Begin your journey in Semliki National Park, a haven for nature enthusiasts and bird lovers. Explore the lowland tropical rainforest, home to over 440 bird species, forest elephants, buffaloes, hippos, crocodiles, and several primates, including chimpanzees and olive baboons. Visit the Sempaya Hot Springs, where you can boil eggs in the bubbling waters, and learn about the Batwa (Pygmy) communities, one of Africa’s oldest surviving forest cultures.

Next, head to Kibale National Park, often called the “Primate Capital of the World.” Trek through the tropical rainforest to encounter chimpanzees, red colobus monkeys, L’Hoest’s monkeys, blue monkeys, and grey-cheeked mangabeys. With over 370 bird species, Kibale is also a prime spot for birdwatchers.

Finally, visit Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary, a shining example of community-based ecotourism. Managed by the local community, this papyrus-filled wetland is home to an impressive variety of wildlife, particularly birds and primates. More than 200 bird species have been recorded here, including the magnificent Great Blue Turaco, a favorite among birdwatchers.

Bigodi is also home to up to eight primate species, including red-tailed monkeys, black-and-white colobus monkeys, and vervet monkeys. The sanctuary is famous for its guided swamp walks, which take visitors deep into the wetland ecosystem, offering chances to observe both wildlife and the daily life of the surrounding villages.

Beyond nature, Bigodi is rich in cultural experiences. Travelers can visit local homesteads, traditional healers, and craft-making groups, gaining insights into rural Ugandan life while supporting community development.
