About Uganda Safari Travel Guide

About us at the Uganda Safari Travel Guide. Welcome to Uganda. At the Uganda Safari Travel Guide we invite you to explore our lovely country. Make new friends and learn about our cultures and habits.

Who we are

Back in 2019 travel writer Mr. Elly Tumwesiga had a vision. “Uganda Safari Experience” was created to promote Uganda further as a leading travel destination in East Africa. Furthermore to highlight the best places to visit in Uganda. The most prominent and some still hidden places alike.

In the beginning of 2022, this project was relaunched under the name Uganda Safari Travel Guide. A true online Travel Guide for the traveler. Which is carefully crafted and further developed day by day. By a team of Ugandan Travel writers. Uganda Safari Travel Guide is an independent editorial platform dedicated to providing trusted, experience-driven travel insights about Uganda and the wider East African region.

Our Mission

Our mission at the Uganda Safari Travel Guide is to create a powerful online platform to promote Uganda further as a top travel destination of East Africa. In particular to inspire our readers and help travelers explore Uganda with clarity, confidence, and deeper understanding. From mountain gorilla trekking and national parks to travel logistics and conservation stories, we aim to provide accurate, thoughtful, and practical information grounded in local knowledge.

Our credo: sustainable Tourism first

About us : At the Uganda Safari Travel Guide we believe in sustainable / Eco-Tourism. That is why we present in first place safari tips which follow the policies to preserve our natural habitats.

Our Philosophy

We believe travel information should be:

Honest rather than promotional

Context-rich rather than generic

Useful rather than overwhelming

Uganda is one of Africa’s most rewarding destinations, but it is often misunderstood or underrepresented online. This platform exists to close that gap.

Editorial Focus

Our content focuses on:

Gorilla trekking and primate travel

Uganda safari planning

National parks and ecosystems

Travel safety and logistics

Cultural and conservation insights

We aim to balance inspiration with accuracy — helping readers not just dream, but plan well.

Independent and Locally Rooted

Uganda Safari Travel Guide is independently operated and editorially driven.

The platform is curated from Uganda, drawing on local expertise, field research, and collaboration with guides, conservation stakeholders, and tourism professionals.

This local grounding allows us to provide insights that go beyond surface-level travel content.

Our Role in the Travel Ecosystem

We are not a tour operator.

Instead, we serve as an independent knowledge platform that:

Educates travelers

Highlights responsible tourism

Connects readers with trusted resources

When appropriate, we may recommend carefully vetted safari operators and partners who align with responsible travel values.

Collaborations

We collaborate with travel writers, conservation voices, and tourism media partners across different regions.

Our goal is to contribute meaningfully to how Uganda is represented in global travel conversations.

Looking Ahead

As Uganda’s travel landscape continues to evolve, Uganda Safari Travel Guide aims to grow into one of the most trusted independent resources for travel in the region.

We remain committed to clarity, integrity, and a deep respect for the places and communities we write about.
