Best Time for Your Uganda Safari

Timing impacts road conditions, wildlife sightings, and costs:

Peak Season (Dec–Feb & Jun–Aug): Dry trails, optimal game viewing. Ideal for Murchison Falls or Queen Elizabeth NP. Book 3–4 months early 17.
Wet Season (Mar–May & Oct–Nov): Lush landscapes, fewer crowds. Save 20–40% on rentals but expect muddy roads 47.

Pro Tip: Gorilla trekking in Bwindi is year-round, but dry months offer easier hikes 1.
