Women's Circle on Wheels is a small group safari for women who want to see Uganda's mountain gorillas, tree-climbing lions and Kibale's forests in good company, without organising anything alone. Solo travellers are welcome, so it works as a group option for solo female travel in Uganda, and you share the road in two Land Cruisers with a Uganda Tourism Board licensed guide team from Kampala.
