourists a chance to spend an hour with the family as they go about their daily lives. Spending an hour with a family of gorillas is truly one of the most amazing experiences you can have and is something you will remember for the rest of your life.

​Combine your Uganda Gorilla Safari with the gorillas of Rwanda for the ultimate Mountain Gorilla Safari.
