Excellent safari experience
The wildlife (especially the primates) is amazing and surprisingly accessible. The wilderness is very enjoyable. We've been to other parts of Africa (mostly southern Africa) and Uganda is refreshingly very unique and varied. The drives along the countryside is also a lot of fun. The people are very friendly and almost everyone speaks English, which made it convenient for us. We went in July and the weather was spectacular. We went mostly to the Western parts (Bwindi and QE NPs) and also stayed near Lake Victoria.

Uganda has an abundance of wildlife - from the gorillas in Bwindi to the chimpanzees in KIbale, and then big game in other national parks such as Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls. It's also called the Pearl of Africa for a reason - the scenery is surprising in it's beauty, many parts of the country are so green and lush and the south-western corner around Lake Mutanda has some of the most beautiful views I've ever seen. We stayed in a some camps that really gave us that wild 'bush' feeling, complete with hippos and hyenas outside the tent.

Amazing holiday with Go Explore safaris
This was a well-planned holiday and the service provided by Go Explore safaris and it was world class. Everything for the hotels locations to the standard of service whilst on safari we couldn’t have gone any better. I would recommend the service of Gorilla tour booking safaris to anybody thanks to the team and our driver Dickson who was so professional in taking us all over Uganda.

What an Amazing Beautiful and Friendly Country!
Uganda is an amazingly beautiful country! With nice accommodations, beautiful scenery and great variation. From the savannah landscapes of Elizabeth National Park, to the great lakes with and the jungle of the impenetrable forest of Bwindi.
The wildlife is great, with the Mountain Gorillas but with also many other different kind of species like Chimpanzees, Hippo's, Uganda cobs, Lions and even Leopards. Some more abundant then others of course.
Uganda does also have a very rich birdlife.
I expected lots of rain but even when we were there, in the rainy season, the number of days we had rain were very limited. We had great weather with a lot of nice and sunny days.
The people in Uganda have good English skills and are really very friendly.
Only the roads could use a big upgrade. Prepare to have some bumpy rides!
