    General

    Peak Season, June-Sept & Dec-Feb. These are the busiest times, with high crowds and prices. The dry weather means wildlife viewing is optimal though that comes at the expense of prices.

    Low  Season, March-May & Oct-Nov. With lower prices and fewer tourists, this is a great time to go. Occasional down pours mean lush landscapes and great wildlife viewing.

    Top tips for activity holidays in Uganda

    Carry cash – while card payments are accepted in larger hotels, smaller restaurants and markets might only accept cash.

    Dress tropically – though generally warm in Uganda, being tropical it can rain unexpectedly so wear lightweight, breathable clothes.

    Sample the cuisine – try Ugandan staples like matoke, posho or rolex, the local food is such a good way to get to know a culture.

    Stay safe – generally Uganda is a safe country, though it wouldn’t be a good idea to travel alone in Urban areas at night.
