Why you should tour Uganda in 2019
New year’s always start with new resolutions and for the passionate travelers, something new should always be in the travel bucket list, so here is why you should tour Uganda in 2019 either for the first time or for a new reason.
Known as the pearl of Africa and so for the beauty appreciated beyond borders, Uganda is blessed with diversity.
The country is blessed with unique natural art ranging from the soaring mountains through the terraced hill tops to the pristine wilderness plains. Straddling the equator line within East Africa, here a tourist has a two-hemisphere safari experience within a single tour destination.
Uganda is Africa’s most hospitable nation, though being a multi-lingual nation with 56 different languages spoken! In Uganda are different ethnic groups that reside in harmony inclusive of which are the Bantu, Nilotics and Nilo Hamites with the smallest tribal groups being the Batwa and IK (one of Africa’s smallest ethnic groups). The diversity in cultures within the tribal groups offers more than expected opportunities to experience different cultures on your safari in Uganda.
Uganda is entirely beautified by a whole 1,060 confirmed bird species! with 24 Albertine rift endemics and 1 country endemic- the Fox’s weaver. The singing and whistling beautiful feathered birds are savanna, forest, water, intra-Afro migrant and Euro-Asian migrant(palearctic) species. Birds of Uganda form 50% of Africa’s bird species and 11% of the bird species in the world making Uganda birding safaris a prime activity for birders.
The largest lake in Uganda-Lake Victoria is the world’s largest continental lake. Lake Victoria is still the second world’s largest fresh water lake coming after Lake Superior. This is the biggest point with numerous beaches for relaxation, recreation and adventure while on safari in Uganda.
For great conservation, the natural habitats of the country are conserved in 10 national parks each having a wonder to express and here is a brief on each of them and more of why you should tour Uganda in 2019;
In the world, mountain gorillas are only found in three African countries and Uganda takes pride in having two national parks with the sought-after mountain gorillas. Bwindi impenetrable national park and Mgahinga gorilla national park are home to more than half of the world’s remaining mountain gorillas. If it’s a safari in Africa, it should be a Uganda gorilla trekking safari for a memorable experience beyond just seeing the gorilla.
