It would be an understatement to talk about Uganda without pointing out one of the leading savannah national parks on the African continent – Kidepo Valley National Park. Visiting this national park opens you up to the scenery of Uganda’s landscape regardless of the circuit you choose.

Easy cancellation policies

Uganda’s tourism industry has adopted relaxed cancellation policies for bookings that need to be cancelled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. After the outbreak of the novel virus, Uganda adopted new policies to accommodate uncertainties due to COVID-19.

Currently, the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) offers free reschedules to booked trips that need to be re-scheduled. Travelers can reschedule their booked gorilla permits two times to any date before 31st 2022. This move helps travelers to postpone their trips in cases of infection surges, cancelled as well as in times where home governments may not allow their citizens to move out of their countries.

Save the gorillas

Would you like to save the mountain gorillas for future generations? If so, book a gorilla safari and support conservation of these great apes.

Gorilla tourism and conservation are intertwined. The revenue generated from the sale of gorilla permits is used in running the conservation programs in all the three countries where gorillas are found i.e. Uganda, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Therefore, you are encouraged to plan a gorilla visit and save these great apes that are as few as 1000 individuals left in the whole world.
