Your Journey at a glance
Arrive in Entebbe and transfer to your hotel. Nicknamed the āPearl of Africa,ā Uganda shines with stunning greenery, deep lakes, soaring mountains, and perhaps the greatest natural treasure of all you will be met by a GoExplore representative who will then transfer you to your accommodation overnight.
After breakfast, you will take a scenic drive through rolling hills dotted with tea estates starting at Kibale Forest National Park. Rapidly becoming a must-do destination in Uganda Kibale Forest offers an accessible and enlightening insight into life in a tropical rainforest. Large mammals aren’t so easily seen but the clouds of dazzling butterflies and gorgeous forest birds more than makeup for it. Besides, it is most famous for its primates and it is commonly known as the primates’ capital with about 13 species of primates. The commonest being the Chimpanzees. You will be transferred to the park headquarters for a briefing and thereafter, the search for the amazing chimpanzees begins. As you track the chimpanzees you will have an opportunity to see other wildlife species such as the rare LāHoestās monkey, the Guereza Colobus, the Blue monkey, Grey-cheeked mangabey, Red tailed monkey, the Olive baboon among others. You will observe them as they feed, play as well as socialize with each other. The tracking takes about 2-3 hours and thereafter you will proceed to your accommodation overnight
Drive to Queen Elizabeth National Park. The drive offers magnificent views of the rift valley. Queen Elizabeth National Park is covered by Savannah vegetation, humid forests, lakes, and fertile wetlands which makes it the ideal habitat for a variety of wildlife species like buffaloes, elephants, warthogs, baboons, and Lions. It also has over 600 bird species. Once you have settled in, you will go for an afternoon game drive in the park.
Rise up early to go for a morning game drive. You will catch up with the early risers and predators returning to their hideouts. You will most likely meet grazing Hippos, Elephants, Lions, spotted Hyenas, bush bucks, water bucks, stripped jackals, comical warthogs, and the elusive leopard. You will also visit the Katwe salt lake. Later in the afternoon, go for a boat ride on Kazinga Channel. The Kazinga Channel is home to many of the captivating species that inhabit the park and taking a boat ride along it gives tourists a chance to cruise just meters from the enormous hippos and buffalos while elephants linger on the shores. Later return to your accommodation overnight.
After breakfast, you will drive to Ishasha which is the southern part of Queen Elizabeth National Park. The place is famously known for its very exceptional residents ā The tree climbing Lions. These are usually major highlight attractions for most of the guests that visit this park. You will go for a sundowner game drive where you might be able to see the tree climbing Lions lazily relaxing in the huge fig trees. There are plenty of other wildlife species to see like Elephants, buffaloes, and many other antelopes.
Have another morning game drive in search of tree-climbing Lions in case you did not spot them the previous day. Later, drive to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park which is one of Ugandaās major national parks and habitat to over five hundred mountain gorillas. The park is situated in the mountainous areas of southwestern Uganda close to the border of Rwanda. You will proceed to your accommodation overnight.
After breakfast, with your packed lunch, your guide will drive you to the park headquarters for a briefing about the doās and donāts during your gorilla trekking. Your Gorilla tracking will start immediately after the briefing. It is a memorable and amazing experience watching the Mountain gorillas feed, play around, and also do their day-to-day activities. This activity can take 2 hours or even up to 8 hours since it’s dependent on the location and movement of the gorillas. Also, expect to walk long distances in muddy and steep conditions- this will require you to have a walking stick. On meeting the gorillas, you will spend one hour with them as you take photos and watch then play and swing on tree branches. Later return to the lodge and choose to relax in the afternoon or visit ride for a woman community project that was started up to support women earn a living from making crafts.
Start the day with an early morning breakfast and thereafter drive to Lake Mburo National Park. The park is the smallest of Ugandaās Savannah National parks and is home to a number of wild animals some of which are not found anywhere else in Uganda, especially Impalas. You will also be able to see Oribis, buffalos, waterbucks, and hippos. It also harbors quite a number of bird species totaling up to 350 species. You will have a game drive. The beauty is that you will be able to see some animals even as you enter the park. Once you have settled in, you will either choose to do horseback riding in the park or go for an evening game drive.
Take an early morning nature walk which is a perfect way to explore the wild as you get up close to wildlife like Girrafes and zebras. Later drive back to Entebbe. You will stop by the Equator where you will get the opportunity to take some pictures and buy a few souvenirs. Thereafter after proceeding to Entebbe for your flight back home.
