Think About Visiting Uganda? Explore the Possibilities!

A safari in Uganda is often considered the trip of a lifetime by many. Uganda is a land of contrasts, offering a slice of everything that Africa has to offer, from the snow-capped Mountains of the Moon to the tranquil beauty of the Kazinga Channel, from the mighty force of the Murchison Falls to the stunning stillness of Lake Bunyonyi, high in the ‘Little Switzerland of Africa.’

This country will capture your heart with its diversity, from its rainforests to savannahs and from its mountains to lakesides. Uganda is the true heartbeat of Africa, basking in the sunshine on the equator and renowned for being peaceful, friendly, and full of life. Remember, Uganda is not just about Mountain Gorillas; there’s a whole world of experiences waiting to be discovered here.

Curious about what else Uganda has to offer? Discover our expertly curated list of the top 32 things to do and see in Uganda. From breathtaking wildlife encounters to cultural experiences, this list is your gateway to planning an unforgettable journey.

With Lifetime Experience Safaris, discover Uganda’s secrets — the famed Gorillas, elusive Chimpanzees, and its diverse wildlife. We’re committed to crafting journeys that transcend the ordinary, ensuring you and your companions leave with memories that will last forever.

Uganda, celebrated as Africa’s most biodiverse nation, has captured the imagination and accolades of many. Winston Churchill, profoundly moved by his 1907 visit, penned in his book, “My African Journey,” that “For magnificence, for variety of form and color, for the profusion of brilliant life — bird, insect, reptile, beast — for grandeur on such a vast scale, Uganda is truly the Pearl of Africa.”

He further praised, “The Kingdom of Uganda is like a fairy tale. The scenery, the climate, and, above all, its unique people set it apart from the rest of Africa. If there’s any advice I could impart, it would be to concentrate on Uganda.”

As you contemplate an African safari, heed the words of Churchill, who, after traversing numerous African terrains, urged all to “Concentrate on Uganda.”

This year, why not shake things up a bit and venture off the beaten path? Break away from the same old routine of visiting familiar places, where you’re so regular that the staff at the local drive-through knows you by name. Instead, set your sights on Africa. Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey to a land where warmth and hospitality are second nature. In the Pearl of Africa, you’ll be greeted with open arms by friendly locals who relish the chance to meet someone new like you. If this sparks your wanderlust, we’re here to help. As a leading safari agency, we’ll work with you to craft an unforgettable adventure. Get in touch today and start planning the journey of a lifetime.

Fantastic 14 Night Trip. Highly Recommend Lifetime Experience Safaris We are a couple in our late 60's and have recently returned from a 14 night customised trip to Uganda with Lifetime Experience Safaris, and were extremely happy with our tour. We contacted a few companies initially for quotes / ideas and Jesse Tom (the owner of Lifetime Experience) stood out from the other companies in terms of promptness of reply, a willingness to accommodate our wishes / plans, lots of good suggestions and cost. Over a period of a few months we had many emails back and forth until we were completely happy with the itinerary. We were not sure initially whether to hire a vehicle and drive ourselves or have a driver. But after researching on various forums we decided to have a driver. This was an excellent decision. The driving conditions (we had previously only driven in Zimbabwe) and the roads / navigation in Uganda were really challenging to say the least! Our driver was Gerald who was just brilliant! It can be daunting to think you are going to spend 14 days with a stranger, but Gerald turned out to be really great. He was excellent company (we learnt a lot about the country, way of life for Ugandans, politics etc,) made lots of stops at local cafes, restaurants etc we would never have stopped at on out own, was very thoughtful about making sure we had plenty of rest stops (at our age toilet considerations were important!) and was generally a good all round guy. We both had a few health issues (I picked up a cold / cough / chest infection on the flight) which he took care of - stopping off at pharmacies to get us medication. He definitely made the trip for us and enhanced our experience of Uganda - even managing to get us an easy group for the Gorilla trek so we only had to walk for about 30 minutes. The cost of the trip included everything - apart from drinks and tips - which was great. I have written a "Trip Report" and put it on the Tripadvisor Uganda Forum for those who are interested in out itinerary - but Jesse Tom will work with you to make your trip personal to you. We highly recommend this company.

Lifetime Experience Safaris I recently returned from a two-week tour of national parks with Lifetime Experience Safaris. My vacation was beyond expectations. Jesse Tom answered all my questions prior to travel and tailored the trip to include everything I wanted to see. Our guides George and Gerald were fantastic, sharing their knowledge of plants, animals, birds, geography, history and culture and making sure we were comfortable at all times. I'd recommend this tour company for any travel to Uganda.

The Trip of a lifetime with Lifetime Experiences! I’ve dreamed of seeing the Mountain Gorillas for ever and seeing the Chimpanzees, after hearing Jane Goodall’s chimpanzee scream three times. I was a little uneasy about going to Uganda with US State Department warnings, so I wrote to Jesse Tom to find out how they handle unpredictable situations. He reassured me that the tour would be modified as needed to ensure my safety. Additionally, our guide, Gerald told me his job was to keep me safe. So I had a 14-day tour with 2 days seeing chimpanzees and 2 days with gorillas, each day is unique seeing different families. It was the trip of a lifetime seeing leopards in trees; the intimacy of a gorilla family with the silverback, female with 3 month old baby, and juvenile male playing; hearing the chimpanzee chorus in the trees echoing around me; walking safari with white rhinos including eldest female with youngest 30 month old baby; walking with giraffes and zebras. It was an incredible experience which I will relive through photos and memories for a long time. I highly recommend Lifetime Experiences for your trip of a lifetime!

Lake Bunyonyi, Gorilla Tracking and Lake Mburo National Park I cannot recommend this company highly enough, Jesse responds to emails quickly and is very helpful, even when plans are changed. This is the second time we have used Lifetime Safaris. Their staff are skilled drivers (not a small consideration on the roads of Uganda), are friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. Abaas was a lovely guy who went above and beyond to ensure our short visit was perfect. Thank you Lifetime Safaris we would not hesitate to use you again.

Unforgettable Uganda We had a memorable experience with Lifetime Experience Safari. Thank you, Tom (Jesse-Thomas Kitanywa) and Sula (Guide) for being flexible and making this safari experience unforgettable. We started in Kampala and concluded in Kigali. Our trip includes Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Murchison Falls National Park, Kibale Forest Chimpanzee Tracking, Queen Elizabeth Park, Ishasha Sector, Gorilla Habituation Experience at Rushaga, Gorilla Trekking at Mgahinga and Golden MonkeyTraking at Mgahinga. Every aspect of the itinerary was well-planned with lodges with good food allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the natural surroundings and wildlife. Sula, I appreciate the efforts you took to ensure the safety and well-being of my family on those rough roads.

Wonderful safari trip (a "once in a lifetime" experience) We enjoyed the 12-day safari trip with our guide Gerald. The trip was very varied (game drives, walks, boat trips, etc.) and Gerald was a perfect companion. He showed us many animals that we would not have seen without him. Many thanks also for the fruit and local food that we were allowed to try. Everything worked out perfectly, many thanks also to Jesse Tom for the organisation. We are more than satisfied with the trip, would book it again and can highly recommend lifetime experience Safaris
