Voyzo runs 6 private tours in Uganda, covering 8 top attractions — each with your own guide, driver, and vehicle, and an itinerary built around your group rather than a fixed bus schedule.
Uganda's tours center on its national parks — chimpanzee trekking in Kibale Forest, mountain gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and safari game drives across Queen Elizabeth National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, and Lake Mburo National Park. Voyzo's routes run from Entebbe, Uganda's main international gateway, out to these parks and back.
Because park roads are unpaved and gorilla and chimpanzee treks involve walking through dense, mountainous rainforest, Voyzo's Uganda tours run in a private 4x4 with an English-speaking driver-guide throughout, arranging trekking permits, ranger guides, and hotels or lodges for every night of the trip.

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park
Uganda
A UNESCO World Heritage rainforest in southwestern Uganda and one of the last strongholds of the mountain gorilla, reached on foot on guided treks through steep, dense terrain.
2
Kibale National Park
Uganda
Uganda's premier chimpanzee-tracking destination, a tropical rainforest in the country's west with one of the highest primate densities in Africa.
3
Murchison Falls National Park
Uganda
Uganda's largest national park, where the Nile River is forced through a narrow gorge to create the thundering falls, with boat safaris for hippos, crocodiles, and elephants along the riverbanks.
4
Lake Mburo National Park
Uganda
Uganda's smallest savanna park, known for its large herds of zebras and, more recently, giraffes, with walking safaris possible in parts of the park.
5
Queen Elizabeth National Park
Uganda
Uganda's most-visited savanna park, spanning the Kazinga Channel between Lake Edward and Lake George — boat safaris here reliably turn up hippos, buffalo, and birdlife, and the Ishasha sector is known for lions that climb into fig trees.
6
Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary
Uganda
Uganda's only place to see rhinos in the wild, tracking the country's reintroduced population of southern white rhinos on foot with an armed ranger guide.
7
Kidepo Valley National Park
Uganda
A remote savanna park on the South Sudan border, ringed by mountains and home to kudu, cheetah, and the Karamojong communities who live along its edges — one of Africa's least-visited major parks.
8
Source of the Nile, Jinja
Uganda
The town where the White Nile begins its run north from Lake Victoria, now East Africa's white-water rafting capital, with the Bujagali Falls rapids just outside town.
Uganda has two dry seasons, roughly December-February and June-August, which give the best trail conditions for gorilla and chimpanzee trekking. The wetter months bring lush scenery but muddier, harder hiking.
Uganda's national parks are spread across the country and linked mostly by unpaved roads, with no practical public transit between them — Voyzo's tours run in a private 4x4 with an English-speaking driver-guide throughout.
Trekking gorillas or chimpanzees requires a permit booked well in advance, since each park issues only a limited number per day. Treks can run from under an hour to several hours through steep, sometimes muddy rainforest.
Uganda uses the Ugandan shilling, though US dollars (2006 or newer, with no rips or marks) are widely accepted for permits and lodges. Tipping guides, drivers, and trekking porters is customary and a meaningful part of their income.
A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for entry, and antimalarial precautions are strongly recommended. Pack neutral-colored trekking clothes, sturdy boots, and rain gear for the rainforest parks.
Hiring a porter for the gorilla or chimp trek costs relatively little and is worth it even for fit travelers — porters carry packs, offer a hand on steep sections, and the fee directly supports the community bordering the park.
