The Uganda Safari Company - Uganda

The Uganda Safari Company began its conservation efforts in 1992 in the Semliki Valley Wildlife Reserve – an area that suffered badly from poachers during Uganda’s troubled years. Husband and wife team Jonathan and Pamela Wright have worked tirelessly to heal, reintroduce and preserve the diverse wildlife of this area. A key aspect of the conservation effort is promoting tourism.

With this in mind, the company established Wildplaces, low-impact, environmentally sensitive lodges were developed to provide further services and to aid continued preservation. A full-service safari company, TUSC, takes visitors on guided trips throughout Uganda. Itineraries are all tailor-made and vary in duration from three days to three weeks. Safari vehicles are specially designed for comfortable wildlife viewing, with plenty of leg room, large viewing hatches and fully trained guides, so that guests can enjoy a superior safari experience.
