Renowned as one of the continent\u2019s most exotic and romantic destinations, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.travel256.com\/honeymoon\/packages.html\">Uganda is a honeymoon<\/a> couple\u2019s dream. So, if you\u2019ve decided on Uganda for your special honeymoon, here are some tips to keep in mind when planning your unforgettable romantic holiday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t put too much on your plate.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When planning your Uganda honeymoon safari, keep in mind that travel within Uganda is extensive. And travel times between destinations can be long. This is why we recommend choosing just 1 \u2013 2 destinations to visit and spending 3 \u2013 5 days at each hotel, camp, or lodge that you visit. This way, you\u2019re not overwhelming yourself with lots of draining car drives.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-428 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/travel256.com\/safari-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/brovadbeach221.jpg\" alt=\"honeymoon in uganda\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travel256.com\/safari-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/brovadbeach221.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.travel256.com\/safari-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/brovadbeach221-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travel256.com\/safari-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/brovadbeach221-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travel256.com\/safari-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/brovadbeach221-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Canoe ride on Lake Victoria, Ssese Islands<\/em><strong>Decide what\u2019s important to you in terms of what you want to see and do on your honeymoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is practically an infinite amount of things to see and do in Uganda \u2013 it\u2019s one of the most diverse country on the continent! So when you\u2019re planning your honeymoon be sure to list out some of your biggest interests. This way, you can specifically look for destinations within Uganda that cater to those interests. You\u2019ll most likely find that many of the destinations within Uganda are diverse and can cater to ALL\u00a0your interests!<\/p>\n<p>To help you start planning out your trip, I\u2019ve listed some interests below and the destinations I recommended for them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fishing \u2013<\/strong> The Ssese islands of Lake Victoria are exceptional fishing spots.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Beaches \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>You can\u2019t go wrong with the unspoiled beaches of the Ssese islands archipelago in the north west of Lake Victoria. . . Stunning . . .<\/li>\n<li><strong>Photography \u2013<\/strong> Some of the most stunning and dramatic landscapes can be found in Lake Bunyonyi, but if you\u2019re looking for wildlife photography, I recommend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mbararatours.com\">Queen Elizabeth National Park<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hiking \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0Uganda has some incredible hiking routes, especially the Rwenzori Mountains. Hiking around the Virunga volcanoes in south western Uganda is also exceptional<\/li>\n<li><strong>Boating \/ Canoeing \u2013<\/strong> Any of the lake regions are wonderful but I love Ssese Islands and Lake Bunyonyi for Canoeing. Also, Queen Elizabeth Park and Jinja are have exceptional boating.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Adventure activities such as white water rafting, zip line tours, quad bikes, horseback riding \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0Definitely Jinja is the best spot for <a href=\"http:\/\/travel256.com\/safari-news\/2017\/11\/2-days-jinja-tour-rafting-mabira-forest\/\">white water rafting<\/a>, while zip line tours in Mabira forest and Quad biking which can also be done at Ssese islands. As for horseback riding, some of my favorite destination is Lake Mburo National Park where you ride in the wild &#8211; there are no lions, so don&#8217;t be afraid.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bird watching \u2013<\/strong> Bird watching is exceptional in plenty, Uganda is Africa&#8217;s best birding destinations with over 1061 species of bird!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>3. Book with an African travel expert.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a biggie. Planning a <a href=\"http:\/\/travel256.com\/safari-news\/2018\/03\/best-honeymoon-packages-for-romantic-getaways-in-uganda\/\">honeymoon holiday in Uganda<\/a> can be highly challenging when you don\u2019t know much about the romantic destinations within the country. Not to mention it can be super stressful sifting through accommodation and activity reviews online. When you book your honeymoon trip with a trusted Uganda vacation expert, they\u2019ll make sure your itinerary is in line with your exact interests and needs. They\u2019ll also equip you with all the travel information and updates you need to experience a stress-free honeymoon. Uganda&#8217;s travel experts know the best places for you to stay (based on your interests, needs, and preferences), so you won\u2019t ever end up at a lodge that caters to kids and families!<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Decide your budget before planning.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A luxury honeymoon can get to be quite expensive! So, when you\u2019re planning your honeymoon, make sure your Uganda travel expert understands your exact needs, preferences, and budget. He or she will then try to create an itinerary that falls within your budget while still speaking to your interests.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Prepare your travel documents and get any necessary medication(s).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last minute scrambling for travel documents, and medications, can be a nightmare. And having a stressful start to your honeymoon is certainly not the way to go! So make sure that once you book your travel dates that your passport is valid for at least another 6 months after you return home from your trip. You also want to be sure you receive any vaccinations you need at least one month prior to travel. Ask your Uganda travel expert what the recommended shots and medications, and also make an appointment with a Passport Health near you (they will recommend shots and medications, as well, and will administer the shots and provide medication prescriptions if you need any).<\/p>\n<p>Ugandan destinations are quickly becoming more and more popular for honeymoons. Whether it\u2019s a safari, an island holiday, or a road trip, Ugandan honeymoons deliver the goods.<\/p>\n<p>Contact us today to help you plan a honeymoon holiday in Uganda that suits your budget as travel needs.
