The Many Reasons Why You Should Visit Uganda: An All in One Tourism Destination

Billy Ssali, Managing Director of Active African Vacations and Founder & CEO of Self Drive Uganda, gives an overview of the many tourist attractions the country as to offer.

“The client should choose Uganda because of its location, temperature, and environment. Uganda is a country of diversity in terms of its attractions. Because the equator passes through the country, the climate is quite favorable. In northern Uganda, Kidepo Valley National Park has beautiful landscapes. Murchison Falls, which was the former Kabalega National Park, is endowed with many different attractions. There are chimpanzees in the Kaniyo Pabidi. The beginning of the Albert Nile joins the White Nile. The wildlife is amazing. The Kibale Forest National Park is a destination for the chimpanzees. Uganda has the highest number of chimpanzees in East Africa. You can spend an entire day with chimpanzees in a habitat, do chimpanzee tracking, and you will have a guarantee of seeing the chimps, not just a tail or a shadow. Rwenzori Mountains National Park has a completely different horizon, like the mountains of the moon. Everyone who enjoys mountain climbing really enjoys this experience. Queen Elizabeth National Park offers many attractions such as the very rare tree climbing lions in the Ishasha sector, the Kazinga Channel which is about 42 km long and has the highest concentration of chimpanzees in Africa, and the environment is amazing. Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park is where Gorillas in the Mist was filmed. Uganda is naturally endowed with many different attractions. Uganda should be everyone’s first choice. We have an all in one destination with the Big 5 plus the primates, compared to our neighboring countries which are well known for wildlife but not primates. Primates are our closest cousins as you can see in the chimpanzees and mountain gorillas. You can see this in the juvenile and baby gorillas who are so similar to human babies. Lake Mburo National Park, the Ssese Islands, Lake Victoria, all make Uganda the perfect choice for clients over our neighboring countries”, says Billy Ssali.
