Top 10 Best Things to Do in Uganda

Uganda is a country with a rich history and culture. It also offers the best experiences for travelers and adventure seekers. Here are 10 of the best things to do in Uganda

Visit Bwindi Impenetrable Forest

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a tropical rainforest located in southwestern Uganda. It is home to the mountain gorillas, and it’s been protected since 1994 by UNESCO.

It features some of the best hiking trails in Africa and a variety of wildlife, including chimpanzees, elephants, and leopards. The forest also has over 200 species of birds, including nightingales and bee-eaters, that can be seen in low light conditions during twilight hours.

Go to Mgahinga Gorilla Park

You can visit Mgahinga Gorilla Park in Uganda, a wildlife reserve located in the southwestern part of the country, close to the border with Rwanda. The park is known for its mountain gorillas and other wildlife species like gorillas and chimpanzees.

In addition to seeing these animals up close at this protected reserve, you’ll also get an opportunity to learn about their behavior and physical appearance (including how they differ from humans). It includes learning about their diet habits and sleeping habits too.

Go Safari to Queen Elizabeth National Park

The Queen Elizabeth National Park is one of the best national parks in Uganda. It’s home to over 450 species of birds, including the endangered Rothschild giraffe and elephants, buffaloes, and lions.

The park also has a variety of wildlife, including primates (monkeys and apes), antelopes (kob or bushbucks), zebras, wildebeest herds, warthogs, and buffalo groups. There are many different habitats within the park, including savannah grasslands with acacia trees; grassland with trees at higher elevations; swampy areas along streams; forested hillsides covered in dense rainforest vegetation such as mahogany tree species producing bright orange flowers during springtime while they produce red fruit pods containing seeds inside them which are eaten by birds like flamingos who fly back to their nesting grounds when they’ve finished eating these seeds.

Tour Murchison Falls

Murchison Falls National Park is located north of Uganda, 2,700 meters above sea level. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the largest waterfall in Africa and many other wildlife species, including elephants, lions, buffaloes, and many others.

The park offers several options for visitors interested in exploring its diverse flora and fauna: you can hike one day or camp overnight on one of their walking trails; rent bikes for more independent exploration; or visit an elephant orphanage where you can learn about these gentle giants’ carefree lives outside their mother’s protection (or if you prefer not being so close), or even go horseback riding through lush forests.

Go Tour Sipi Falls

Sipi Falls is the most spectacular waterfall in Uganda. There are three different falls, each with its unique beauty. The falls are near Jinja, a town on the shores of Lake Victoria.

The first waterfall you’ll see as you approach Sipi Falls is East Sipi Falls which has a gradual drop of over 30 meters (100 feet). It’s not often that we see waterfalls this high up in Uganda, so this might be why they call it “the biggest” or “the highest.” You can walk behind this waterfall, where there are several small pools you can jump into from below! The second best thing about visiting this attraction would have to be watching people jump off cliffs into pools below them – especially when there’s no one else around for miles around us.

If you want more adventure than just getting wet, head to West Sipi Falls, which has another large pool that people love jumping into, even though it isn’t nearly as deep as East Sipi Falls! Another fun fact about visiting these two waterfalls together – since they’re both near Jinja town center itself; lots of tourists come here during peak season, which means lots more opportunities for photographers who want good photos without having too much work put forth by themselves.

Have a Safari to Jinja Town

Jinja is a town in Uganda, the capital of the Buganda Kingdom, and one of the most important tourist destinations in East Africa. The town has been home to many important historical events, such as the death of King Kintu, who ruled from 1682-1694 AD. The source of the Nile River lies here, making it one of Africa’s most important places for tourism.

The area around Jinja was settled by people who migrated from South Sudan and Ethiopia during their exodus from those countries after their independence from Britain in the 1950s (after World War II). These immigrants brought some unique customs that still survive today among Ugandans: drinking African teas instead of coffee or tea; eating okugongo (a type of pudding); wearing traditional clothing; using palm leaves instead of plastic bags when shopping etc.

Tour Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary

Uganda’s first chimpanzee sanctuary is located on Ngamba Island, near Entebbe. The sanctuary was founded by Jane Goodall and other conservationists who wanted to protect the endangered chimpanzees from poachers and other dangers. The island is a national park that protects both its wildlife as well as that of Lake Victoria.

The Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary offers visitors an opportunity to observe these intelligent creatures up close while learning about their lives to understand them better: they are social animals who communicate through vocalizations or body language; they live in groups (sometimes very large ones); they have complex mating rituals; they play games like hide-and-seek or peekaboo; some engage in creative behavior such as making tools out of twigs and leaves or even creating art like painting rocks with mud.

Visit Mabira Forest Reserve

Mabira Forest Reserve is located in the Mubende District of Uganda. It is one of the last remaining rainforests in Uganda and home to many species of monkeys and birds and endangered species like chimpanzees. The forest reserve was also once used by local tribes for hunting purposes.

Mabira Forest Reserve offers many activities, such as hiking, camping, or birding trips.

Go to Lake Mburo National Park

Lake Mburo National Park is located in western Uganda and is one of the best places to see wildlife. It’s home to over 400 species of birds, 100 species of mammals, 50+ reptiles and amphibians, and 30 fish. The park also has a wide variety of vegetation, including Mopane trees (one of the most important trees), baobab trees (tall skinny things), and many others that you won’t find anywhere else on Earth!

The park has two main areas: Kasenyi Forest Reserve and Kyegegwa Forest Reserve, both accessible via boat or car, depending on what you’re willing to pay for transportation costs when visiting Uganda.

Get a Safari to Semuliki National Park

Semuliki National Park is located in the western part of Uganda and is home to over 100 species of birds. It also houses over 50 mammals, including elephants, lions, and black rhinos.

The park’s name comes from the Luganda word for “copper belt.” The area was once a gold mining area but later became a hunting ground for chimpanzees before it became a national park.

In its natural state, Semuliki features savannah plains with high grasses and large trees like baobab trees that give shade during hot days or cool off when it rains at nightfall (which happens quite often).

Conclusion

There are many things to do in Uganda, but if you don’t have time to see everything, these are the top 10 must-visit attractions. This country is full of natural beauty and wildlife that make for some amazing opportunities for adventure seekers!
