Discover the iconic destinations of Uganda
Uganda has been hailed as the Pearl of Africa by Winston Churchill in his book My African Journey, published in 1908. A century later, this country epitomizes Africa as we romantically envision it, encapsulating the wonders of sub-Saharan Africa in a relatively small territory.
Its pristine and breathtaking landscapes, unique biodiversity, the wildlife of its National Parks, and the opportunity to come face-to-face with gorillas, chimpanzees, and rhinoceroses from just a few meters away are just some of the aspects that make this country truly special.
Where the jungles of West Africa meet the East, you can find everything from the highest mountain range in Africa, the Rwenzori Mountains of the Moon, to the Nile River where you can go rafting. Not to mention the beaches reminiscent of tropical paradises that line the shores of the largest lake on the continent, Lake Victoria.
A journey suited for all nature and local traditions enthusiasts in a country known for the kindness and warmth of its people.
