Best of Uganda and Rwanda

14
days
Uganda and Rwanda share a cross-border ecosystem that's home to mountain gorillas and other rare primates. They're also both home to large game that includes the Big Five. They have their own unique attractions too of course, like Murchison Falls and Lake Bunyonyi in Uganda, and Nyungwe Forest and Lake Kivu in Rwanda. So when visiting one, it makes lots of sense to also visit the other!

Detailed Itinerary

Day 11: Game drive in Queen Elizabeth National Park

Today is all about going on game drives in Queen Elizabeth National Park! There are many animals to look for on a safari here, including lions, leopards, bush elephants, African buffaloes, cheetahs, spotted hyenas, chimpanzees, giant forest hogs, giraffes, zebras, Ugandan kobs, topis, waterbucks, warthogs, Nile crocs and hippos. There are also around 600 species of birds in the park (!), including greater and lesser flamingoes, long-crested eagles, shoebill storks, pin-tailed whydahs, Nubian woodpeckers and southern red bishops.

Day 12: Night-time game drive in Lake Mburo National Park

You head west this morning to reach Lake Mburo National Park. There's time relax at the lodge when you arrive before heading off on an optional night-time game drive. As you may well know, many animals are nocturnal, or at least like to hunt at night (hello, lions), so a game drive at this time ups your chances of seeing wildlife that often remains hidden or inactive during the day. Some of the exciting animals living in Lake Mburo National Park are giraffes, hippos, crocodiles, buffaloes, hyenas, leopards, bush pigs, zebras, topis, reedbucks, oribis, elands and duikers.

Day 13: Walking, cycling or horse-riding safari

Lake Mburo National Park is one of those rare reserves where you can go explore and look for game outside of a vehicle! Today you have some optional activities to choose from, namely a walking safari, cycling safari or horse-riding safari. Each type of safari allows you to experience the landscape and wildlife from a different perspective, and moreover they can take you to parts of the park that vehicles can't reach!

Day 14: Visit Equator sign, then say goodbye

This morning you head to Entebbe International Airport just outside of Kampala, the capital of Uganda, to catch your flight home. But en route you stop at the Equator sign! This is a great photo spot as you can straddle the Equator line, something few people ever get to do!
