This 10-day Uganda safari is a comprehensive journey through the country’s most iconic wildlife destinations, combining primate encounters, classic game drives, and breathtaking landscapes. Designed for travelers seeking both adventure and comfort, the itinerary takes you from the savannah plains of Murchison Falls to the dense rainforests of Kibale and Bwindi, ending with serene relaxation at Lake Bunyonyi.

You will track rhinos on foot at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, witness the power of the Nile at Murchison Falls, and enjoy game drives in search of lions, elephants, giraffes, and buffalo. A boat safari along the Nile and Kazinga Channel offers unmatched wildlife viewing and photography opportunities.
