The Uganda Planning Companion

The Uganda Planning Companion is the document we wish every first-time traveller had before booking. It covers the things that change a journey at the margins: when to go, how long to give it, which permits to hold first, and the small operational choices that decide whether a trip feels like a holiday or a transformation.

What's inside.

• ✦A month-by-month read of the country's seasons (and the quiet windows most operators don't talk about).
• ✦How to think about pace: number of nights per region, drive vs. fly, and the cost of moving too fast.
• ✦Gorilla and chimpanzee permits: how booking actually works, sector by sector.
• ✦A short field note on lodge selection — what to ask, what to ignore.
• ✦Our designer's 14-question journey-shaping checklist.
