LUXURY SAFARIS UGANDA

THE PEARL OF AFRICA

Uganda is rightly known as “The Pearl of Africa” with its unspoiled rainforest, roaring Murchison’s Falls and abundant wildlife. But very little rivals the experience of tracking mountain gorillas through the verdant foliage of the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, one of its last remaining refuges.

Be prepared for some tough walking through one of Africa’s oldest jungles, but the reward of getting to within touching distance of these majestic creatures, who share some 97.7% of our DNA, is incomparable. And it’s not just primates that make a home amidst Bwindi’s jungle-shrouded hills. Keep your eyes peeled for forests elephants, bushbuck and some of the most colourful butterflies and birds on earth.

Uganda | Murchison Falls | The Ultimate Travel Company

Our Uganda specialists can help you to experience the full biodiversity of this magnificent East African country. Ask us to design your tailor-made holiday and you could find yourself making the acquaintance of playful chimpanzees in Queen Elizabeth National Park, photographing rare tree-climbing lions in Ishasha or spotting bat-eared foxes in the remote but beautiful Kidepo National Park. Uganda’s crater lakes and watering holes, meanwhile, attract large numbers of hippo, crocodile and flamingo.

And that’s without even mentioning the enchanting Kibale Forest – home to no less than 13 different species of primate including chimpanzees, blue monkeys, L’Hoest’s monkeys and the very rare red colobus.

A tailor-made holiday to Uganda is one you’ll remember forever.

Testimonial 5
“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”
Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!
Testimonial 6
“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”
Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, The Ultimate Travel Company stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.
