Affordability

For a safari, particularly an East African primate safari, Uganda is one of the most reasonably priced destinations. Cost remains a key consideration, especially for safaris that incorporate gorilla tracking. Mountain gorilla tracking safaris are only available in Uganda and are both secure and reasonably priced. The price of a gorilla safari in Uganda is half that of neighboring Rwanda, and permits alone cost 51,500 there compared to 5700 there.

Rwanda promotes itself as a premier destination for gorilla tracking. Everything's price reflects that including the price per night at a hotel or lodge and the profit margin a tour operator will keep. On the other hand, Uganda features top-notch lodges and hotels in the midrange and luxury ranges that are nevertheless reasonably priced for the majority of travelers. Uganda has emerged as Africa's Top Mountain Gorilla Tracking Destination due to its affordability. Not just reasonably priced, but reasonably priced without sacrificing the standard of the gorilla and chimpanzee tracking experience
