Uganda Holidays and Gorilla Safaris
Uganda is in East Africa and offers a contrasting feel to the rest of the African continent. It encompasses the best parts of the whole African continent through striking scenic masterpieces and enigmatic wildlife, including the illusive Mountain Gorilla.
Over the years Uganda is slowly stabilising and putting its tarnished cruel and violent history behind, focusing on creating a welcoming and diverse country with endless wildlife, scenic and cultural opportunities.
Uganda’s wildlife is unique, exciting and illusive, encompassing the unique African species including the Ugandan Kob, tree-climbing lions and the poacher-adapted elephants. It also has the highest concentration of primates on earth, including the marvelous Mountain Gorilla, a creature so amazing it brings travellers from all corners of the world and allows a true memorable experience.
The regions of Uganda offer stark contrasts from the beautiful Mountains of the Moon and the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in the west to the striking Mount Elgon and the picturesque Sipi Falls in the east. The southern regions are home to Uganda's greatest attraction, the great Virunga Mountains, where it is possible to track some of the remaining endangered Mountain Gorillas. Uganda is truly, in the words of Sir Winston Churchill, The Pearl of Africa.
