Uganda: A Wildlife Wonderland – Big Five, Primates & Unique Safari Experiences

Uganda has all of Africa’s Big Five animals: lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo. It also has many other species including hippo, a wide variety of antelope, crocodile, wart hog, giraffe, jackal, primate, aardvark, pangolin and honey badger as well as around 24 primates, including chimps and the iconic mountain gorillas. These can be viewed by game drive, night game drive, nature walk, boat cruise, mountain bike, horseback, balloon ride, from hides and viewing towers and in some locations, from your room!

There are also a range of wildlife research and conservation experiences, where you can track wildlife alongside research teams and learn about the work they do or visit conservation projects and discover how local communities conserve the environment and wildlife.
