Uganda’s safari lodges usually anchor a primate-and-savannah circuit, combining Kibale chimp trekking, Queen Elizabeth/Ishasha wildlife and boat safaris, and Bwindi gorilla trekking for a varied forest-to-savannah experience.
Exceptional and intimate lodges, with premium service and highly personalised experiences.
Uganda is the only country where you can track mountain gorillas, trek with wild chimpanzees, and drive through Big Five savannah — all in a single trip. A gorilla permit costs $800, half the $1,500 charged in Rwanda, and Uganda Airlines now flies direct from London Gatwick three times a week in around 8 hours 40 minutes. I’ve sat with a silverback family in Bwindi’s dripping forest and watched a herd of Rothschild’s giraffe cross the Nile at Murchison Falls on the same trip — the range is extraordinary for a country most people associate only with gorillas. Five safari regions span ancient rainforest, volcanic peaks, vast savannah, and the source of the Nile. For milestone travellers, families with teenagers, and anyone who wants primates and plains game without two separate destinations, Uganda delivers more per pound than any other East African option.
