Uganda in November

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

Lush green scenery is still prominent in November and birding remains a prime activity to do.

Just like October, the rains won’t interfere much with wildlife viewing if you visit Murchison Falls National Park.

Expect to see four of the Big Five here as well as 450 species of birds, which include the Abyssinian ground hornbill, the black-headed lapwing, the red-throated bee-eater, the rock pratincole, and the shoebill.

November is the last month to hold out for a productive gorilla trekking experience, so if this is what you’re keen on, December is the best chance to go.

Regarding birding, don’t forget to pack your binoculars to see migratory birds up close.

Weather in November

November is in the heart of the wet season. Birding is popular this time of year; although rain is present, wildlife viewing is still possible.

Highlight Park to Visit in Uganda

Murchison Falls National Park
