The Splendor of Uganda
Winston Churchill famously called Uganda the “Pearl of Africa” for its breathtaking beauty, vibrant diversity, and abundance of life—birds, insects, reptiles, and mammals—set against landscapes of unparalleled scale. We couldn’t agree more. Uganda’s charm lies in its extraordinary variety, from dense rainforests and shimmering lakes to rugged mountains and sweeping savannas, each vying for your admiration. While it may host fewer animals than Kenya or Tanzania, a Ugandan safari captivates with lifelong memories. Here, you can encounter not just the Big Five—elephants, lions, rhinos, leopards, and buffalo—but also the remarkable Big Seven, including mountain gorillas and chimpanzees. Come experience it for yourself.
