Uganda Tours and Safaris

Kasese sits close to some of Uganda's most significant wildlife destinations, which makes extending a Rwenzori trek a genuinely natural choice rather than an afterthought.

Combining with your trek

Queen Elizabeth National Park is roughly 25 kilometres from Kasese — closer to the Rwenzori than almost any other major Uganda destination is to any other trailhead in the country. Kibale Forest and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest are both within a day's drive, making chimpanzee tracking and gorilla trekking realistic additions to a Rwenzori itinerary rather than a separate trip.

Gorilla trekking

Mountain gorilla trekking in Bwindi is one of the most sought-after wildlife experiences in Africa, and pairs naturally with a Rwenzori trek for travellers already committed to reaching this part of Uganda. See our Rwenzori and gorilla trekking combination.

Chimpanzees

Kibale Forest is widely regarded as one of the best places in Africa to track chimpanzees, and its position on the Fort Portal road route between Kampala and Kasese makes it a natural stop. See our Rwenzori and Kibale chimpanzees combination.

Savanna parks

Queen Elizabeth National Park offers game drives, a boat cruise along the Kazinga Channel, and a genuinely different pace from mountain trekking — often a welcome contrast after a demanding trek. See our Rwenzori and Queen Elizabeth combination.

All tours

We also offer a small number of standalone Uganda safari packages for travellers building a wider itinerary beyond the Rwenzori.

Custom itineraries

If none of our set combinations match what you have in mind, tell us your dates, interests and how long you have — we can build something around a Rwenzori trek rather than fitting you into a fixed package.
