Completely satisfied, you’ll meet up with the fascinating Karamajong tribe and, once energized, you’ll drive to the remote Kidepo Valley National Park for a unique walking safari. More walking, but then up to the top of the waterfalls, you’ll experience at Murchison Falls National Park and over a swamp in the Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary. In between, you’ll embrace the African zero-footprint way of life, by going back to basic in a village near Kibale National Park. A true journey of discovery!
You arrive at Entebbe International Airport, your gateway to the diverse beauty of Uganda! This is the country of adventurous mountain gorilla and chimp trekking, stunning wildlife safaris, amazing road trips and wilderness adventures by boat, bike, horse or foot. Experience the warm hospitality of the Ugandan people and be amazed by the cultural encounters with the different indigenous tribes. With us, you’ll experience it all! Our driver awaits you in the airport, carrying a sign with your name on it. Welcome to Uganda!
Since the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach, you get to cook delicious Ugandan food this morning. Then, with a full stomach and heart, you wander the city with a local guide to discover the well-known and lesser-known gems of Uganda’s capital, Kampala.
On your way to Sipi Falls you can enjoy a nature documentary IRL… by simply looking out the window. Once arrived, it’s time for a yummy cup of coffee and to find out, how this hot beverage from heaven is actually made.
Marvel at nature’s beauties on the drive to the North of Uganda and visit the animals of Pian Upe Wildlife Reserve. Once arrived in Moroto, you get to learn more about the traditions and customs of the fascinating Karamojong tribe.
See the landscape changing on your way to the northeast corner of the country and experience how it feels to be away from the crowds in a truly stunning setting. Only to arrive in Kidepo Valley National Park, Uganda's least visited gem (but only because it's far!).
Discovering Kidepo Valley National Park on foot and by car gives you the chance to see as much as possible of this special park – flora, fauna and secrets only your guide would know.
Back on the road, you have plenty of time to reminisce about the extraordinary experiences of the last days and to get ready for new ones – in Uganda’s oldest and biggest national park. On your first day here, you already get a glimpse of what awaits you the next day.
In a jeep, with a boat and on foot – this is how you discover the best Murchison Falls National Park has to offer. Get ready to be wowed by African animals, Ugandan landscapes and captivating waterfalls.
The drive from Murchison Falls to Kibale is studded with small highlights like views on tea fields, crater lakes, traditional villages and snow-capped mountains. Together with getting to know the communities close to the park, this day becomes one big highlight!
Swamp walk in Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary at Kibale National Park The swamp walk through the Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary at Kibale National Park is a must-do if you love birds, monkeys, rare animals, plants and flowers. This magical place, also called "home of the great blue turaco", is the home of over 200 bird species. During your walk, you can spot eight primate species in the trees above you, as well as other Ugandan animals such as sitatungas, bushbucks and otters (yes, otters!). Lose yourself in the sights, sounds and smells of this pristine wetland; this is a true gem which only waits to be discovered… by you!
After some exhilarating days, the end of your adventure is near. Enjoy the ride back to where it all started, take in the stunning views once more, and take off with new memories that last forever. Or simply stay a little longer.
Uganda is a safe country to visit (yay!). Especially if you want to join organised game drives with private guides, as you will do with us. There are, of course, some places to avoid in big cities like Kampala or Entebbe. But – as with everywhere else in the world – you’ll be fine by taking some precautions. Just some examples to be on the safe side (pun intended): don’t explore the city at night without a driver or guide, keep your valuables close to you, avoid wearing big and visible jewellery and leave some things like passports in the hotel safe.
This is an exclusive, private safari that allows you to travel at your own pace. This trip is made just for you, exactly as you want it! Our experienced travel consultants will make sure that your wishes come true. There are numerous advantages to such a trip. First, you can cruise around in a private safari vehicle and have a personal guide. It’s completely up to you what time you leave in the morning and when you come back (taking into account your guide’s advice, of course). Secondly, once you’re in a national park, you can observe specific animals or herds for as long as you like. No one will push you to move along. And lastly, knowing your wishes, your personal guide will give you the right tips, turning your trip into an unforgettable experience.
