Overview

The traditional safari bucketlist often includes destinations and experiences that are spread far across the African continent.

Elephants are almost always on the list as well as lions and other charismatic game we find in South Africa’s Kruger or Tanzania’s Serengeti. Water-based activities like canoeing or boating safaris are unforgettable like you can find in the Okavango or Zambezi Valley. And, cultural interactions are sometimes the most memorable like visiting the Himba in Namibia or the Masai in Kenya.

What’s fascinating is that Uganda can check all of these boxes while staying in one country and limiting the time and budget you spend moving around between countries. Uganda is truly the Pearl of Africa, and it seems to bring all of these elements together in a way that is efficient and diverse with a focus on value and comfort instead of high-end luxury.

This very special itinerary stretches clear across Uganda from the Kidepo Plains in the northeast corner to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in the southwest corner, from the Source of the Nile in the south to Murchison Falls in the north. Maybe the best part of the experience is having an expert private guide accompany you for the entire trip as you learn about this fascinating country and meet conservationists and community project leaders along the way.
