Undiscovered Uganda: Birds, Culture, and Wildlife

This small landlocked country in East Africa has the quintessential combination of attributes that creates an unrivaled birding and wildlife experience. Uganda has a incredible concentration of birds (>1,080 species) and is one of the only places on the planet to see Chimpanzees and Mountain Gorillas in the wild. It’s got the megastar avian attraction, the Shoebill, along with a plethora of iconic large mammals. Leopards, lions, hippos, giraffes, zebras, Uganda Kob, and a host of other beasties make this country a first-rate safari destination. From the Mabamba Swamp and five different national parks, you’ll experience breathtaking landscapes from the snowcapped Rwenzori Mountains, the Nile River thundering through Murchison Falls, wide open savannas, the impenetrable rain forest at Bwindi, and Africa’s largest freshwater lake, Lake Victoria. The highlight of any trip to Uganda may be the Ugandas themselves. Everywhere you go, you’re greeted with smiles, waves, and warm hospitality. There’s good reason Uganda is known as the “Pearl of Africa” — it has quickly become a top world birding destination!
