Crossing a savanna trembling in the heat haze, into the silence of the wetlands

Unseen landscapes set the heart free

Through boat safaris, walking safaris, birdwatching, and other varied activities, you'll encounter wildlife and nature up close. This itinerary lets you fully enjoy the power and tranquility of the great outdoors and precious encounters with wild animals.
Signature points

From herds on the grasslands to waterbirds by the shore, you can experience a wide variety of ecosystems.
Two chances to spot the shoebill in Uganda
Observe the rare shoebill both in the wild at the Mabamba Wetland and up close at the Uganda Wildlife Education Centre. You can experience both wild individuals in their natural environment and close encounters at a conservation facility, fully appreciating their charm.
Scenic experiences that let you feel the land's changes

Enjoy a walking safari to feel closer to the wildlife. With an experienced guide, walk along the lakeshore and nearby conservation areas to observe zebras, impalas, giraffes, and other herbivores from a safe distance. Unlike vehicle safaris, walking allows you to directly sense the sounds of footsteps, the wind, and the presence of animals, deepening the feeling of unity with nature and the joy of discovery.
