Uganda Tours in January 2027

There's only so much you can control on a safari trip. You can't control what animals you'll see, the weather, etc. But G-Adventures staff goes above and beyond to make sure those things that can be controlled (ie. contingency planning, communication, scheduling, bringing the vibes etc.) is done to maximize the enjoyment of your experience. Having experienced, knowledgeable and personable guides made sure we enjoyed our time while nature and luck handled the rest. 10/10

Best experience of travel I have ever had. Gorillas just WOW. Chimps were amazing and we saw our first one in 5 minutes. Queen Elisabeth park gave us not 1 but 2 sets of tree climbing lions!! And we spotted a Leopard. Lots of other fabulous game that was not so expected from Uganda. Friendly people everywhere.

This was a great holiday and we fell in love with Uganda during the trip. Although most people booking this trip will probably expect the gorillas to be the highlight, we found the chimpanzees' more energetic behaviour even more captivating, though having a silverback plus females with infants clinging beneath almost brush past us was the highlight of the trip. We saw a leopard resting very close to a track in Queen Elizabeth National Park, saw a tree-climbing lion in Ishasha and had a great boat trip on the Kazinga Channel.

Whilst the focus of this trip was chimps and gorillas, Uganda rewarded us with a wide variety of mammals and bird life and in contrasting landscapes; forests, savannahs and volcanic craters.
