What's this trip about?

    National Geographic has hailed Uganda as the New Frontier in Africa. It has listed Uganda among the top twenty tourist destinations in the world (and only in part due to the amazing Gorilla safaris).  One could describe Uganda as a country which offers a blend of savannah, rain forests, lakes and mountains. The Ruwenzori Mountains are clad by glaciers and they are one of the tallest ranges in Africa. Uganda also boasts a vast species of animals. You will find hippopotamus grazing by the Lake Edward shores in Bwindi, the famous tree lions of the Ishasha Region, and hundreds of other species of animals in Queen Elizabeth National Park.
