Uganda named on NatGeo's Cool List 2019

National Geographic Traveller has announced its Cool List 2019, highlighting the 19 must-see destinations which include Uganda. Pat Riddell, editor of NGT said: “Our team of editors, writers and industry experts have compiled the 19 destinations set to hit the headlines, with key openings, new routes and rising-star destinations firmly in the spotlight”. They went on to say "If you’re longing to see mountain gorillas, but Rwanda’s ultra-luxe lodges and high permit fees don’t suit your budget, head for Uganda instead. The steady growth of its gorilla population is one of Africa’s great conservation success stories, with tourists playing an important role. Trekking fees raise funds not only for gorillas and their habitat, but also for Uganda’s other national assets including Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks, home to chimps, giraffes and hippos".
