Red Dirt Uganda

Happy World Bicycle Day! 🚴‍♂️🚴🏽‍♀️

Today, we are celebrating the simple iron horse that changed everything for us 😎

Without bicycles, no Red Dirt Uganda 😉. These iron horses have taken us down red dirt roads, over mountains, through remote villages and to some of the most breathtaking places imaginable. More importantly, they have introduced us to some of the most incredible people along the way❤️

Cheers to the bicycle: a vehicle for adventure, freedom, friendship and discovery 🍻 Whats the most amazing place you visited on a bicycle?

Meet our team at Poate this Thursday to Saturday (21–23 May 2026)! 🙌🏽

Come say hi, share your ideas, let’s chat about cycling cycling & adventure and get inspired for your next trip.

We would love to meet you there! 😎

LOW SEASON = DISCOUNTED GORILLA PERMITS 🚨 🦍

Low season in Uganda means: less tourists, cooler temperatures, and… discounted gorilla permits 🦍 Perfect for cyclists 😎 🚴🏾‍♂️

Effectively immediately, the Uganda Wildlife Authority has introduced discounted low season prices for gorilla permits. In April, May and November only, gorilla permits drop from $800 to just $600!

Who said you need peak season for a peak experience? 😉
