Uganda is a central east African country with its southerly region crossed by the equator. It is a land with many rivers and lakes either within, or forming, its borders. African landscapes ranging from forest to savannah and snow-capped mountains, numerous ethnic tribes and a tropical climate await discovery. Trekking in "The Mountains of the Moon" (the Rwenzon Mountain Range) along the Great Rift Valley, gorilla tracking in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, steamer trips to the Lake Victoria Ssese Islands and visits to the sacred burial places of departed kings, are sure to make lasting impressions. National parks scattered throughout the country are ideal for encounters with African wildlife. Elephants, hippo's, lions, buck of varying description, crocodiles, giraffes and not to forget, half of Africa's birdlife species, and many other interesting animals inhabit the lands. So if you're answering to the call of the wild, an adventure awaits you.
