East Africa offers a great opportunity to view a combination of forest and savannah wildlife. Top attractions include gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable or Mgahinga Gorilla National Parks, and chimp trekking in Kibale National Park and other forest locations. Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks offer wonderful savannah safaris with good wildlife viewing, with four of the Big Five present (no rhino), and lots of insights with full big 5 across East Africa




With its rich variety of forest, savannah and wetland habitats, Uganda is arguably Africa’s most diverse wildlife destination. There are jungles inhabited by gorillas and chimps, waterways alive with hippos and crocodiles, and open plains roamed by the iconic Big Five. Which means that here, in one compact safari circuit, wildlife-lovers can hope to encounter all the continent’s most alluring large mammals.
