Africa · Eastern Africa
Pearl of Africa — fertile land, young population, growing tech scene in Kampala.
Uganda is an East African country of extraordinary natural richness, from the gorilla treks of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and the chimpanzees of Kibale to the source of the Nile at Jinja and the crater lakes of the west. The culture is diverse and warm, with over fifty indigenous languages and a tradition of welcome that is one of East Africa's finest. Those who love wildlife, rivers, and a country that offers more than safari will find it genuinely exceptional.
