We begin the day with a scenic drive from Entebbe heading southwest toward Lake Mburo National Park. As we leave the city behind, you will notice the landscape changes–from flat urban surroundings to rolling green hills and scattered villages typical of Uganda´s countryside.
Along the way, we will make a brief stop at the Equator, an imaginary that divides the earth in the northern and southern hemispheres. Here you will get a chance to stretch your legs, explore the nearby craft shops and take photos.
Upon arrival, we will check in at the lodge and enjoy a hot lunch. We will then head out for an afternoon game drive through the park´s savannah and woodland habitats. Keep an eye out for herds of zebras, giraffes, buffaloes and various antelopes species like eland, impala and Topi. The park is also a birdwatcher´s haven with over 300 species recorded including colorful bee-eaters, fish eagles and the rare African finfoot.
After the drive, return to the lodge for dinner and unwind.
