Uganda Gorilla Safaris, Gorilla Trekking/ Tracking, Nature Tours, And Cultural-Tourism in Uganda

Uganda gorilla safaris and tours involve two major gorilla safari activities namely; Gorilla trekking and Gorilla tracking. Gorilla trekking involves walking long distances and spending a number of hours in search of the gorillas whereas gorilla tracking comes along with short distances since it is done at the nearest known gorilla group, and that is by far the main difference between gorilla trekking and gorilla tracking safaris. Gorilla trekking/tracking in Uganda is carried out in Bwindi impenetrable forest national park as the leading gorilla safari destination in Uganda and at times, Mgahinga national park which borders with both Rwanda-on the south and DRC (Democratic Republic of Congo) to the west.
Uganda is one of the best safari destinations in Africa and the best safari destination for mountain gorilla safaris in Africa. Striding across the equator, Uganda has an extra ordinary variety of landscapes, sought after unique fauna and flora that make Uganda Safaris the best safari holidays to take in Africa. Dubbed “the pearl of Africa”, Uganda is located on the northern shores of Lake Victoria. It is bordered by Sudan to the north, Democratic republic of Congo to the west, Kenya in the east, Tanzania and Rwanda to the south.
