Uganda Safaris

Situated in the heart of Africa and astride the Equator, Uganda is a lush and fertile country with spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife. Known as the Pearl of Africa, Uganda's beauty is only surpassed by its most famous attraction - the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park, home of the elusive Mountain Gorilla.

Amongst Uganda's attractions are the magnificent Murchison Falls where the 50 metre wide Nile River is forced through a narrow cleft in the rocks, plunging hundreds of feet into a narrow gorge and Lake Victoria, the second largest freshwater lake in the world.

Queen Elizabeth National Park is one of the treasures of Uganda and a mecca for bird-watchers. The Ruwenzoris, or the Mountains of the Moon, as the Greek astrologer Ptolemy first named them, have a legendary beauty, and are perhaps the most beautiful mountain range in the whole of Africa.

Lake Mburo National Park

Lake Mburo National Park

Lake Mburo National Park was only brought into being in 1982 but is the only one of Uganda's parks to contain an entire lake.

The park lies between Masaka and Mbarara in Uganda's south west. The park has the classic African landscape of savannah and acacia trees. The herds of impala here are vast and you will be astounded by their prowess at jumping.

The lake itself is home to hippo and crocodile and a great number of bird species. Bright bee-eaters, the stately, yet ugly, marabou stork and the splendid crowned crane may all be found in the park amongst many, many others.
