AT ONE · East Africa
Uganda
Gorillas · Primates · Wild Heart of Africa
Uganda is where the rainforest meets the savannah, where the Nile begins its 6,650km journey, and where the last mountain gorillas on earth live wild in ancient mist-filled forests. AT ONE arranges the most intimate encounters with Africa's great primates — and the wildlife wilderness that surrounds them.
The Pearl of Africa
Where the
Rainforest Breathes
Winston Churchill called Uganda the Pearl of Africa. In the century since, nothing has changed that assessment. It is a country of extraordinary biological diversity — equatorial forest, savannah, mountain, wetland, and the source of the world's greatest river — all within a land the size of the United Kingdom.
Uganda is above all the country of the great apes. Half the world's remaining mountain gorillas live in Bwindi's ancient forest. The chimpanzees of Kibale are the most accessible on earth. These are encounters that change how you understand what it is to be human.
