The Power of Connection — A Zoo Safari Story

Taking zoo staff, donors, and wildlife enthusiasts beyond the exhibit walls — that's what Ujuzi African Travel is all about! We recently designed a transformative safari to Tanzania for the incredible Oklahoma City Zoo.

This immersive experience wasn't just about observing animals; it was about forging a deeper connection. Our participants witnessed conservation efforts firsthand, learned from experts, and gained invaluable insights into the challenges and triumphs of protecting African wildlife.

Uganda offers a unique gorilla trekking experience with its "habituation permits." Unlike the standard one-hour encounter, habituation permits allow you to spend four hours with a habituated gorilla family. This incredible opportunity provides deeper insights into their behavior and a more intimate connection with these magnificent creatures.

Contact Ujuzi African Travel to learn more and plan your unforgettable gorilla trekking adventure in Uganda.

Planning an African adventure? Your health is key!

Here's a quick pre-travel health checklist:
- Get routine vaccinations updated: Measles, mumps, rubella, polio, etc.
- Look into the yellow fever vaccine: It may be required for entry to some countries.
- Talk to your doctor about malaria prevention: Medication and mosquito bite prevention are crucial when visiting areas where malaria is present. (Most countries where malaria is present have some areas affected by malaria and other areas that are malaria free, so tell your doctor your full itinerary.)
- Check for electricity: If you have medical equipment that needs to be plugged in, like a CPAP machine, select camps that can provide electricity at the times you need it.
- Stay informed: Discuss any health concerns with your doctor well before departure.

Ensure a healthy and unforgettable African experience!

Founded in 1925, Volcanoes National Park in northwestern Rwanda is best known as a sanctuary for the region’s rare mountain gorillas.

In our recent blog post, we offer a photo-filled guide to everything you can see at Volcanoes National Park and how to incorporate it into your safari.

On a recent trip to Rwanda, Ujuzi travelers visited the Kigali Genocide Memorial to learn about the devastating history of the Rwandan genocide.

"For two hours I walked in silence, reading, learning, and understanding a history that is unknown by many. I left the memorial with a broken heart for the pain and trauma inflicted on the people of Rwanda, but also a sense of hope. For a country that has seen so much damage and loss, it seems to have bounced back—honoring its history, but looking forward to a better future."
— Sarah Waller, Ujuzi Traveler

Today’s Rwanda focuses on building security through community and mutual respect. The last Saturday of every month is set aside for community projects, where individuals from all walks of life join together to help their neighbors—all with the aim of creating a stronger community.
