Discover the Mabamba Swamp on a birdwatching tour from Kampala or Entebbe. Search for the rare Shoebill Stork, cruise through papyrus wetlands, and observe over 300 bird species.
Begin your adventure with a pickup from your hotel in Kampala or Entebbe. After a brief introduction, enjoy a scenic drive to Mabamba Landing Site, taking in views of local villages, gardens, and the shores of Lake Victoria.
Upon arrival, meet your experienced local birding guide and board a traditional motorized canoe specially designed to navigate the narrow papyrus-lined waterways. Before setting off, receive a short safety briefing and an introduction to the swamp's unique ecosystem.
Cruise quietly through the peaceful wetlands as your guide searches for the magnificent Shoebill Stork, one of the world's most sought-after bird species. Besides the Shoebill, you may also encounter numerous other species, including African Jacana, Malachite Kingfisher, Pied Kingfisher, Blue-breasted Bee-eater, Purple Heron, Goliath Heron, African Fish Eagle, Long-toed Lapwing, Swamp Flycatcher, and various egrets, ducks, cormorants, and weavers.
The calm waters and abundant wildlife also provide excellent opportunities for photography and nature observation. After your canoe ride, disembark and take time to relax while enjoying refreshments. Browse locally made crafts and souvenirs or interact with members of the local fishing community to learn about their traditional way of life.
Guests choosing the full-day option will enjoy lunch at a lakeside restaurant featuring a selection of fresh local and international dishes while overlooking the tranquil waters of Lake Victoria.
