Safari Experiences in Uganda (Things to Do)

Uganda safari holidays offer the worlds best destination to visit for both chimpanzee (Kibale Forest National Park) and gorilla trekking (Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park).

The endemic Uganda kob (a beautiful antelope), as well as lion, leopard, elephant and giraffe inhabit the savannahs while the great wetlands are home to large numbers of hippo and crocodile. Gorillas remain the greatest international attraction for safaris in Uganda, and there is nothing comparable to the thrill of a close encounter with these magnificent, peaceful apes, in their native environment.

Gorilla trekking is so popular that I suggest you book your safari 6 months to a year or so in advance if possible, as permits are limited. Relative to its size, Uganda is the richest country for birds in Africa, with over 1,000 species in an area the size of Great Britain. A wealth of hornbills, turacos, barbets, sunbirds, kingfishers, weavers and storks can easily be seen on your Uganda Safaris and Tours, as well as the bizarre and much sought-after shoebill. A real advantage of parks in Uganda is that they are not anywhere near as crowded as those in Kenya or Tanzania. You meet very few other vehicles on game drives — in some cases, you even have the parks almost to yourself!

Gorilla Trekking

With Uganda owning up to half the remaining population of mountain gorillas, it makes Uganda safari tour packages arguably the best option for a gorilla trekking safari. Gorilla trekking in Uganda starts with an initial briefing, the trek up to the gorillas takes you through the impenetrable forest of Bwindi. Ensuring your fitness is checked you will have to make your way through this dense forest to reach the home of the endangered mountain gorillas. A team of experienced guides leads the trek together with porters and Park Rangers who guide you through this rough terrain to navigate through the thick forest.

gorilla trekking Uganda SafarisInterestingly, these gorillas share 98% of their genetic composition with us humans. “Very relaxed, not disturbed and in their natural habitat. Only 8 people are allowed to see the gorillas in their natural habitat each day. Because their habitat is very fragile the number of visitors allowed into their habitat is strictly controlled.

Coming face-to-face with these gentle primates on your safari holidays Uganda is an experience one cannot forget. Contrary to their false reputation as the marauding apes, these are in fact very docile and easygoing animals often also known as the gentle giants. Mountain Gorilla Trekking is an experience only Uganda safaris and tours will offer among other few African safari destinations. You will not find these endangered mountain gorillas in any zoo as they do not survive in captivity.

Chimpanzee Tracking

Uganda  Safari Packages arguably offer the best primate Safaris in the entire world with Kibale Forest National Park being the best for chimpanzee trekking within the region. However, most travelers that visit chimps in Kibale National Park miss out on the most interesting social behavior of these primates due to limited time, if you can afford a luxury Uganda safari holiday, we recommend that you pay a habituation experience that offers you more time with the chimps.

chimpanzee tracking Uganda scaled

Chimpanzee tracking safaris in Uganda involve trekking through dense forests, listening for the distinctive calls of the chimpanzees, and following experienced guides to locate the primates. As visitors get closer to the chimpanzee groups, they can observe their social interactions, feeding habits, and playful antics. Chimpanzee tracking in Uganda takes place in other various locations, including Budongo Forest Reserve, and Kyambura Gorge in Queen Elizabeth National Park.  Similar to gorilla tracking, permits are required to track chimpanzees in Uganda, and it is advisable to secure them in advance to guarantee availability

Birding

Uganda is home to over 1,000 bird species, making it one of the most biodiverse countries for birdwatching in Africa. Key birding hotspots for Uganda safaris and tours include Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, Mabamba Swamp and Kibale National Park, among others.

birding safari in ugandaSome of the bird species recorded include the iconic shoebill stork, the colorful turacos, the striking African fish eagle, and a variety of sunbirds, weavers, kingfishers and endemic species such as the African green broadbill, the Rwenzori turaco, and the handsome francolin. The diversity of birdlife in Uganda provides endless opportunities for birding enthusiasts to add new species to their life lists.

Game Drives

One of the best ways to encounter wildlife on your safaris in Uganda Africa is by taking a game drive. Uganda is home to several national parks that are renowned for their abundant wildlife and scenic beauty, making them ideal destinations for game drives.

Game Drives Uganda Safari Tours

Queen Elizabeth National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, and Kidepo Valley National Park are just a few of the top parks where visitors can enjoy thrilling game drives. Game drives in Uganda’s Wildlife Parks are typically conducted in the early morning or late afternoon when wildlife is most active but with the option for full day game drives as well.

