Uganda is a paradise for African wildlife safaris, offering diverse ecosystems that stretch from open savannahs to tropical rainforests and Rift Valley lakes. Among the must-visit parks are Queen Elizabeth National Park, renowned for its tree-climbing lions; Murchison Falls National Park, home to the mighty Nile River and massive elephant herds; Kidepo Valley National Park, often called Uganda’s “hidden gem” with its dramatic landscapes; and Lake Mburo National Park, perfect for walking safaris and birdwatching. These parks are accessible via well-planned routes from Kampala and Entebbe, with Cotis Safaris handling transport in comfortable 4x4 safari vehicles.

A safari in Uganda offers more than just the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino). Bird lovers will marvel at Uganda’s 1,000+ bird species, including the shoebill stork, African fish eagle, and great blue turaco. Wildlife photographers will be spoiled with opportunities to capture golden sunsets, herds of antelope, hippos along the Nile, and even rare nocturnal animals during night drives.
