The Pearl of Africa

Trekking and Hiking

Few countries in Africa can combine trekking through jungle thickets, where light bounces off the dense shrubbery illuminating your path in a haze of green, with mountaineering to snow-capped peaks where icicles hang above the clouds and wildlife walks across savannah grasslands that stretch for miles but East Africa can.

The short answer is you can find fantastic trekking routes of various difficulties almost everywhere in Uganda, certainly at all the most popular destinations.

We’ve broken down your options as follows:

  1. Gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda
  2. Chimpanzee trekking in Uganda and Rwanda
  3. Rwenzori Mountains
  4. Light forest walks
  5. Kidepo Valley & The Ik Trek

Cultural Tours

Tourism is travel for pleasure or business; also the theory and practice of touring, the business of attracting, accommodating, and entertaining tourists, and the business of operating tours. Tourism may be international, or within the traveller’s country. The World Tourism Organization defines tourism more generally, in terms which go “beyond the common perception of tourism as being limited to holiday activity only”, as people “traveling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes”.

Fresh water bodies

Considered one of the best one day white water trips in the world, no safari to Uganda would be complete without truly experiencing the Nile from its source.

While most people come to Uganda for the chance to track gorillas and chimps, one other activity often ends up being a surprise highlight: white water rafting on the River Nile. Even first-time rafters report that spending a half or full day paddling and plunging down the river, crashing through deep rapids or gliding over silky green sections of calm water, is exhilarating. A riverside barbecue half way through or at the end rounds off the experience, and in fact the whole experience of rafting rounds out a trip to Uganda, too, complementing the awesomeness of hanging out with gorillas with the adrenaline of plunging down the longest river in the world.
