Mountain trekking

Tanzania and Uganda are one of the best countries for a great trekking. Africa’s highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro, is the most popular trekking destination in Africa. More than 20,000 people try to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro every year. A popular ‘warm-up’ trek for Kilimanjaro is Tanzania’s second highest mountain, Mount Meru. Although 1000 meters shorter than Kilimanjaro, Meru is a not an easy hike, but well worth the journey due to the beautiful views and wildlife sightings. If you are looking for a more ‘wild’ experience, away from the crowds, the beautiful rugged Rwenzori Mountains in Uganda are a great option. This remote wilderness – with lush, green landscapes full of lobelias – blows you away.

Nature and wildlife trekking

Besides Africa’s highest mountains, Tanzania and Uganda also offer a wealth of nature and wildlife trekking tours. From the captivating landscapes of the Ngorongoro Highlands to the thick rainforests of Bwindi and Kibale National Park, where you can find the highest concentration of primates in Africa. Without a doubt, the gorilla and chimpanzees trekking tours in Uganda are one of the most thrilling wildlife experience Africa offers.

Closer to nature

For nature enthusiasts or adventure seekers who don’t like to spend their entire vacation in a vehicle, a trekking is an exciting way to explore wildlife and nature. It brings you close to nature and offers you the chance to see the world from another point of view.
