Uganda is rightly called the Pearl of Africa, the people are friendly and most parts of the country are trouble free and can be visited without problems. However, although Uganda claims the lowest crime rate in East Africa, there is sometimes the exception. A few simple precautions will help you ensure that your visit is trouble free. For your own peace of mind it is advisable that you follow the following simple guidelines. * Do not carry large amounts of cash with you or leave it in your hotel room. * Do not leave your valuables or any luggage exposed in the back of your car or on the roof. * Camp only on approved sites and never in secluded areas. * Watch your handbag when shopping or in crowded streets, restaurants or pubs. * Park in controlled parking areas and always lock your car. * When visiting tourist sites do not wander off the trail or the environs of the site unless you are sure you know where you are going. In any emergency dial 999 and ask for police assistance. However, if you observe these simple precautions you are unlikely to need them
