The 3-Day Uganda Wildlife Safari is a thrilling adventure that takes you through some of the country's most iconic landscapes, providing unforgettable wildlife encounters. This safari will take you deep into Uganda’s renowned national parks, where you’ll have the opportunity to experience diverse wildlife, lush scenery, and immerse yourself in the country’s rich natural heritage. You’ll visit some of Uganda’s most famous parks, including Queen Elizabeth National Park and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, both known for their diverse ecosystems and iconic animal populations, including the majestic mountain gorillas.
On your second day, you’ll start with an early morning game drive in the park, when wildlife is most active. Expect to see large herds of elephants, buffaloes, and a variety of antelope species. Queen Elizabeth is also home to a rich birdlife, including over 600 species, making it a fantastic destination for birdwatching.
After the game drive, you will enjoy a boat safari on the Kazinga Channel, a natural waterway that connects Lake George and Lake Edward. This boat cruise offers fantastic opportunities for spotting aquatic wildlife such as hippos, crocodiles, and various waterbirds. It is also a perfect opportunity to observe elephants and buffaloes coming down to the water to drink.
After the boat safari, you’ll have lunch at the lodge and then begin the journey to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, known for its incredible biodiversity and the rare mountain gorillas that inhabit the area.
Upon arrival at Bwindi, you will check into your accommodation and have an evening at leisure, preparing for your gorilla trekking experience the following day.
The highlight of your Uganda Wildlife Safari is an early morning trek in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home to half of the world’s remaining mountain gorilla population. You’ll be briefed by park rangers on safety procedures before beginning your trek through the dense, mist-covered forest.
The trek can take anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, depending on the location of the gorillas. Once you encounter a family of gorillas, you’ll have an hour to observe them in their natural habitat. This rare and emotional experience of seeing the mountain gorillas up close is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that many travelers describe as life-changing.
After the trek, you’ll return to the park headquarters, where you’ll have the chance to share your experience with fellow trekkers. You’ll then enjoy lunch at the lodge and, depending on your schedule, begin your return journey to Kampala or Entebbe.
