Lakes & Gorillas

Visit the equator. We’ll stop for coffee, photographs, and roadside crafts.

Queen Elizabeth National Park

This day will let you view Queen Elizabeth’s beautiful countryside and fauna. Expect to encounter elephants, buffalo, antelope, and lions and leopards during the game drive. We then use the Kazinga Channel Drive over the Kazinga channel to watch men fishing in hippo-filled waters.

After breakfast, you’ll go on a game drive into the park’s savannah. Elephants, lions, buffaloes, kobs, warthogs, waterbucks, and other small mammals may be seen. On this game drive, you’ll view the Rwenzori ranges and Crater Lake. Lunch in “the wonderful place” Mweya Peninsula.

In the afternoon you’ll take the Kazinga channel cruise. Enjoy the gorgeous lake shoreline overflowing with “loser” buffalo herds, hippos, crocodiles, and countless birds like pink backed pelicans, plovers, Kingfishers, and many other bird species.

After breakfast, go through Queen Elizabeth to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. This route passes through savannah grasslands and tropical rainforests, making it one of Uganda’s most picturesque.

Stop for lunch and a game drive in Ishasha, where you may view tree-climbing lions. You will arrive in Bwindi in the late evening.

Breakfast early, 8am park office briefing. The rangers will then lead you down small forest pathways through heavy vegetation to find gorilla families. Observe gorillas in their native habitat up close. Gorillas eat, groom, and play. After the day’s activities, plant trees as a sign of conservation. Dinner and overnight accommodations
