The best time to visit Uganda

Uganda has two seasons, including wet and dry, or rainy and sunny, respectively. However, because the country straddles the Equator, you can expect pleasant weather all year, which is suitable for safaris. If you want to see wildlife without being bothered by heavy rains and mud, the best time to visit Uganda is during the drier months of June to September and December to February. However, keep in mind that this is Uganda's peak season, which means prices will be slightly higher and there will be more tourists than in other months. But don't let this put you off visiting; Uganda has never experienced mass tourism, so you won't have to compete for space with other visitors even during peak season.

During the rainier months of March to May and October to November, which are the low season, the prices of accommodation and some activities such as gorilla trekking are reduced, making it a good time for those looking for a bargain. In short, the drier months of June to September or December to February are the best time to visit Uganda. This is due to the fact that you will not lose any time due to rain and wildlife viewing will be at its best.
