Highlights
This is Africa on a giant scale. In 14 days, you'll follow the Nile, spot Kilimanjaro rising on the horizon and search for some of the continent's biggest wildlife — from mountain gorillas in Uganda's forests to elephants roaming the savannah. Add rhino trekking, big game drives and proper East African road trip energy, and you've got one trip packed with serious safari power. Best part? You can camp under the stars without lifting a finger (thanks to your very own Camp Manager), or kick back in a chalet-style stay instead.

Itinerary
Hello and welcome to Uganda, the Pearl of Africa! We’ll kick things off in Entebbe, where you’ll meet your Trip Manager and new crew before we hit the road southwest. It’ll be a big drive day, but the views will do the heavy lifting — towns, roadside markets, rolling green hills, tea plantations and rural villages. We’ll stop for lunch en route, with a few short stops along the way. By evening, we’ll arrive near Bwindi, home to one of the last remaining wild mountain gorilla populations on Earth. Tonight, we’ll settle into our camps (that our lovely Camp Manager would've already set up for us), gather for an included dinner and get ready for tomorrow’s gorilla trek.

The trek can be short or challenging (depending on where the gorillas are wandering that day). When we find them, we’ll spend one hour observing a wild mountain gorilla family in their natural habitat. You'll watch them feed, interact and move through the forest. Plus, we've got a packed lunch along the way, then we'll return to camp for dinner and a good night's sleep.

By midday, we’ll arrive at Kalinzu Forest — one of Uganda’s top primate trekking spots, home to chimps, monkeys and hundreds of bird species. With Local Guides leading the way, we’ll follow forest trails, listening for calls in the trees for a chance to spot wild chimps moving through the canopy. After the trek, we’ll roll through Queen Elizabeth National Park on a transit game drive en route to our stay. Keep watch for elephants, buffalo and antelope (and maybe even big cats) before arriving for dinner.
