So far it has been really hot and dry for the first two months of the new year in Uganda. For those who have already had some tours, this was definitely the perfect time. With fuel prices going down and the perfect weather for traveling everyone is looking forward to the Easter break and hoping that it will still be dry but not too hot by then.
For those in love with culture this is a wonderful time to travel because you have a chance to meet people other than the rainy season when everyone is running to their houses for shelter. You will at least be assured of finding communities very active.
Jinja is a perfect destination with rafting and boat rides especially for a family get away there are a number of activities including biking and bungee jumping.
Ssese Islands would also be a perfect idea for a wonderful weekend get away and the beautiful scenery, sand on the beach, games on the beach, walks on the Islands would definitely leave you wanting for more.
Hiking would also be a must do for this year although one has to prepare for this by exercising early to prevent any problems with muscles, joints after the hike.
Visit the rare and endangered Mountain Gorillas and you get to choose whether its in Uganda or Rwanda. There are various families with names and you can also choose the family you want to visit according to availability of the permits. Note (they are on high demand so one has to book early)
Keep in mind that this is the perfect time to travel and get those bags packed!!!!!
