Discover how responsible safari tourism contributes to wildlife conservation and community development in Uganda.


Sustainable safari tourism plays a crucial role in protecting Uganda's incredible wildlife and supporting local communities.

Conservation Through Tourism
Park entrance fees directly fund wildlife protection, anti-poaching efforts, and habitat conservation. Your visit helps protect endangered species like mountain gorillas.

Community Benefits
Tourism provides employment opportunities for local communities as guides, lodge staff, and artisans. This economic benefit encourages conservation support.

Revenue Sharing Programs
A portion of park fees goes directly to communities living near protected areas, compensating for human-wildlife conflict and supporting development projects.

Responsible Tourism Practices
- Choose operators committed to sustainability
- Respect wildlife viewing guidelines
- Support local businesses
- Minimize plastic waste
- Cultural sensitivity in community interactions

Gorilla Conservation Success
Uganda's mountain gorilla population has grown thanks to tourism revenue funding protection efforts. Your gorilla trek directly supports their survival.
