Paradise in the mist!

Known as The Pearl of Africa and the source of the River Nile, Uganda is an unspoilt destination where the East African savannah meets the West African Jungle, offering visitors an experience of a lifetime. Boasting an exciting variety of natural and cultural wonders, it is easy to understand why Lonely Planet has recently listed this beautiful and charming location as the number one holiday destination for 2012.

The country’s charm lies in its impressive variety of wildlife species and stunning scenery. In addition to boasting Africa’s largest variety of bird species it is also renowned for its primate species including the endangered Mountain Gorilla which is undeniably one of Uganda’s finest tourist attractions. Over half of the world’s remaining population of the Mountain Gorilla live within Uganda’s borders and it is in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park where visitors can experience this remarkable wildlife encounter.
