Chimpanzee tracking is a favourite activity for many tourists that visit Uganda. They are easier to track than gorillas and are a lot friendlier too. Here are the best places to track chimpanzees in Uganda. There are safari companies to offer assistance to plan a chimpanzee tracking safari upon request.

Kibale Forest National Park

The Kibale National Park is the preferred site for chimpanzee tracking. The destination is home to 13 species of primates and over 1500 chimpanzees. The ideal trip to Kibale would be a 2-3 day safari. The rainforest is also home to forest elephants, buffalos and of course flocks of exotic birds.

Kyambura Gorge

If you are visiting Queen Elizabeth Park, the Kyambura Gorge is quite close and a great experience. The chimpanzees here have been completely habituated, which means that they are used to human interaction and usually go about their business despite the large number of travelers who come to observe them. The gorge also boasts of the rare tree climbing lions that can be observed at a distance.

Budongo Forest

Only three hours away from Kampala, the Budongo forest is ideal for day trips. They have a minimum age for tracking which is 15 years. There is an eco-lodge for overnight travelers and the forest is also home to a number of wild butterflies and bird species.

Kalinzu Forest

Perfect for nature walks and hikes, all the chimpanzees in Kalinzu forest have been habituated by Japanese researchers. The forest is quite close to Queen Elizabeth Park and makes an ideal detour if you have extra time on your hands.

Essential Aspects You Need to Know Before You Buy Land

Every young professional in Uganda today dreams of buying and owning land. It is sometimes considered as the epitome of success. The skeptics are many and to some the gruesome stories of the bad experiences in land transactions are a turn off. The fear of the unknown overcomes the benefit of the risk in buying and owning property.

The question on many people’s minds and the reason they part with hefty sums to lawyers is, WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW BEFORE I BUY LAND?

Ian Mutibwa, an Advocate and Tax consultant, shared with us a few tips on what one should consider before parting with money and venturing into land transactions in Uganda.

Know what type of land you are purchasing

Many people do not differentiate titled from untitled land, mailo and freehold interest. Some people go ahead and part with money to buy untitled land and end up sometimes paying double for it. Most untitled land is customary land or Kibanja land. This means two things, first where it is customary land, it is usually communally owned and one needs to seek permission of the clan or village head before they sell off the community land. Where the land is a Kibanja, one needs to ask the Kibanja holder whether they have duly purchased the same from the registered owner and also request to meet the registered owner of the said property.

Carry out a search at the Lands registry where the land is registered

It is important that you carry out a formal search at the Lands registry. The location of the land determines which registry you carry out the search from. It is important at this stage to engage a lawyer who shall enable you carry out the search. You shall receive a search letter, which clearly shows the content of the title at the Lands registry. The search shall contain details of the registered land, names of the registered owner, size of the land, location, encumbrance (if any) for example, mortgage, lease, caveat etc.

Carry out a search at the land itself (Locus)

The search at the lands office is not conclusive, as it may not indicate what is physically on the land. The land may have plantations, graves, houses, and other tenants. It is therefore important that one visits that land in question before they make up their minds to fully purchase the land.

Visit the local council and police station

In addition to visiting the land itself, it is important to see the local council of the area where you are going to buy the land. The local council usually knows the people in the area and where the person is not the right person, the LC shall advise. Usually it is important to visit the local council with the intended sellers of the land and have a written confirmation from the LC that these are indeed the owners of the land you intend to buy.

Police visit

There may be some disagreements on the land that may not be physical. These may be disagreement with siblings, parents and children and neighbors. These are usually reported to the police. The Police should have records of these disputes. It is important to know of these disputes because you do not want to be in a situation where you purchase land from one brother and are chased off the land by another brother who did not consent. The police shall provide ample evidence of these disputes.

Draft a land sale agreement

I would argue all persons buying land to engage the services of a lawyer to draft the land sale agreement. This is because there are many clauses that one may not envisage and may need to be protected in their purchase. A well-drafted agreement protects both the buyer and the seller.

After transfer of property, do something on the land.

Where the agreement is finalized and the purchase is done and the transfer has been finalized, most purchasers lay back and relax with their titled secured. This is one of the biggest mistakes many people make and consequently end up losing their land to squatters or find their land sold off.

Ian Mutibwa added “It is important that you protect your interests. Lodge a caveat on the land after registering a proprietor. This caveat helps in as far as one is notified when there is a transaction that is happening on the land.”

