DISCOVER UGANDA, THE PEARL OF AFRICA

Uganda is often referred to as the Pearl of Africa, and with good reason. Uganda is a country of astonishing biodiversity, from the glacial peaks of the Ruwenzori mountains to the tropical forests of the Congo Basin. From the semi deserts of the Kidepo to the Rainforests of Bwindi, Uganda has it all. Add to this the Rift Valley and lakes such as Victoria and Albert, not to eve mention the elusive Nile slowly meandering north out of Uganda and you start to get an idea of what this hospitable country has to offer.
