10 Day Uganda Wildlife Safari in the
Pearl of Africa
Visit Murchison Falls Park,
Queen Elizabeth Park, Kibale
Forest, Bwindi Impenetrable
Forest, Lake Mburo National Park
Day One: We depart
Kampala early in the morning and
we provide bottled water along
the journey. We stop off at the
top of the falls for lunch and
enjoy our packed lunch taking a
look at this most awesome sight
of the Nile tumbling down 43
meters through a 7 meter gorge,
the ground shaking because of
the sheer power of the water.
We arrive for lunch at either
Paraa Lodge (upscale) or Red
Chilli (Budget). After lunch
relax and take in the sun either
near the pool in Paraa or
overlooking the Nile from the
restaurant at Red Chilli. If you
are staying at Paraa Lodge you
will be crossing the Nile to
reach your lodging destination
by ferry. If at Red Chilli you
will cross the Nile for your
evening game drive.
This is not a hurried event, but
you slowly drive along the lake
into the savanna and usually it
will be about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
Sights, sounds, and of course a
most wonderful sunset as you
return to your lodging facility
for a delightful dinner. At
Paraa Lodge you will be sitting
on the veranda overlooking the
Nile, at Red Chilli you can see
the Nile below as you eat your
dinner.
Enjoy the moment as you reflect
on your day, the quiet of the
wilderness only broken by an
occasional sound of an animal in
the distance.
Day Two: An early
breakfast and then off to a
second game drive. Guiding you
to where the animals are so that
you have the best opportunity
for viewing and picture taking.
There is nothing like seeing
some lion cubs with their
mother, Giraffes grazing and
Elephants moving across the
savanna. You return to the
lodging facility for rest and
lunch.
After lunch it is one of the
highlights of your Murchison
Falls National Park Safari, the
boat launch trip on the Nile.
You will move up toward
Murchison Falls viewing
crocodiles, an abundance of
hippos, elephants, buffaloes,
antelopes, lots of birds
including the fish eagle, storks
and so much more. The boat moves
gently up the river, it is best
to take some water along since
it can get warm.
The Falls are an awesome display
of the power of nature. The
river is 50 meters above the
falls, moves down through a 7
meter gorge and falls down 43
meters, the sound is deafening
and the sight makes one realize
how powerful nature can be.
Nearby is a bank filled with
Nile crocodiles basking in the
afternoon sun, just down from
there you can see a group of
hippos frolicking in the water
of the Nile.
The journey down river slowly
begins and more opportunity for
viewing animals before you
return to your lodging for
dinner and an evening of rest
and relaxations .
Day 3: An early breakfast
at Paraa Lodge or Red Chilli
Camp and we move toward Kibale
Forest through beautiful Ugandan
countryside. We stop for lunch
along the way and reach Fort
Portal in the late afternoon
where we check into out Lodging
such as up-market Ndali Lodge or
budget Kibale Primate Lodge.
That evening we will take a
nocturnal walk in Kibale forest
that is with spotlights and most
rewarding seeing the nocturnal
animals of the forest here such
as Bush Baby and Potto.
We have dinner and rest and get
ready for a big day tomorrow.
Day 4: It's breakfast
time and a hardy one it is and
off to Kibali Forest National
Park for Chimpanzee tracking and
most likely your guide will spot
other primates, various birds,
flora and fauna for you. Kibale
Forest is one of the best places
for primates in Uganda and you
will surely have a successful
morning.
We will have lunch and depart
for the Mweya Peninsula of Queen
Elizabeth National Park where we
arrive in the late afternoon for
check in at Mweya Lodge or the
budget hostel. Dinner and a well
deserved rest.
Day 5: Queen Elizabeth
Park Wildlife Safari: Early rise
and then a sunrise game drive.
Afterwards there is a ssumptuous
breakfast, that morning you will
also go and see the crater areas
with their breathtaking view.
Afternoon boat ride on the
Kazinga channel with all of its
wildlife and abundance of birds.
Then it is off to an evening
game drive, dinner and rest at
your lodging place.
