Planning a Uganda safari package for 2028 this far ahead might sound premature, but the numbers make a strong case for it. Uganda remains the most affordable of the three gorilla trekking nations, and with pricing confirmed stable under the current UWA tariff period, booking early locks in both your preferred travel dates and today's rate before any future adjustment. Below, we break down what's confirmed for 2028, what a Uganda safari genuinely costs, and 20 handpicked itineraries worth reserving now.
What's Confirmed for Uganda Safari Packages in 2028
The Uganda gorilla trekking permit price for 2028 is set at $800 per person for foreign non-residents, under a Uganda Wildlife Authority tariff period that current UWA guidance extends through 2028. This covers a one-hour visit with a habituated mountain gorilla family in either Bwindi Impenetrable National Park or Mgahinga Gorilla National Park. Uganda's four-hour gorilla habituation experience, available exclusively in Bwindi's Rushaga sector, is priced at $1,800 for foreign non-residents over the same period. Both figures remain the lowest of the three gorilla trekking nations — Rwanda's equivalent permit costs $1,500, nearly double Uganda's rate.

Uganda's daily gorilla permits remain strictly capped, and while pricing sits confirmed under the current UWA tariff through 2028, industry-wide analysis continues to point toward gradual increases across the region in the years ahead as both Uganda and Rwanda lean further into premium, low-volume conservation tourism. Locking in a 2028 Uganda safari package now secures both your preferred trekking dates in Bwindi's most sought-after sectors and today's confirmed rate.
Uganda vs. Rwanda for a 2028 Gorilla Safari
Uganda's $800 gorilla permit remains less than half of Rwanda's $1,500 rate, and that gap holds heading into 2028. Uganda also spreads trekking across two parks — Bwindi and Mgahinga — with more than 25 habituated gorilla groups combined, giving 2028 travelers a wider spread of available dates than Rwanda's more capacity-constrained Volcanoes National Park. Travelers wanting both experiences in one trip should look at combining a Uganda circuit with a short Rwanda extension, though every package above works perfectly well as a standalone Uganda-only itinerary.
Best Time to Book a 2028 Uganda Safari Package
Uganda's dry seasons — June to September and December to February — offer the easiest trekking conditions and clearest forest visibility, though gorilla trekking itself runs year-round with prices held constant across seasons. Because Uganda issues a strictly limited number of daily permits across its habituated families, and popular 2028 dry-season dates will sell out well ahead of travel, booking 3 to 6 months in advance remains the safest approach for peak-season trekking.
Frequently Asked Questions: Uganda Safari Packages 2028
Has the Uganda gorilla permit price changed for 2028?

How far in advance should I book a 2028 Uganda safari package?
At least 3 to 6 months ahead for peak season travel (June–September and December–February 2028), since Uganda issues a limited number of daily permits and popular dates sell out well in advance.

Can I combine a 2028 Uganda safari with Rwanda or other countries?
