Day 1: Kampala – Lake Mburo National Park
Your driver-guide will pick you up early morning from your hotel in Kampala or from Entebbe International Airport if arriving on a morning flight. Enjoy a scenic drive toward western Uganda with a stop at the Uganda Equator for photos, coffee, and a quick stretch.
Continue the journey to Lake Mburo National Park, arriving in time for lunch at your lodge. After lunch, head out for an afternoon game drive where you may spot zebras, impalas, giraffes, buffaloes, and several antelope species roaming the open savannah.
Later in the evening, enjoy a relaxing boat cruise on Lake Mburo, where hippos, crocodiles, and many bird species can be seen along the shores. Return to your lodge for dinner and overnight.