Boat Safaris

Uganda’s rivers and lakes offer a different perspective on the country’s natural beauty, allowing visitors to observe a wide variety of wildlife and enjoy breathtaking scenery from the comfort of a boat safari. Popular destinations for boat safaris in Uganda include the Kazinga Channel in Queen Elizabeth National Park, the Nile River in Murchison Falls National Park, and Lake Mburo in Lake Mburo National Park.

This experience offers an opportunity to observe a diverse array of animals along the water’s edge, including hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffaloes, and a variety of bird species. The tranquil setting of the boat allows for peaceful and uninterrupted wildlife viewing experiences.

Adventure Safaris

Uganda Safari Tours offer a  long list of activities for adventurers, the most popular adventure is white-water rafting on the iconic Nile River in Jinja. The turbulent rapids of the Nile provide an exhilarating rafting experience, with varying levels of difficulty to suit both beginners and experienced rafters. Uganda also offers rugged terrain and off-the-beaten-path adventure experiences in Jinja to include; Zip lining, bungee jumping and quad biking.

Hiking Trips

Uganda safari holidays can also encompass hiking and trekking, the country has a strong attraction among the dedicated trekking fraternity which mainly for the opportunity presented by Rwenzori mountains located in southwestern Uganda and Mount Elgon in the East. Both these mountains are gorgeous but are noted to have fewer climbers than Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Kenya.

9 Day Rwenzori Mountains Hike Central Circuit scaled

The Rwenzori Mountains also known as “mountains of the moon” offer one of the most challenging hikes in Africa and a chance for genuine climbing if you attempt one of the peaks. However, Mt. Elgon is a more affordable option. It’s also possible to walk up the three volcanoes at Mgahinga Gorilla National Park.

Top Safari Attractions in Uganda

Murchison Falls National Park

Named for the roaring mighty waterfalls that cough right through the middle of the tropical woodlands of the Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda safari Murchison falls is one of the most-visited safari opportunities in Uganda. The Park is actually the largest National park in Uganda with a whopping account of nearly 4,000 square kilometers between its borders. The biggest attraction is the point where Victoria Nile crashes through a tight-knit Gorge and over an escapement of more than 40 meters in height. However, travelers can also look forward to game viewing on a safari in Uganda Murchison Falls which is enhanced with a boat cruise to the bottom of the Murchison falls or to the delta point of Lake Albert, both cruises offer you a game viewing experience and a perfect bird watching encounter respectively on your booked Uganda tour. The Park is blessed with various wildlife species to include; the big five, over 450 species of birds, and chimpanzees at Budongo Forest Reserve.

Kibale Forest National Park

This 296-square-mile (766-km2) park consists of lowland tropical rain forest, tropical deciduous forest, marshes, grasslands and crater lakes, and is the best place in Uganda for chimpanzee trekking. Kibale Forest is considered by some experts to have the largest and most diverse population of primates in the world.
In addition to escorted walks, the park offers a Chimpanzee Experience. The program starts at 6:00 a.m., from the time the chimpanzees leave their nests until slightly before dark, which allows guests to observe the chimps de-nesting and nesting as well as their other daily activities. The Chimpanzee Experience needs to be booked well in advance. Kibale Forest National Park is home to 12 other species of primates including black-and-white colobus monkey, red colobus, gray-cheeked mangabey and red-tailed monkey. Some of the other wildlife species include blue duiker, Harvey’s red duiker, bushbuck, bushpig and over 100 species of butterflies. Over 300 species of birds have been recorded, and experienced local guides — with their knowledge of calls and behavior — are invaluable in this challenging bird watching environment. Green-breasted pitta, black bee-eater, white-headed woodhoopoe and the tiny chestnut wattle-eye are among the possible delights for keen observers. The park is located northeast of Queen Elizabeth National Park, 22 miles (35 km) south of Fort Portal.

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park

The major attraction of the 127-square-mile (330-km2) Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is the population of over 300 gorillas known to inhabit the park, that are in fact a different sub-species (yet to be named) from the mountain gorillas of Rwanda. Bwindi is a forest of enormous hardwood trees, giant ferns, tangled undergrowth and hanging vines — the quintessential equatorial jungle. The size and altitudinal range of montane and lowland forests at Bwindi support more species of trees, ferns, birds and butterflies than any other forest in East Africa. It is also the only one inhabited by both chimpanzees and gorillas. As of this writing, there are 5 groups that may be visited by up to 8 tourists per day that are accessed by accommodations in Buhoma in the northern part of the park, and 4 from the southern (Kisoro) side of the park. And as of this writing, the group makeups were as follows — but keep in mind that changes occur on a regular basis.

