Why visit Uganda?

Uganda Safaris and Tours

There is no other country in Africa – like Uganda – the “Pearl of Africa”. In 1908, in his book My African Journey, Sir Winston Churchill wrote:

“For magnificence, for variety of form and colour, for profusion of brilliant life — bird, insect, reptile, beast — for vast scale — Uganda is truly “the Pearl of Africa”. The Kingdom of Uganda is a fairy tale. The scenery is different, the climate is different and most of all, the people are different from anything elsewhere to be seen in the whole range of Africa…”

In other Parks or reserves you even find the rare Tree Climbing Lions and White Rhinoceros. Uganda is home of over 1.000 species of birds and attracts many professional bird watchers every year. The glaciers of the Ruwenzori Mountains and their formation at Lake Mutanda in southwestern Uganda are also impressive and a paradise for Mountain climbers.

Visitors return to Uganda’s welcoming people and the temperate climate.

The 52 tribes and their different languages, culture and dances, all living peacefully next to each other, set the country apart.

You can get in touch with the native people and the real rural life in one of the many social and community projects (include link to supported projects side). Or follow the historical tracks of the great Explorers like Speke, Stanley or Livingstone and visit the Source of the Nile. Not to forget the many adventure sports opportunities like the 5 grade white water Rafting, Bungee Jumping, squad biking or horse riding along the River Nile. Let Uganda inspire you!
