It is not for nothing that Uganda is nicknamed the Pearl of Africa. This small country – at only 241,037 square-kilometre – boasts of 10 National Parks. These are Queen Elizabeth, Lake Mburo, Murchison Falls, Kidepo Valley, Kibale, Mount Elgon, Rwenzori Mountains, Semuliki, Mgahinga Gorilla, and Bwindi Impenetrable National Parks.
These parks display the best in East Africa from the snowy mountain of the Rwenzori, to the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest to the massive fresh water Lake Victoria and the 14-metre tall Murchison Falls.
