In this comprehensive guide, we’ll visit:
Entebbe - the gateway city to exploring the wild wonders of Uganda. Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary - an important conservation site where you can witness one of the Big 5. Murchison Falls National Park - Where the mighty Nile River bursts through a narrow gorge creating stunning falls and amazing wildlife. Queen Elizabeth National Park - Famous for its diverse ecosystems, boat cruises, and big game. Kibale National Park - A must-visit for its world-renowned chimpanzee tracking. Ishasha Sector - Home to the iconic tree-climbing lions. Bwindi Impenetrable Forest - Gorilla trekking through the dense forests is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Nkuringo - An idyllic area on the edge of Bwindi, offering breathtaking views and more gorilla encounters. Mgahinga Gorilla National Park - Known for both gorilla trekking and the rare golden monkey tracking.
Along the way, I share my personal experiences and tips, ensuring that your safari is not only memorable but also smooth and stress-free.

Oh wow, thank you so much Jeff for this amazing video. I'm proud to be a Ugandan. I'm your new subscriber✌️

Unfortunately i can't thank you enough for the way u packaged Uganda. Its an under-rated eco-tourist destination,but u bring to light what people out there are missing by not visiting Uganda. I have been to Uganda several times and wouldn't regret spending money. Have visited many countries but Uganda has it all in a single package. Their (organic)food and weather besides the hospitality of Ugandans is unmatched in Africa.

Uganda the pearl of Africa

[@LauraT-m4u]

My sister and I are going to Uganda for 6 days and then Rwanda for 4 in April. We have our itinerary mostly mapped out and have pre booked drivers, accommodation, park visas etc.but we will certainly go and visit markets, villages and local cafes. What’s best to do re money? Is a credit card required for the larger tourist places but also US dollars (small denominations), how about shillings and francs? Is it best (most appreciated) to tip in the local currency or dollars and what’s the amount to give drivers, etc. I’ve also heard that there’s an app to down load for local shops. Any advice would be most appreciated

[@MannetteVG]

Jeff have you consider hosting trips (safari groups) around Africa once or twice a year? So many people that know much less than you are doing it- you should definitely think about it.

[@Jeff_Hyer]

@@MannetteVG it’s absolutely something I’m looking to coordinate! It’s in the cards for 2025/2026 😄

[@MannetteVG]

@@Jeff_Hyer Thats awesome! cannot wait!
