Uganda
With its volcanic mountains, rolling green hills, mist covered rainforests, stunning waterfalls, access to the River Nile and the largest freshwater lake in Africa, Uganda is a country of diverse and spectacular landscapes. Often regarded as the go-to destination for primate lovers, Uganda is home to more than half the planet’s mountain gorillas. No trip to the country is complete without tracking these magnificent primates in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. While Uganda’s National Parks may not be as well-known as those of their African neighbours, they boast an abundance of wildlife including the Big Five. What’s more, the parks enjoy fewer visitors, enabling wildlife spotting in tranquil and peaceful surroundings.
