6 DAYS UGANDA: JUNGLE AND SAFARI

6 days. 2 national parks. 1 unforgettable experience. This is exactly what awaits you during this short but sweet Uganda jungle and safari tour which is just as diverse as the country itself.

Your private guide takes you to the jungle of Kibale National Park sharing all their knowledge about the flora and fauna you’re about to encounter – plus interesting and fun facts only locals can know. Here, you will reach the top of the world, literally!

In one of Uganda’s most most popular parks, the Queen Elizabeth National Park, all your safari dreams will finally come true: from the Big Five to big views, from stunning lakes to animal encounters which leave you stunned.

To let all these experiences sink in and to relax, we have put together a collection of guesthouses, lodges and camps for you which will not only spoil you with coziness and comfort, but also with authenticity at its best.