Mgahinga Gorilla National Park

Mgahinga Gorilla National Park is situated on the slopes of Mt. Muhabura and Mt. Gahinga in the southwestern corner of Uganda, bordering Rwanda and the D.R. Congo. A joint commission has been set up by Uganda, Rwanda and the Congo to protect the mountain gorilla in the Virunga Mountains where the borders of the three countries meet. One gorilla group has been habituated for tourism, however, as its natural range lies across political borders, gorilla viewing at Mgahinga National Park cannot be guaranteed by any means, and therefore the reserve is not recommended for international travelers with limited time. While gorilla trekking is the main activity in this 12-square-mile (34-km2) reserve, other mammals such as the rare golden monkey (a sub-species of the blue monkey), buffalo, black-fronted duiker, leopard, golden cat and serval may be encountered. Bird life is not prolific, however, gems such as the red-tufted malachite sunbird, white-starred robin and Ruwenzori turaco may be observed in this highland region.

Rwenzori Mountains National Park

Legendary snow-capped Rwenzori Mountains are presumed to be the Mountains of the moon as described in AD 350 by Ptolemy. Also considered Africa’s tallest mountain ranges, Mountain Rwenzori or mountains in western Uganda borders the Democratic Republic of the Congo with several of the peaks permanently covered by ice and glaciers all year long. The highest peaks in the range are Margherita (5109m), Alexandria (5083m), and Albert (5087m) all on Mt Stanley, Africas third highest mountain. The favored mountains of the Moon are a world-class hiking and mountaineering destination as you explore Uganda safari Holidays to southwestern Uganda.

The Rwenzori Mountains are Africa’s tallest mountain ranges exceeded in altitudes by mountain Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenya, this National Park is also called true heritage to the neighboring communities. What’s more, the park permits required for your Uganda Safari Holiday are less and half the price of those neighboring countries so you get more. Queen Elizabeth National Park the most popular game park is set against the backdrop of these mountains and anyone enjoying a Uganda Safari tour with game drives in this park would have a scenic view from afar.

Queen Elizabeth National Park

Another major landmark for your Uganda tour is the Queen Elizabeth National Park located in southwestern Uganda.  With its topography of abundant breathtaking patterned rolling hills with narrow valleys, the park derives its name from the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth the second.  At 1978 square kilometers the fertile equatorial area is Made up of tropical rain forests, lash Savanna Grasslands, and two lakes. The beauty to explore while on Uganda African Safari to the park is simply indescribable with extensive Savannah Forest, rivers, and Lakes, the park is one of the very few remaining wildlife sanctuaries in the world. Queen Elizabeth also consists of other major highlights such as the boat rides along the Kazinga channels and the tree-climbing lions. Comparing the two alternatives, chimpanzee trekking in Queen Elizabeth National Park is cheaper compared to Kibale since chimp permits in queen Elizabeth are relatively cheaper compared to Queen Elizabeth National Park.

Lake Mburo National Park

Lake Mburo National Park in western Uganda is a wildlife haven with about 300 species of birds and a range of wildlife to include; impalas, buffaloes, and zebras.
Despite being one of the smallest national parks in Uganda, the savanna grasses and rocky habitats terrains come with buffalo herds, zebras crossed by waterbucks and stocked with hyenas. Today much of the area is covered in young forestry which springs up the swampland that dominates along the shores of Lake Mburo. The Park is great for game viewing on a Uganda safari Holiday during the dry season when most of the wildlife congregate around the lake. Lake Mburo National Park is one of the most accessible going with easy access along the highway from Kampala the capital. It is an ideal destination for planning a Uganda safari tour involving; game viewing, sport fishing, boat rides, horseback riding, and hiking

Lake Bunyonyi

The beautiful views of Lake Bunyonyi located in the district of Kabale in southwest Uganda is also a major highlight of a Uganda Safari Holiday Package. The calm waters of the lake reflect the verdant hills around it. This picturesque Lake Bunyonyi is one of the famous tourist spots in Uganda and it is a perfect getaway for a relaxation experience while on a safari tour to Uganda.
Much of the shoreline around the lake and swaths of the larger of the 29 Islands have been converted to subsistence farming. While this has no doubt robbed the lake of the deep green beauty of Uganda’s natural vegetation the snaking course of the water’s edge and the rolling hills that overlook it are still undeniably stunning. Lake Bunyonyi is one of the safest lakes in Africa with no hippos or crocodiles and is a perfect place for a splash in the water. A number of budget and luxury accommodation options are available around Lake Bunyonyi for overnighting on your safari in Uganda and in the nearby Kabale town to enhance your Uganda Safaris . Whether you’re on your way to visit the mountain gorillas in the Bwindi Forest National Park or in Rwanda, Lake Bunyonyi is an ideal choice for a stopover.

