Uganda & Rwanda Holidays
World famous for the ecotourism success story of the endangered Mountain Gorillas, these neighbours also offer a chance to track chimpanzees and golden monkeys, climb volcanoes, interact with local communities, embark on a traditional safari, and soak up some of Africa’s most glorious panoramas and lush landscapes.

Top Uganda & Rwanda Experiences

Gorilla Tracking
Quite simply our favourite wildlife experience, coming face to face with a family of endangered Mountain Gorillas is an unforgettable, heart-in-mouth, life-affirming event. Permit numbers are strictly limited and sell out up to a year in advance however, so make sure you plan way in advance.

Tree-climbing Lions
If you’d like to see something truly different on your safari, Ishasha is one of only two places in Africa where you can witness lions climbing (and lounging in) trees. Conveniently located on the long drive between Uganda’s Chimpanzee and Gorilla tracking regions, it’s a must see detour.

In search of Chimpanzees
Whilst gorillas may be the headline act, tracking a group of the more agile and elusive Chimpanzees is an equally exhilarating experience (if you are lucky enough to find them). Kyambura Gorge and Kibale are the prime spots in Uganda, along with tiny Nyungwe NP in Rwanda. Want to ensure your holiday is responsible?
