Family Safaris

Uganda is an exceptional destination for family safaris, offering a wide range of activities that cater to all ages and interests. Families can enjoy unforgettable wildlife encounters such as tracking mountain gorillas and chimpanzees, spotting rhinos and shoebill storks, and observing the diverse animals of Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks. These parks provide excellent opportunities for game drives, boat cruises, and guided nature walks where children can learn about birds, monkeys, and other fascinating creatures.

Western Uganda is a top region for family adventures, with its lush rainforests, national parks, and outdoor activities. Older children can participate in gorilla and chimpanzee trekking, while younger kids can enjoy wildlife spotting and visits to places like the Ngamba Island chimpanzee sanctuary. The nearby Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary offers family-friendly nature walks to see colorful birds and playful monkeys.

For families seeking more active experiences, Eastern Uganda’s Jinja is known as the adrenaline capital of East Africa. Here, children above eight years old can try white-water rafting on the Nile River, as well as activities like bungee jumping, horseback riding, quad biking, and mountain biking.

Uganda’s family safaris are designed to be both educational and fun, combining wildlife viewing with cultural experiences and outdoor adventures. With its welcoming communities, diverse landscapes, and abundant wildlife, Uganda provides a safe and enriching environment for families to create lasting memories together.
