When to visit Africa for a Uganda group safari
Budget safaris are good for low season months where as Uganda luxury safaris are best for high season months.
Uganda can be visited anytime of the year because of her ever conducive climate that favors tourists from all walks of life.
Uganda’s ideal climate ranges from the warmth of the low-lying areas in the north and north western Uganda to relatively cool weather in the highlands of Kigezi, near Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park.
However, in Uganda most months are dry with daily temperatures averaging between 23-27 degrees and in rare circumstances even reaching 29 degrees in some places.
Cold months include November and May characterized with temperatures ranging between 17-20 degrees, especially in the south Kigezi region.
Due to the cool moist winds from mountain ranges and water bodies, most parts of Uganda have equatorial climate characterized with heavy rains and lush vegetation.
There are ideally two rainy seasons (peaks) – one that starts from Mid-October to early December and the another rainfall peak happens from March – May.
The dry season on the other hand happens between June to Mid – October and from mid-December to February. This is a high / peak season for tourism, due to the fact that it falls within the summer holidays.
The dry season is a great time for epic game viewing and trekking in national parks. Uganda’s climate generally depends on its own topography and that of the neighboring regions.
Towering mountain ranges like the Rwenzoris and Virunga mountains along its margins, the rift valley and abundant waterbodies including Lake Victoria and River Nile all exert a great influence on the climate patters of Uganda.
