Lion Tracking in Queen Elizabeth National Park

Queen Elizabeth National Park has an abundance of wildlife spanning 1,978 square kilometres. It is also home to many village communities who share this wilderness with the local wildlife, as such a conservation unit was established in 2006 to protect the wildlife and the livelihoods of the communities. To ensure the continued protection and growth of wildlife, the resident population of lions and leopards are actively monitored by the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) through the use of radio collars. Along with your expert tracker, you head out in your safari vehicle in search of these carnivores, learning about the work they do to ensure the continued safety of these animals. With your tracker, you will be able to head deep into the reserve where no other vehicles can traverse to ensure a sighting of these animals, no matter where they are residing that day.

Chimpanzee tracking in Queen Elizabeth National Park

Kyambura Gorge in Queen Elizabeth National Park is known as the Valley of the Apes, with a significant number of habituated chimpanzees. You might find yourself following a family through dense jungles or steep gorges, so a level of agility and fitness is required! You will spend approximately an hour with the chimps accompanied by rangers, watching their acrobatics through trees, peaceful meanderings or lively interactions. Whilst sightings are never guaranteed, guides know the chimp's movements, so chances of a successful trek are definitely in your favour. For those on a budget, the trekking permits are cheaper here compared to Kibale.

Kazinga Channel Boat Safari

There are few things more idyllic than a boat trip in the middle of national park, where you can sit back and watch as you pass wildlife by unobtrusively, soaking up the relaxed atmosphere. The Kazinga Cruise lasts for around 2 hours. The Kazinga Chanel spans 32 kilometres between Lakes Edward and George drawing elephant to it's banks in the warm afternoons, and huge concentrations of hippo and Nile crocodiles reside in the river.

Birding safaris

With National Parks boasting up to 600 species, it is safe to say that bird-watchers are well catered for in Uganda! Let us know if you are particularly interested in birding - we can arrange for you to spend time with specialist guides to make the most of your time.
