Uganda’s parks and forests remain accessible in both wet and dry seasons. However, the dry season (June–September and December–February) generally offers easier trekking conditions and better wildlife spotting.
We just returned from our tailor-made Uganda and Rwanda adventure and it was unforgettable. Seeing gorillas in both Volcanoes and Bwindi, spotting chimpanzees in Nyungwe and Kibale, and exploring Kigali and Kampala made for a perfectly balanced adventure we’ll never forget.
