Uganda wildlife tour with option for two Gorilla Treks. Small Group
Allan from Wildlife Trails has visited Uganda and Rwanda multiple times and considered the diversity and overall wildlife experience in Uganda to be one of the best in Africa. So he is very excited to be returning to Uganda in January 2026 with a small group of six clients to enjoy the beauty of this stunning country. This Uganda wildlife tour includes the cost of one chimp and one gorilla trekking permit, and represents great value for two weeks in the country.
