Places to visit

Explore this rugged wilderness, trekking through the dense unspoiled jungle of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in search of mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. In Kibale Forest National Park you’ll find forest paths that offer a fantastic opportunity to spot chimpanzee, L’Hoest’s monkey, red colobus and black-and-white colobus, amongst many other primates. For a traditional safari visit Queen Elizabeth National Park to admire herds of elephant enjoying the lush vegetation and hippo wading in the Kazinga Channel. Or marvel at the natural wonder of Murchison Falls National park where the mighty force of the Nile is pushed through a narrow gap creating awe-worthy mist.
