FAQS
- The greatest times to visit Uganda are during its two dry seasons, which are between December and February and between June and August.

- More so, Uganda has 10 national parks, and among the ten wildlife parks, Murchison Falls National Park is the largest, measuring over 3893 square kilometers. The Victoria Nile cuts through the park for about 15 kilometers from east to west.
- The second-largest and most well-known conservation area in Uganda, Queen Elizabeth National Park is situated in the southwest around 400 kilometers from Kampala.
- In order to be in bed by dusk, gorillas typically begin building their nests approximately an hour before the sun sets. Like us, they frequently spend the entire night in their nest. Gorillas, on the other hand, sleep for an average of around 12 hours every night, longer than humans.
- The early and late afternoon are when gorillas are most active. They get up shortly after daybreak to look for food and then eat for a while. Adults typically take a nap in a day nest around noon while the kids wrestle and play games.