Day 6: Queen Elizabeth
Park - Chimpanzee Tracking - Bat
Cave & Night Game Drive: Another
great breakfast and for those
staying at Mweya Lodge, we
overlook the Kazinga channel as
the sun rises over Queen
Elizabeth Park. This morning it
is off to Kyambura Gorge for
Chimpanzee tracking. This is a
relative easy walk guided by a
Uganda Wildlife Authority Ranger
who will guide you to the place
where the chimps are. They move
nightly so it takes the skills
of an experienced ranger to
guide you to the chimpanzees.
Afterwards we have our packed
lunch and we are off to the
Maramagambo Forest area for the
bat cave where we usually find a
large python resting inside of
it. The cave with its thousands
of bats is a most awesome
experience for most visitors and
surely you will find it the
same.
After an early dinner we proceed
for a new feature at Queen
Elizabeth, the nocturnal game
drive where you will see lots of
animals that you do not normally
find during daytime hours. This
will be quite thrilling for you
and even if you do not get any
pictures, the experience alone
is worth it.
Day 7 - we move to Bwindi
Impenetrable Forest for Mountain
Gorilla Tracking: A nice
breakfast and we slowly move
toward Bwindi and hopefully we
will see some tree climbing
lions along the way in the
Ishasha area of the park. We
reach our tented camp or budget
lodging in time for lunch and
some rest. In the afternoon we
take a forest walk the location
depending on where we have the
permits for the gorillas. Lots
of opportunities for other
mammals and birds to be seen as
we are guided by a Uganda
Wildlife Authority Ranger.
We return to the lodging
facility for a break, dinner and
sleep for the night
Day 8 - Bwindi
Impenetrable Forest National
Park Gorilla: After an early
breakfast it is off for the
morning briefing before
embarking on one of the most
awesome experiences - gorilla
tracking at Bwindi Forest. The
gorilla tracking at Bwindi can
last from a few hours to the
whole day. The gorillas move to
a new location daily and never
stay in the same place, twice.
There are no words to describe
what you will encounter on your
Gorilla Tracking experience.
Simply a powerful experience to
see these animals up close
within 5 meters of your party of
8. Children under 15 are not
permitted. The walk alone is
worth it, the kind of forest you
will encounter, the ridges and
valleys, the streams that flow
through it and of course you
will encounter other wildlife
besides the Mountain Gorillas
After your tracking experience
return to your accommodation for
a well deserved rest. If there
is time you might do an
afternoon walkabout in a pigmy
village and give you some
cultural insights into the local
Batwa culture.
DAY 9: The Gorilla
Tracking Safari ends and we
shift to Lake Mburo: It is early
breakfast and off to Lake Mburo
National Park. The perfect place
to break a long journey at one
of the most delightful places in
Uganda. You can stay at one of
the classy up-market tented
camps that are eco-friendly and
simply one of the nicest places
you have ever stayed at or you
can stay at the budget facility.
We arrive for an afternoon lunch
and check-in and then it is off
to leisurely cruise around the
lake. There is much wildlife to
be seen from hippos to
crocodiles, birds of all kinds,
buffaloes, zebras, antelopes and
much more.
We return for some afternoon
rest and then it is off to a
sunset walk with a Uganda
Wildlife Authority Ranger. Again
you will seem lots more animals
and after the walk it is dinner
at your lodging with a well
deserved night of rest.
Day 10: The Safari week
is about to come to an end: It
is breakfast and an early
morning game drive through the
five lake game park, viewing the
fabulous animals and birds in a
lovely setting of acacia trees
dotted savanna. Checkout
afterwards and a journey back to
Kampala, on the way we stop at
Masaka for lunch, back toward
Kampala stopping at Nabusanke
Trading Center where you can
stand on the equator, take
pictures and also buy some
souvenirs and crafts then on to
Mpambire where you can observe
the Buganda Royal Drum Makers
and even buy a few, back on our
homeward journey where we arrive
in Kampala in the late
afternoon. A 10 Day Wildlife
Uganda Safari at its very best.
