PRIMATES AND WILDLIFE SAFARI - UOSL014

ARRIVAL
Meet on arrival at Entebbe International Airport and transfer to your Hotel in Kampala.

Day 1
Briefing on the safari. Start for Fort Portal via the town of Mubende set in rolling hills. Picnic lunch en route and continue to Kibale. Arrive late afternoon. Relax at Ndali or Mantana Tented Camp.

Day 2
Track the noisy chimps and other primates crashing around through the high canopy of the forest with colourful birds squawking nearby. Packed lunch. Afternoon walk in Bigodi to see swamp birds and see some of the community projects financed by tourism. Relax at Ndali or Mantana Tented Camp,
Rwenzori View Guest House, Mweya Hostels.

Day 3
Either a day’s walk in the foothills of the Rwenzoris, one of the great mountain ranges of the world, looking out for its forbidding peaks in the distance, or drive straight to QE. The game seen will depend on the season, the Kasenyi plains are good for lion and the Mweya peninsula for a variety of animals. Overnight at Mweya Safari Lodge,
Rwenzori View Guest House, Mweya Hostels or Jacana.

 

Day 4
An excursion to Kyambura gorge nearby to track the fast moving and elusive chimpanzees, one of man's closest relations. The chimp population is quite mobile and viewing is unpredictable but the walk is enchanting. Alternatively go for a nature walk in Maramagambo Forest to see other primates and to visit the bat cave and the blue lake. In the afternoon take a boat cruise on the Kazinga Channel where the wildlife and a vast array of birds come to drink. Overnight at Mweya Safari Lodge, Rwenzori View Guest House, Mweya Hostels or Jacana.

Day 5
Start for Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Either drive via Ishasha, home of the tree climbing lion, roads permitting, or take the alternative route through cultivated expanses. Time permitting, go for a short stroll around the Lodge or explore the village. Overnight at Volcanoes Bwindi Lodge,
Rwenzori View Guest House, Mweya Hostels..

Day 6
Go gorilla tracking walking up steep densely forested hills before finally coming across the gorillas camouflaged in the vegetation. An inspiring moment! Tracking in Bwindi requires stamina and can often take most of the day. Alternatively go for a leisurely nature or community walk. Overnight at Volcanoes Bwindi Lodge, Rwenzori View Guest House, Mweya Hostels.

Day 7
Early start for Kampala, retracing your steps through this green and pleasant land. Picnic lunch en route. Arrive in Kampala late afternoon.
