Frequently Asked Questions

Everything travellers ask us before booking a Uganda safari.

If you have limited time, start with the 3-Day Silverback Adventure or the 5-Day Mountain Gorilla Giants. If you want to combine primates and big game, The Great Canopy (10 days) is a strong middle option. For the complete East African primate experience across two countries, choose the 13-Day Gorilla & Mountain Crest Safari. For the most complete single-country grand tour with Luxury or Mid-range options, choose the 14-Day Uganda Emerald Dominion Safari.

All of our itineraries include your gorilla trekking permit in the package price. Permits are limited and allocated per date, so we recommend booking as early as possible, especially for peak season (Juneโ€“September and Decemberโ€“February).

Uganda can be visited year-round. The driest months (Juneโ€“September and Decemberโ€“February) offer the easiest trekking conditions, while the wetter months bring lush scenery and fewer crowds.

A moderate level of fitness is recommended for gorilla and chimpanzee trekking, which can involve 2โ€“6 hours on uneven forest terrain. Porters are available to carry bags and provide support on the trail.

A Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is required for entry into Uganda and Rwanda. Malaria prophylaxis is also strongly recommended. Consult a travel health clinic at least 6 weeks before departure.

Across every itinerary that offers both tiers, the route, guide, permits and activities are identical โ€” only the standard of accommodation differs, so you can choose based on budget and comfort preference.

Uganda is a well-established and welcoming safari destination. All our safaris are fully guided from arrival to departure, with 24-hour ground support throughout your trip.

Yes โ€” every itinerary above can be shortened, extended, or combined with Rwanda add-ons like Golden Monkey trekking or Volcanoes National Park. Get in touch and we’ll tailor a plan around your dates and interests.