Staying On Track With Your Diet While Traveling

When traveling sometimes you fall off your usual routine, be it workout, sleep or diet due to unforeseen circumstances that come up in your new locations as you move. We have some tips to keep you on track as you travel.

Have Faith In Yourself

Nothing matters if you do not believe in your own ability to do something and withstand whatever hurdles that will come your way during that stage of your life. Self belief is that warm blanket that gives you hope of something better coming ahead of you in your darkest time and nothing seems harder than staying on diet in a foreign land. The urge to eat from several restaurants and exploring is almost irresistible.

Set Up A Schedule
It might not seem like much but having a well defined schedule for your workouts and food is quite important, it helps you train your body. This helps you maintain a certain discipline while moving about on the road or in a different country.

Workout Apps
Most people do not know that there are several apps that were made just to help you stay fit and eat well. These apps are usually designed according to the off workout routine you usually do. The apps come in handy when you are not near gyms or stuck in conferences all day; you can rush straight to your hotel room and utilise all the space there is and keep up to date with your routine.

Restaurants
When planning for your journey, look up potential restaurants that have a menu that compliments your current dieting plan that will keep you on the right track even if you are away from home.

Roadtrip
It is very easy to cheat when on a road trip as you move from place to place with several roadside food kiosks that serve mouth watering dishes; the best way to counter this is to pack your own food. Once you pack, those pesky roadtrip cravings will be kept at bay.

Mini Fridge
If you feel that the hotel might not have a diet friendly menu, you can call ahead and request for a mini fridge to be placed in your room for the duration of your stay where you can keep several belly friendly snacks and fruits for the late night cravings.

Cocktail Hour
You know how during cocktail hour you throw down several drinks as you meet new people? Well, most of the drinks help top up on your calorie count and might cloud your judgement as you network making you order foods that are off the diet plan.

Stay Active
Do not just sit in the hotel room channel surfing, stay active and explore your new destination. Walking is a good form of exercise that might save you from indulging on what is on the room service menu; it keeps you occupied as you learn new things about the surroundings of your hotel as well as you burning calories.

Exercise
You might get very cramped with work here and there or maybe you are too busy exploring that you forget to stick to your workout plan, but remember what you started in the first place and why you started it. Exercise with every chance you get. You can throw some of the workout routines in your vacation routine; for example before you sit by the poolside to sunbath, do a number of laps in the pool and enjoy sipping some juice afterwards while you soak up in the sun.

Good Landscaping Can Make Your Hotel More Appealing

The plants, trees or flower beds are the first things a person sees when they step on your property and it will either be so appealing they ignore everything else, or it’ll be an eyesore that drives away guests.

Human beings are easily attracted to good looking things and a very well maintained compound is one of them; the guests will be enticed to book your property due to how kept it is.

Landscaping is the art of improving the aesthetic appearance of (a piece of land) by changing its contours, adding ornamental features, or planting trees and shrubs.

There are hotels in Uganda like the Kampala Serena or the Jinja Nile Resort whose landscaping always leaves you breathless; the lush lawns and well coordinated colorful flowers with trees all over their compounds, that it leaves one wondering how much money they spend to keep their hotels looking so picturesque.

If you own a hotel, you too can transform that wild bush into a paradise in just a few ways.

Hire Professionals

Everyone thinks that it is easy to keep expansive lawns and gardens looking good and fresh year round, but it does not mean you should hire anyone who claims to. Even gardens need people who are qualified enough to handle them, those who know what plants grow in what season and what flowers will bloom all year round. Once you get a professional, the rest is easy to deal with.

Careful on the trim and prune job

The reason you trim and prune is to keep the plants looking well maintained and taken care of instead of haggard and overgrown. Do not get over excited then leave your garden looking very bare.

Make it colorful

Nothing more welcoming than seeing beautiful arrays of plants and flowers around the gardens of a hotel. A match of many different colors of flowers will keep it very radiant, make sure you have a few perennials which feature some clipped topiary in well placed locations of the garden. With such colors, the flowers look good when placed at the entrance of the foyer or within the centre of your lawns.

Re-Grass

Incase you are in the dry season and your lawns look patchy with some parts missing grass, you can plant new grass on the grounds to make them look uniform.

Patchy grass can be an eyesore especially if you have a lot of people treading on it. Watering the grass and making sure it has been well cut regularly will leave it looking healthy.

Pathways

Design good looking pathways that thread through your gardens throughout the property to keep guests off the grass when they need to access the rest of the hotel.

This helps you easily maintain the flowerbeds and lawns safe from trampling by unruly guests.

