Uganda

Uganda

Lush landscapes, excellent wildlife and welcoming locals. An African adventure destination like no other.

Best time to visit

Best time to visit Uganda is all year-round. Due to its location by the equator, the temperatures are steadily around 25°C during daytime.

Money saving tips

My best tips are to self drive in a rental, eat local market food, travel during the low season and camp instead of staying at pricey safari lodges.

Suggested budget

The daily suggested budget for Uganda is $100-150 USD, assuming you hire a car, cook food and sleep at campsites. Lodges are pricey.

Favourite thing to do

While gorilla trekking was an amazing experience of a lifetime, I also really enjoyed doing a horse riding safari at Lake Mburo NP.