Kidepo Valley National Park

Isolated from the Ugandan mainstream by the harsh plains to the north of Mount Elgon, Kidepo Valley National Park is Uganda’s second largest national park. Kidepo is one of Africa’s last great wilderness areas, a tract of rugged savannah dominated by Mt. Morungole and transected by the Kidepo and Narus Rivers. Perennial running water in the Narus River makes Kidepo an oasis in this semidesert. While the game viewing is excellent, it is the sense of supreme isolation that distinguishes this rare slice of wild Africa — as yet undiscovered by the mass safari market. Wildlife includes elephant, giraffe, buffalo, lion, cheetah, ostrich, Jackson’s hartebeest, waterbuck, zebra, Guenther’s dikdik, kudu, lesser kudu, eland, aardwolf, bat-eared fox and Patas monkeys. Occasionally African wild dogs are spotted near Kanantarok Hot Springs close to the border of Sudan.

Semliki Game Reserve

Formerly called the Toro Game Reserve, this 85-square-mile (220-km2) reserve of grassland, savannah, forest and wetland habitats is bordered by Lake Albert to the north and the Ruwenzori Mountains to the southwest. The tropical lowland forest conserved in this park is ecologically linked to the Congo basin and provides a very different Ugandan wildlife experience. The giant hardwood trees and tangled undergrowth of the forest are home to many fascinating mammals such as Africa’s smallest ungulate—the tiny pygmy antelope, which is hardly bigger than a hare. Chimpanzees in the area are becoming habituated and sightings are now quite good. Other primates including the gray-cheeked mangabey, red-tailed monkey and De Brazza’s monkey may also be seen. Other wildlife includes elephant, the Uganda Kob (the most common large mammal) and warthog as well as infrequently seen buffalo, leopard, lion, hyena, bushbuck, waterbuck, reedbuck, duiker and forest hog. The reserve is an absolute paradise for birdwatchers, with 35 of the 385 species occurring nowhere else in East Africa. Specials such as the chestnut owlet, white-crested hornbill, African piculet and fiery-breasted bushshrike attract enthusiastic observers from far and wide.

Entebbe

Another landmark to watch out for on a Uganda Safari Tours or Day Trips is Entebbe Town, this resort town is famous for all its beaches and wildlife. The Uganda wildlife center is here, and it provides information about different animals which include Lions crocodiles Eagles as well as snakes. Within the radius of Entebbe is Kalangala Island, a top-notch resort Island for beach relaxation, honeymoons which can be prepared with a visit to the chimpanzee of Ngamba Island of Lake Victoria.

Jinja

Jinja Town in Uganda is also known as East Africa’s Adventure city, while on your Uganda Safari Adventure, you will explore attractions such as Lake Victoria, the source of the Nile, Mighty Itanda Falls, and Mabira Forest in Jinja. Uganda holds the 2nd largest freshwater lake in Africa, lake Victoria, which is also the source of the mighty River Nile in Jinja as it begins at a 6000 km journey to the Mediterranean Sea. Other Uganda Safari attractions in Jinja include the stunningly beautiful Itanda Falls an ideal spot for white water rafting. Bungee jumping is another blood-pumping sport, this 44mm plunge into the source of the Nile is simply awesome jet boating and river surfing also take these here. While in Jinja on your safari in Uganda there is also a chance to visit Mabira Forest, nature’s 7th  heaven and true African tropical jungle home to many plants and animal species.

For those looking to get a taste of Uganda’s wildlife, a 3 to 5-day safari may suffice, focusing on key highlights such as the renowned Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for gorilla trekking or Queen Elizabeth National Park for a chance to spot the Big Five.

However, for the intrepid explorer wanting to delve deeper into Uganda’s diverse ecosystems, a 7 to 10-day safari allows for a more relaxed pace and the opportunity to visit multiple parks and reserves. This duration is ideal for those who wish to combine primate tracking with game drives, boat cruises, and cultural encounters.

For the ultimate Uganda safari experience, extending your stay to 14 days provides a comprehensive exploration of what the country has to offer. This length ensures ample time to traverse the varied landscapes, from the savannas of Murchison Falls National Park to the rainforests of Kibale National Park, without feeling rushed.

Generally, the length of your Uganda safari should align with your interests and the depth of exploration you desire.
