Overview
This 9-day itinerary covers Uganda's core wildlife experiences in one well-paced trip: gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, savanna game drives in Queen Elizabeth National Park, and chimpanzee tracking in Kibale Forest — three genuinely different wildlife experiences within a single country.
Uganda's safari style is noticeably different from Tanzania's open-plains game drives — expect lush, hilly, forested terrain, with a stronger focus on primates alongside classic savanna species like lion and elephant in Queen Elizabeth's more open sections.
Given gorilla permits are limited and book up well ahead of travel, this itinerary works best planned with a reasonable lead time.
See our Uganda safari overview, or contact us to check gorilla permit availability for your dates.
