Uganda National Parks Guide
When someone thinks of Uganda, they usually come up with one thing – Idi Amin – the infamous president now made famous by the movie “The Last King of Scotland.” Yet Uganda is much more than that, it is a country the size of England with 30 million people, of whom it is said that they are the friendliest people in all of Africa.
A country that is stable and peaceful, where you will find some of the grandest sights in Africa. You can see some of the grandest sights in the world, from the snow and glacier covered Rwenzori mountains, to the many lakes, including the largest lake in all of Africa, Lake Victoria. You can do some of the best white water rafting in the world on the longest river in Africa, the Nile. You can visit fishing and pygmie villages, see the diverse species of birds in this country, and meet the Mountain Gorillas in the Southwest of Uganda at Bwindi Impenetrable where most of the surviving Mountain Gorillas in the world are to be found.
Visit the National Parks and find tree climbing Lions in Queen Elizabeth Park and traverse the Kanzinga Channel where you will find the largest concentration of Hippos in Africa. Fish the Nile, or Lake Victoria and pull out some tilapia fish for your dinner or one of the largest fresh-water fish in the world, the Nile Perch.
