we have most of the world’s mountain gorillas, our birdlife rates as the best in the world with over 1,000 bird species. We have the Rwenzori mountains to climb, the Nile River to whitewater raft, jet boat and fish in or just enjoy! We have 8 National Parks that are teeming with wildlife and Ugandans are the most welcoming people in Africa. .

If you are visiting “The Pearl of Africa” for the first time then we hope that you will thoroughly enjoy your visit - if you are living and working in the country then there’s no excuse for you to not venture out and experience all that the country has to offer.

In this issue we bring you the first part of a two part series on the River Nile, our Safari review is on Uganda’s Primates and our Accommodation review is an update on Mweya Safari Lodge (yes, it’s in this time). Our Sports Review takes a look at Jet Boating, while our Art review gives you a little insight into Enoch Mukiibi and the work he is producing. For all those Whisky fantatics out there our Societies review is all about the art of Whisky making and our Wildlife review on ZIWA Rhino Sanctuary tells us all we need to know about the Rhino’s.
