Uganda Safaris, Uganda Adventure Travel, Uganda Holidays

Uganda, in the heart of East Africa, is full of the wonders of nature. With landscapes that range from snow capped peaks through broad savannah, rainforests to arid semi-desert, as well as wetlands of international importance, Uganda is one of the BEST countries to visit for safaris.

Located on the western side of the Great Rift Valley, Uganda benefits from Flora and Fauna species of both East and West Africa in addition to having a wide variety of indigenous species. In western Uganda, the mountain ranges of the Rwenzoris and Virungas extend into the neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo, formerly Zaire. On the eastern border lies Mount Elgon, an ancient, extinct volcano.

Some Tour and Travel intineraries that cover this beautiful East Africa country includes: -

• Wildlife Safaris in Uganda

A third of Uganda is covered by water.  The many lakes and rivers include Lake Victoria, the largest lake in Africa, and the River Nile from its legendary source.  In contrast, northern Uganda is arid, giving rise to special types of Flora and Fauna not found elsewhere.

The wildlife to be seen in Uganda is sensational.  Our eco-friendly tourist industry and on-going conservation projects have ensured constantly increasing animal populations.  Ornithologists come from around the world to view the more than 3000 species of Birds.  Anglers too can enjoy an abundance of fish in our many waters including the giant Nile Perch and the fighting Tiger Fish.
