When Is The Worst/Best Time to Visit Uganda: A Climate Guide

The best time to visit Uganda is during its two dry seasons, from December to February and June to September, for optimal wildlife viewing and easier gorilla trekking. During these times, the weather is generally drier and trails are less muddy, making it easier to spot animals gathered at water sources. However, Uganda is a year-round destination, and visiting during the wet seasons (March-May and October-November) can offer fewer crowds and lower prices, with the benefit of dramatic landscapes.
