Best time to travel ?

The best wildlife viewing months in Uganda are during the Dry seasonfrom June to August and December to February. Primate walks in the forest are a big part of any safari in UgandaThe habitat of rainforests is, by default, very wet, and one can’t avoid rain completely However, after heavy rain, the skies often open up to bright sunshine
