Details Itinerary

Your Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides begins as our representative welcomes you at Entebbe International Airport. Travel north through rolling savannah to the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, home to Ugandaโ€™s reintroduced rhinos. After tracking these majestic animals on foot with rangers, continue to Murchison Falls National Park.

At the parkโ€™s โ€œTop of the Falls,โ€ marvel at the Nile squeezing through a six-metre gorge in a thunderous plunge. Rainbows shimmer through the mist as your guide shares the geology and legend behind Africaโ€™s most powerful waterfall. By sunset, check into Parkside Safari Lodge, where luxury meets wilderness comfort. Sip sundowners on your private veranda and watch the river glow gold โ€” the first taste of the indulgence awaiting throughout your Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides.

Accommodation: Parkside Safari Lodge

Rise early for a sunrise game drive across Murchisonโ€™s vast savannah. With your private guide navigating the trails, spot lions, giraffes, elephants, and the graceful Jacksonโ€™s hartebeest against the dawn light. Later, return to the lodge for breakfast before embarking on a three-hour boat cruise along the Nile toward the base of the falls.

As hippos grunt and crocodiles slide silently into the river, youโ€™ll photograph elephants cooling at the banks and vibrant kingfishers darting across the water. Birdwatchers can expect sightings of bee-eaters, herons, and the rare shoebill. The afternoon concludes with an optional evening drive to catch predators in action before dusk. Dinner is served under lanterns beside the river โ€” another hallmark of Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides, where elegance and wilderness flow together seamlessly.

Accommodation: Parkside Safari Lodge

After breakfast, journey southwest through picturesque countryside to Kibale Forest National Park, the โ€œPrimate Capital of the World.โ€ En route, admire tea plantations and the Rwenzori Mountains looming in the distance. Upon arrival, visit Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary, a thriving community conservation project famous for monkeys, butterflies, and birds. Meet the local guides and learn how eco-tourism supports their livelihoods โ€” a defining feature of responsible travel within our Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides.

Later, check into Isunga Lodge, a serene haven with panoramic forest views. Enjoy a relaxed evening by the fire, listening to distant chimpanzee calls echo through the trees.

Accommodation: Isunga Lodge

Todayโ€™s highlight is your chimpanzee trekking expedition. After briefing, enter Kibaleโ€™s lush rainforest where sunlight filters through ancient canopies. Guided by experienced rangers, follow vocal whoops to a family of chimps leaping between branches. Spend an hour observing their complex social behavior โ€” grooming, feeding, and playing โ€” in one of the most intimate wildlife encounters imaginable.

Return to your lodge for a warm lunch and spend the afternoon relaxing beside the pool or taking a guided nature stroll. Every element of this day embodies Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides โ€” exclusivity, education, and comfort in pristine wilderness.

Accommodation: Isunga Lodge

After breakfast, explore the mystical Amabere Ga Nyina Mwiru Caves and the surrounding crater lakes before continuing to Queen Elizabeth National Park. Check in at Engiri Game Lodge, enjoy lunch, then embark on a boat cruise along the Kazinga Channel, a wildlife corridor linking Lakes Edward and George.

Hippos wallow in schools, buffalo line the shore, and crocodiles bask under the sun. Hundreds of birds โ€” from pelicans to pied kingfishers โ€” paint the skies. Later, a sunset game drive reveals lions, elephants, and elusive leopards. With your private guide tailoring the route to your interests, this day showcases the flexibility that defines Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides.

Accommodation: Engiri Game Lodge

Early breakfast precedes a drive to Ishasha Sector, famed for its tree-climbing lions lounging in fig branches. Your guide positions the vehicle perfectly for photography as elephants and topis graze below. Continue to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, home of the endangered mountain gorilla.

After check-in at Gorilla Friends Resort Lodge, embark on a community walk to meet the Batwa Pygmies, Ugandaโ€™s original forest dwellers. Enjoy their songs, dances, and ancient stories โ€” a cultural treasure carefully woven into your Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides itinerary.

Accommodation: Gorilla Friends Resort Lodge

Wake before dawn for your life-changing gorilla trekking experience. After a detailed orientation by Uganda Wildlife Authority rangers, venture into the misty forest. Trekking through vines and rugged slopes, your anticipation grows until you encounter a family of gentle giants. Observe them feed, play, and interact mere meters away โ€” an emotional privilege available to only a few.

Afterward, travel to Lake Bunyonyi, โ€œthe Place of Little Birds,โ€ whose 29 islands shimmer amid emerald hills. Check into Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort for an evening of tranquility. This seamless transition from rainforest to lakeside epitomizes the balance of adventure and indulgence that defines Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides.

Accommodation: Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort

Spend a relaxed morning enjoying Lake Bunyonyiโ€™s serene charm. After breakfast, try the exhilarating zip-line adventure that glides you over the lakeโ€™s sparkling surface. Later, test your agility on the fun Ninja Warrior Course or paddle across the calm waters.

As the sun sets behind the terraced hills, toast to your extraordinary journey. Few experiences rival the exclusivity and exhilaration of this Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides, where every detail โ€” from your private driver-guide to bespoke activities โ€” is tailored to perfection.

Accommodation: Lake Bunyonyi Eco Resort

After breakfast, depart for Kampala with a lunch stop at the Equator Line in Masaka. Stand with one foot in each hemisphere โ€” a perfect photo moment and souvenir stop. Later, continue to Humura Resort, a chic urban retreat ideal for unwinding before your journey home. Enjoy dinner in the lush courtyard and relive the highlights of your Uganda Luxury Lodge Safari with Private Guides.