Plant Diversity

It is good to mix different species in your gardens if you want to keep them colorful, use plants that accentuate each other in a way that when mixed they create one huge beautiful masterpiece. A good example would be tulips and daffodils, they work color magic to the garden when you plant them together.

Although it is important to not go crazy with the diversity, only use plants you know will grow well alongside the rest, you need to study them before doing so.

Mulching and Weeding

Every garden needs to be properly taken care of so you definitely need to feed it and clean it. Mulching is the process of applying material such as dry grass or leaves to the soil usually on top of the roots to conserve moisture and improve fertility of the soil.

Weeding on the other hand is when you get rid of unwanted plants in the garden; when you regularly weed and mulch, you keep your garden healthy and safe for the plants in it.

All the above can be helpful to increasing your hotel appearance, but making sure that you do not slack when it comes to maintenance and painting jobs for the hotel are very important too.

Signs That You’re Sexually Deprived

For some time now, I have been hearing about sexual dissatisfaction among young couples. Men complain that their spouses are not sexually attracted to them or women are saying their boyfriends or fiancés were just not interested in sex or had no desire for them.

Most of these couples have unmet sexual needs and feel unsatisfied with their sex life. What causes sexual dissatisfaction? I am left to wonder.

Most people have no idea whether the cause of their sexual frustration can be due to physical or psychological reasons. No matter what the reason might be, sex is an imperative part in every relationship.

Without sex or ‘having fun’ in the relationship it becomes boring and problems will certainly arise.

We must not forget that in a given relationship, couples are sexually incompatible (They don’t have the same sex drive).

When a man is sexually displeased or starved, he acts weird and most times will turn out to be violent and hostile, but when women notice that their needs are not being met, they show some dissatisfaction.

Some women resort to shopping, binge eating or talking on the phone with other women all day and night long to distract their sexual stress.

Researchers have found out that most couples do not have real communication on sorting out their sexual needs, women are afraid to raise it since they may fear possible consequences.

According to Blogger AbdiMahad, the following signs are exhibited by couples whose sexually deprived.

They are moody and unhappy. They get angry with you over some trifle issues. They do not show any enthusiasm in your presence

They have an inability to sleep. At night, they twist and turn in bed. They wake you up and tell you they can’t fall back asleep.

They have little or no emotional attachment

They engage in a constant argument with you

They complain about everything and start criticizing you at the things that never used to bother them before.

They bring up the name of their ex in the conversation

They do not say ‘I love you’ as much as they did, because they are emotionally withdrawn.

They do not show you any affection such as kissing, touching and cuddling.

They do not show you respect.

They do not share common interests. This time, they do not do things you two used to enjoy doing together. They tell you they hate the romantic movies they used to watch. This time, they start watching scary or action movies.

They do not call you when you are at work.

Men in particular start dating or cheating on other women

Men sometimes withhold money from their partners.

Men start controlling women

Some men who are not polygamous use a manual stimulation to feel better. A few numbers of wives reportedly get sexual gratification through self-stimulation

If you are experiencing the above, it’s time to have the talk with your loved one because not every person voices his or her sexual concern.

Case in point, not every woman moans, some have never achieved vaginal, clitoral and G-spot orgasm before.

Communication and trust are the key factors of a long lasting relationship, talk about what you would love to be done to you and ask what your partner prefers while making love to help reduce sexual dissatisfaction among young couples. You will be amazed by the results from “the talk”.

How to Acquire a Mortgage For Your Property

Securing a mortgage can be an overwhelming process. With the fluctuation of the dollar rate in the past year banks have been forced to maintain a high interest rate in order not to acquire many losses and this has also led to many people staying away from mortgages. Shakib Nsubuga, Country Manager of Lamudi in Uganda, said: “ Last year we saw interest rates as high as 24 percent but this year we hope to see them go as low as 16 percent and this will hopefully be beneficial for both the banking and real estate sector”

To help take the stress out of selecting a home loan we have prepared a mortgage guide for property seekers.

According to the Housing Finance Bank, loan sizes must be a minimum of five million shillings depending on the property, location and value. The loan available should not exceed 70 percent if constructing a residential property, 80 percent for purchase of property within Kampala and 30 million shillings for a continuing house loan.

It is crucial that you make sure that your loan purpose is clear before you go to a bank or financial institution to request for a loan. The loan purpose could be construction, purchase, extension or improvement of residential and commercial properties, as well as the purchase of a plot.

