Looking for the   best places to visit in Uganda ? ... Often called the “Pearl of Africa,” Uganda is a country jam-packed with #breathtaking #scenery, #naturalwonders, #exotic #wildlife and #fascinating #culture.  If you are traveling to Uganda for the first time, you may be hard-pressed to decide which places are best to #explore. To settle your #dilemma, we have compiled a list of the most #beautiful places to visit in Uganda. If you really want to #experience the heart of Uganda, the story begins with  # LakeVictoria , which is the #birthplace of the #NileRiver. Not only is it  # Africa’s largest lake   and the #world’slargesttropicallake, but #LakeVictoria also boasts one of the world’s largest #ecosystems. There is so much #naturalbeauty and #wildlife to see here – from #scenic #mountainviews to #islands, #beaches, #fishingboats and #variousbird and #animalspecies.

While it’s great to plan and save up for a big, week long family vacation, sometimes it’s just as good to get away for a long weekend with the kids. And weekend trips can be cheaper – depending where you go, that is. Plan your next escape with one of these cheap family weekend getaways. Well #www.ssemambotours.com has got you covered with some gate away ideas this weekend SATURDAY: Rise early to beat the heat and traffic on Jinja Road and head out to Jinja Town. You can board a taxi from either the Old Taxi Park or from almost any taxi stage along Kampala Road. It takes about 2 hours. There are MANY bed and breakfasts that have both a swimming pool and amazing Lake Victoria view. My current favourite is Sergio’s, a solid mid-range (quiet) option with pretty good pizza. Brisk Hotel Triangle is more budget friendly and a little louder. 2 Friends is the over $100 option, but worth it if you really want a treat. Relax poolside during the day and over lunch. Evening? Get reception to c...

And I don’t apologize to the #gazelle when I take it down. which keeps me #wondering........

Bwindi Impenetrable National Park lies in southwestern Uganda on the edge of the Rift Valley. Its mist-covered hillsides are blanketed by one of Uganda's oldest and most biologically diverse rainforests, which dates back over 25,000 years and contains almost 400 species of plants. More famously, this “impenetrable forest” also protects an estimated  400 mountain gorillas  – roughly half of the world’s population, including several habituated groups, which can be tracked. This biologically diverse region also provides shelter to a further 120 mammals, including several primate species such as baboons and chimpanzees, as well as elephants and antelopes. There are around 350 species of birds hosted in this forest, including 23 Albertine Rift endemics. The neighboring towns of Buhoma and Nkuringo both have an impressive array of   luxury lodges, rustic bandas and budget campsites , as well as restaurants, craft stalls and guiding services.

The #hotsprings in Uganda are one of the most attractive features the country was gifted with. The springs of hot water have attracted thousands of tourists on Uganda #safaris who often bath in cold water and enjoy the #warm #breeze around them. In western Uganda, the #Ankole’s till today boil millet porridge (Obushera) from Kitagata hot springs because the water is very hot. There have also been claims that the water is a #natural source of #medicine and whenever an ill person took a bathe in it they would be #healed immediately. This is because chemicals like Chlorine and more that are used in making drugs are found in these hot springs in Uganda.The hot springs in Uganda are dispersed across various regions of the country and each of them has something unique to show. Most of our Uganda #safarispackages will let you explore these attractions supposing they are close to the area of travel.

Birding and butterfly watching go together like peas and carrots, especially here in Africa. For many wildlife safaris, especially in Uganda, birding is best done in the morning hours. As it gets warmer, the birds tend to relax in the shade while butterflies become more active, which allows a natural shift of our attention to another set of beautiful flying creatures. Our tours are always well designed to bring a memorable birding and wildlife safari experience in Uganda....In that photographers find no reason to rest throughout the tour...do you know why..well to us ,#cuteness #fun and #adventure keeps their hearts skipping beats as they capture the sights and sounds of #thepearl of #Africa.
