Best Time to Go for Uganda Tours?

Uganda’s raised topography and the tropical region factor mean a cooler climate than its equatorial setting suggests. But if you’re planning a gorilla Tours tour to Uganda, it’s important to know when to go for Tours in Uganda for the easiest gorilla trekking conditions. Gorilla Tours in Uganda are regarded as a year-round activity. But the best time to visit Uganda for a gorilla trekking Tour is during the country’s two dry seasons. The dry seasons in Uganda are the periods of December to March and June to September.

Game viewing in Uganda’s savannah parks is best at the end of the dry seasons – January to April and September/ October. This is when wildlife is concentrated around water sources. Bird Tours in Uganda are fantastic all year round but are at their peak between November and April when migrant species are present. We would recommend avoiding Uganda Tours entirely during the heavy rains of April and May, especially for gorilla trekking Tours.
