Best Time for a Reptile and Amphibian Safari in Uganda
Uganda offers reptile and amphibian experiences throughout the year. However, the best periods for herping are usually during the rainy seasons when many amphibians become more active. The months of March to May and September to November are excellent for frog and amphibian sightings, while reptile sightings can be enjoyed throughout the year depending on location and weather conditions.
