Choosing Uganda parks and lodges

Uganda parks and lodges vary a lot, so decide what you want to see first. Bwindi suits gorillas, Kibale chimpanzees, Queen Elizabeth tree-climbing lions and boat cruises, and Murchison Falls game drives beside the Nile.

Then choose lodges by location, comfort and budget. Our guides compare luxury and budget options, sector by sector.
