Weather of Arabia - Uganda is famous in Africa for its rainforests, and for safari trips dedicated to watching gorillas, most travelers come for it, in addition to climbing the Rwenzori Mountains and visiting the source of the Nile River, so what are the best months to see wildlife in Uganda?.
There are two dry seasons in the year, the first from June to August and the second from December to February, and these are the best times for watching gorillas because they are the driest months. Most of Uganda has clear skies during these times, with less rain and plenty of sunshine.
In savanna reserves, plants are reduced and animals congregate around water sources, making wildlife viewing easier. Even during the peak tourist season (June to September), national parks and reserves will not feel crowded, and it should be noted that permits must be obtained in advance to view gorilla.
Similar to the dry seasons, there are two periods of the year that make up the wet season, the first period is from March to May and the second is from September to November, in which the natural landscape in the savanna reserves becomes greener, and because it is the least popular and visited season by tourists, this will inevitably lead to prices drop.
Although spotting wildlife in the savanna reserves is easier during the dry season, many fascinating appearances can still be seen, including newborn animals.
The negative thing in this period is that some of the roads become very bad and cars often break down, and the paths inside the forests can become slippery and difficult, as for the permit related to watching gorillas, which is usually very expensive, its date cannot be amended even if the rains flood the forests At that day.
