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 4
“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”
This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”
It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.

“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.
