Uganda Luxury Safaris

Uganda is where primates hold court. Bwindi shelters nearly half the world's remaining mountain gorillas, Kibale is the chimpanzee capital of Africa, and Murchison Falls forces the entire Nile through a seven-metre gap in the rock. Most people come for the gorillas and leave quietly stunned by everything else.