For the bank to ensure that the mortgage is affordable, the monthly repayment amount should not exceed more than 35 percent of your income. Where income is not sufficient, security or collateral may be required and the bank will confirm income from your stated employer. Self-employed borrowers are usually required to submit proper identification, audited accounts for at least the last two financial years, a Memorandum of Understanding and Articles of Association, Certificate of Incorporation and their company’s returns.

The property that you wish to purchase must also have a valid land title and building plans with approval from Kampala Capital City Authority if it is within Kampala. Construction must be serviced with water or plans for installation must be in place.

Repayment of mortgages usually should not take more than 20 years for residential and commercial properties. The interest rate on all mortgages in Uganda depends on current economic conditions and the central bank rate set by the Bank of Uganda. Many banks in Uganda will insure the mortgage for you at a fee should you be unable to pay off the loan within the given period of time.

It is also important to know that banks do not provide mortgages for land however you can acquire a salary loan from the bank and then use it to buy the land.

Why is Gorilla Trekking Expensive?

Ever thought of planning a gorilla safari to Uganda or Rwanda and stopped along way wondering why gorilla trekking is so expensive? Well, you are not just alone. Many people have been turned off from their dream of trekking the gorillas due to the cost of the gorilla permits and the entire tour costs. For example, in Rwanda, gorilla permits costs US$1500 whereas in Uganda, the gorilla permits are sold at a minimal fee of US$700.00.

Such a high price for the permits makes the gorilla trekking safari to be the most expensive safari holiday experience in Africa. Many travelers have taken part in this amazing life-changing encounter with the gorillas while others continue to plan their gorilla tours for the nearing future. What is interesting about the gorilla permit fees is that you can pay this money throughout the year regardless of the season. To trek the gorillas in Rwanda, the permit fees remains the same for both nationals and non-nationals which is not the case in Uganda.

When talking to one of the authorities of wildlife conservation at Rwanda Development Board, we were highlighted about some of the reasons why gorilla trekking is so expensive. The reasons among others include;

The Mountain Gorillas are highly endangered

One of the top reasons as to why gorilla trekking is so expensive in Rwanda or Uganda is that the gorillas are highly endangered and therefore requires the authorities to reduce their interaction with big crowds of people. According to recent statistics as of 2016, it is estimated that only 1000 mountain gorillas are remaining in the whole world surviving in the tropical rain forests of Bwindi Forest national park and Mgahinga gorilla national park in Uganda, Volcanoes national park in Rwanda and Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Therefore, this calls for a high cost of the gorilla permits to perhaps discourage some people from traveling hence saving the highly endangered species from the crowds.

Mountain Gorillas Susceptible to Human Diseases

Another reason perhaps is that the mountain gorillas are close relatives to human beings which makes them vulnerable to being infected by human diseases. This means, to save the mountain gorillas from being overcrowded by many humans, the permits have to be put on a high so as to limit some people from trekking them and also to avoid over-exploitation and exceeding the carrying capacity of gorilla national parks, which are Volcanoes National Park, Virunga national park, Bwindi impenetrable national park and Mgahinga gorilla national park.

The need to conserve and offer sustainable gorilla tourism

After experiencing a great loss of mountain gorillas in the 1980s due to poaching and human encroachment on the mountain gorilla habitats. The authorities decided to increase the gorilla permits in both countries so as to accrue revenue which can then be used to conserve the gorilla habitats and also to promote a sustainable gorilla tourism environment. This tells why Rwanda, for example, doubled the gorilla permit fee from $750.00 USD in 2017 to US$1500 aiming to conserve the shrinking habitat of mountain gorillas. Uganda too increased her gorilla permits from US$450 to the current price of US$600. To the Wildlife Authorities Conserving the gorilla is an indirect way of promoting sustainable gorilla tourism in Uganda, Rwanda, and DR Congo. Imagine if there was no limit on the number of travelers allowed to trek mountain gorillas? There would be crowding and overstepping which destroy gorilla habitats. A high number of travelers also make mountain gorillas uncomfortable in their natural habitat, which destructs their social happy life.

Safety and Easy Monitoring

Being that the mountain gorillas are highly endangered species, it is necessary to continuously monitor them so as to ensure they are safe which may not be possible if too many people are allowed to visit their habitats. According to the authorities, the funds collected from selling gorilla permits are partially used remunerate the ranger guides who monitor the wellbeing of mountain gorillas in their habitats such as tracking their movements, feeding, and health status. Tourism police and other armed rangers have also been hired to ensure the safety of mountain gorillas from any external attack by the poachers, and rebel groups who in the past used the gorilla habits as their hiding places. Incase travelers are connecting from one destination to another at night; tourism police escort them which ensures their safety throughout.

