WATCH: Kenya vs Uganda

Written by  Tiffany Bowers

 • Travel Writer

Part of the Kenya Safari Collection

Kenya and Uganda might be neighbouring countries but the safari experiences, climate and geography differ greatly. Kenya is a better destination than Uganda when it comes to quality Big Five sightings and plains wildlife in general. Its
game reserves tend to be far larger than their counterparts in Uganda, and to offer a more varied selection of lodges and tented camps.

Equally, Uganda offers several attractions not found in Kenya or indeed most other safari destinations. Foremost among these is the opportunity to track mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and chimpanzees in the likes of Kibale National Park.

Take a look:

Discover the African Journey that’s Right for You

Discover Africa Through Travellers' Stories

These stories capture the real magic of Africa – where every journey becomes a chapter worth sharing.

The true magic, though, is with the people. They’re not just staff; they’re my friends, my family.

I went to Africa to help my parents check a box, but I returned with a new perspective on my own life. Africa is no longer a "someday" destination for me; it’s a "must-return".
