6. What is the Best Time to Visit Uganda?
Best time could probably be the key to a memorable tour. Many travelers wonder what the best time to visit Uganda could actually be. Uganda is situated along with the equator a fact that makes it have a milder climate and no extreme weather conditions. Average temperatures are about 21 degrees Celsius and may drop to 12 degrees celsius.
You can visit Uganda throughout the year. However, it depends on where you are visiting since the wet and dry seasons vary. The best time of the year to tour is during the dry season months in the months of June – August, and December to February.
Why safari Uganda in the dry season? When the rains are less, the trails in the parks are drier and therefore less slippery making driving and hiking very easy. The grass is also short and therefore photography becomes clear and sightings better.
However, unlike any other safari destination in Uganda, Kidepo Valley National Park receives one rainy season which is between April-August. This is the best season for other parks and not for Kidepo. The other months of the year are good for visiting the park though December – February can get too hot at times.
Many will tell you the best time of the year to visit Uganda is in the dry season or all throughout the year, but now you can tell why. The country and tour destinations remain open all year throughout and therefore open to tourists though the experience may vary a little.
The time referred to as the best time is always the peak season and therefore parks and accommodation facilities become congested. This makes visiting during the rainy season more preferable. Accommodation facilities may also offer discounts during the rainy season.

Where you stay which is the lodge or hotel is a big determinant to the total cost of your trip.

The number of days you spend on the trip determines how much you will spend. Long Tours in Uganda will definitely be more expensive than short trips. On average you could be spending about 250 USD per person on a single Day trip to Lake Mburo National Park.
The bigger the group, the less each individual pays for the trip. Solo traveler trips are more expensive than group tours.
