Before you choose
Clear starting points for planning. We confirm availability and current travel details when you enquire.
Is Uganda only for gorilla trekking?
No. Gorilla trekking is a major reason to visit, but Uganda also offers chimpanzee tracking, savannah game drives, boat safaris, birdlife and the Nile.
How early should I plan a gorilla safari?
Plan as early as practical because trekking permissions are limited for each date. We confirm current availability while preparing your itinerary.
Can Uganda and Rwanda be combined?
Yes. A cross-border itinerary can combine wildlife and forest experiences in both countries, subject to travel documents and current entry requirements.
How many days are useful for Uganda?
A focused forest visit can be short, but a week or more is better when combining gorillas with western Uganda’s parks, lakes and primate areas.