Gorilla Trekking is one way of improving the livelihood of the locals

Gorilla tourism has become an indirect source of Local livelihood for the communities adjacent to gorilla national parks. Responsible governments share part of the revenue earned to local communities to improve their standards of living. In Uganda, local people are given 20% of the total revenue earned from gorilla permits while Rwanda gives 10% to local people. Sharing with local people has created a positive attitude of local people towards gorilla tourism and conservation hence reducing the natural resource conflicts between local people and the management of respective national parks. Before the introduction of gorilla tourism and wildlife conservation, local people had full access to all resources in the forest.

PLEASE NOTE: In order to create a peaceful, enjoyable and memorable encounter with these highly endangered species in their natural habitats, travelers are required to follow the gorilla trekking rules and regulations: These include dressing smart for the jungle, keeping a distance and keeping within their groups. The do’s and don’ts are similar in Uganda, Rwanda and Democratic Republic of Congo.

How to behave with mountain gorillas

Mountain gorillas are shy and calm creatures that stay peaceful even in the presence of travelers. You are therefore reminded not to disturb these animals in any way. All travelers must not come so close to gorillas, which disrupt and make them uncomfortable. Also, don not feed gorillas touch them to avoid the spread of human-wildlife communicable diseases. Incase gorillas approach you, you are reminded to step back and let it pass. Travelers are also required to speak at a low tone and keep within their groups not to wander in the forest, which can be harmful.

Therefore, the reasons as to why gorilla trekking is so expensive are all worth the high cost of gorilla trekking but that must not deter you from fulfilling your dream of trekking the gorillas. Truly, this is a magical thrilling adventure which happens once in a lifetime. Book your gorilla permit today to Uganda, Rwanda, and Congo and be part of the world’s best wildlife experience.

By

Renting a vehicle has become a common phenomenon in Uganda because of the safety, comfort, and convenience it creates while traveling. Nowadays people no longer only rent cars for special occasions like wedding ceremonies but even for casual ones. One can hire a car in Uganda for a dinner date with his beloved, a vacation safari in the national park, to meet his business client, and many more. However, car rentals in Uganda do not come cheap, they have a heavy price tag.  The high rates of car hire services can be beaten by applying a few tricks here and there as we shall look at them below;

  1. Search online

The main avenue to find affordable rental vehicles is the internet. It hosts loads of car rental companies providing travel services at unbeatable rates. The trick with online booking is to first shop around by inquiring from several operators. Look at their quotes, compare and choose the most affordable one.

The beauty about online, even if you have booked one car rental, you can simply cancel if you have found one with a better rate.

  1. Do away with the airport

Do not hire a car at the airport or near it. Ensure to rent one from a local rental agency away from it. Airport car rentals are quite expensive because of the high demand from travelers flying into and out of Uganda. You are advised to look from elsewhere like Kampala which has several rental companies with competitive rates. Away from Entebbe Airport, you will be able to find a rental car for as low as 30$ per day.

Do not be afraid of airport transfers, car hire companies in Kampala normally provide free airport transfer services, especially to clients wishing to use a rental vehicle for several days.

  1. Look out for affordable rental cars

Rental operators have a chain of vehicles displayed on their websites and what you select is what is reserved for you. So, when you get to the vehicle selection column ensure that you look at the cheap vehicle within the fleet. The most popular affordable rental cars in Uganda are Toyota RAV4, land cruiser Prado, Toyota Vitz, and Wish. For instance, if you are a couple and going for a self-drive safari, a Toyota Rav4 would be the most perfect vehicle in terms of affordability.

  1. Stick to one rental operator

If you are a frequent user of car rental in Uganda, you are advised to stick to one company. Loyalty pays especially in this travel business. Companies normally give discounts to their return customers as a way to keep them for good. Grab this opportunity and get back to the rental operator who has ever hired a car for you and gets a new deal at a lower price.

  1. Opt for a fuel-efficient vehicle

The fuel prices have become so high in Uganda that the cost of it can be higher than that of the rental vehicle for the entire trip. Therefore, on top of ensuring that you hire a car with a low price tag, it should also consume little fuel. This will enable spend less money on the entire rental deal hence being affordable for you.  If you put the two aspects of low renting rate and fuel-efficient, a Toyota Vitz is the perfect vehicle. However, it is only meant for intercity trips.
