Uganda Safari Full Guide to Tanzania Tours by Africa Natural Tours

Africa Natural Tours organizes safari packages across East Africa, including well-coordinated trips that combine both Uganda and Tanzania. Uganda offers a quieter, greener landscape with many opportunities for forest-based activities such as gorilla trekking, chimpanzee tracking, and birdwatching. This makes it a great addition to a Tanzanian safari focused on wide savannahs and large herds. Travelers can start their journey in either country and cross borders by road or flight, depending on their itinerary. With support from our team, guests can enjoy both destinations without the stress of complicated planning or logistics.

Top Safari Destinations in Uganda, Africa

Uganda is home to a variety of national parks and reserves, each offering something unique. Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park are top choices for gorilla trekking, where visitors hike through misty rainforests to observe mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. Queen Elizabeth National Park is known for its mix of savannah and wetlands, tree-climbing lions, and boat cruises along the Kazinga Channel. Murchison Falls National Park features dramatic waterfalls, boat safaris on the Nile, and sightings of giraffes, elephants, and crocodiles. Other beautiful parks include Kibale Forest National Park (for chimpanzee tracking) and Kidepo Valley National Park, which is remote, wild, and filled with scenic views and large herds of animals.

Discover Wildlife Safaris in Uganda

Wildlife safaris in Uganda combine traditional game drives with forest and river experiences. While not as famous as Kenya or Tanzania for massive herds, Uganda offers more intimate and diverse wildlife encounters. Visitors can see lions, leopards, hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffalos, and many species of antelope. In the forests, there are opportunities to track primates such as chimpanzees, golden monkeys, and the famous mountain gorillas. Uganda is also home to over 1,000 bird species, making it one of the best birding destinations in Africa. Whether you’re on a boat cruise, in a 4x4 vehicle, or walking with a guide, Uganda’s rich ecosystems provide many ways to connect with nature.

The Best Time to Visit Uganda

Uganda can be visited all year, but some months are better depending on your travel interests. The dry seasons (December to February and June to August) are ideal for gorilla trekking and game viewing. Trails are drier and animals are more active during these times. However, the rainy seasons (March to May and September to November) bring out the beauty of Uganda’s landscapes, with lush greenery and excellent birdwatching. While some roads and trails may become muddy, the rains are usually brief and followed by sunshine. Visitors during this time may also benefit from fewer crowds and lower prices. Each season offers something unique, and Uganda’s moderate climate makes it suitable for travel year-round.
