Why You Should Visit Uganda for your African safari holiday:

In 1908 when Sir Winston Churchill travelled to Africa, he was so impressed by the incredible natural beauty he found only in Uganda - the beautiful scenery, a profusion of brilliant wildlife, a great weather, a rich and ancient culture and the sheer variety. He then called it the Pearl of Africa.

Amazingly Uganda is still as beautiful & natural as Sir Winston first found it over hundred years ago. It is still pure & untouched, one country that has not been affected by mass tourism, & offering that ultimate off the beaten track feel that every traveler looks for in an African adventure.

It is no wander Lonely Planet chose it the number one destination to travel for the year 2012.
