Rivers, lakes, waterfalls, mountain ranges and the cultures and traditions of what many regard as the friendliest people on the continent…

Uganda is a beautiful country featuring a variety of eco-systems with the Equator and Rift Valley running through it… No wonder Winston Churchill referred to it as ‘The Pearl of Africa’.

Highlights of a tour to Uganda can include a visit the Bwindi National Park where you will go in search of the last remaining mountain gorillas in Africa. This foot trek is an experience you will never forget and coming up close and personal with a family of gorillas is an unforgettable experience.

The Queen Elizabeth National Park is recognized as being one of the most beautiful in Africa. A visit to this park can include a boat cruise on the Kazinga Channel and wonderful game viewing opportunities. Hiking in the Kyambura Gorge in search of chimpanzees is an amazing experience. Visit Jinja, the source of the Nile from where you can choose an optional 2-day river rafting trip and negotiate the white water rapids of Africa’s longest river. Alternatively, you can opt for a more relaxing cruise down the river.

Uganda can be visited as part of a scheduled group tour or we can tailor make a private tour package according to your needs.

Experience the wide-open plains of Africa in the Serengeti and discover the eco-system of this African Eden. Marvel at the annual migration of more than one million wildebeest and zebra as they stream across the Serengeti plains – an unbelievable sight. This tour offers a self-drive option in a hired four-wheel drive vehicle or one that is driver-guide accompanied.

The itinerary follows in the footsteps of Livingstone and the Leaky’s, details colonial influences and meets the proud Masai and, dependent on the time of year, also includes a glimpse of the annual migration.

Highlights of the tour include visits to the Ngorongoro Crater – home to about 30 000 animals, the Serengeti National Park that covers an area of about 30 000 km’s, cultural experiences and, time permitting, canoeing on Lake Victoria.

Some days can also be spent on the island of Zanzibar where you visit Stone Town, enjoy a dhow cruise and spend some time relaxing at a coastal resort.

The tour commences on arrival in Arusha and ends at the airport on departure from Zanzibar. You can join a scheduled group tour or allow us to tailor make a programme for you.
