Safaris in Uganda

Busanga safaris and our Uganda safari partner Volcanoes Safaris - The No.1 Gorilla Safari Company - has launched two special offers to encourage clients to track mountain gorillas.
Every gorilla permit purchased goes towards the protection of the gorilla national parks and benefits the surrounding communities, supporting the conservation of the much threatened mountain gorilla . This is why Volcanoes Safaris believe it is vital that more clients go tracking when less people are visiting the region and are in effect donating the cost of an additional permit to the gorilla national parks.

Track the fast moving and elusive chimpanzees in the Kyambura Gorge nearby. The safari continues on to track gorillas in the primeval forest of Bwindi, which is home to four habituated families who live in thick tropical forest, tracking here is more challenging as the hillsides are steeper, whist in the area you can also enjoy less strenuous nature walks to enjoy the many birds, monkeys and orchids.
