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.
The journey continues into Kibale Forest, home to one of the highest concentrations of chimpanzees in Africa. Here, you will experience an intimate chimpanzee trekking adventure before heading to Queen Elizabeth National Park for diverse ecosystems and rich biodiversity.
In the southern sector of Ishasha, look out for the famous tree-climbing lions before proceeding to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest for the highlight of your safari: a once-in-a-lifetime gorilla trekking experience. You will spend a magical hour observing a mountain gorilla family in their natural habitat.
The safari concludes with relaxation at Lake Bunyonyi and a return journey to Entebbe, with optional cultural or city experiences to round off your trip.
