Uganda Safari Guide
Uganda covers 241,038 square kilometres and is home to more than half the world's remaining mountain gorillas (approximately 459 in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest alone), ten national parks, and the source of the White Nile at Jinja. Often called 'The Pearl of Africa' — a phrase attributed to Winston Churchill — Uganda spans from snow-capped Rwenzori Mountains (5,109 m, 'Mountains of the Moon') to the vast savannahs of Kidepo Valley. The country hosts over 1,090 bird species, making it the top birding destination in Africa by species-per-area.
