Winston Churchill proclaimed Uganda the "Pearl of Africa," and most travelers would agree with his assessment. A fertile oasis amid the arid highlands of East Africa, Uganda's national parks include lush rainforest, open savannah, and stunning mountain landscapes. While many travelers come to see mountain gorillas in the wild, the country has many other attractions for wildlife lovers. Neighboring Rwanda has made great strides in its recovery from a turbulent recent past and its landscape is as captivating at Uganda’s. Trekking in Rwanda is generally less arduous, making it a good choice for those who would like to see mountain gorillas but would appreciate less strenuous hiking. Costs valid through December 31, 2010; holiday surcharges may apply.
