Day 2: Game Drive & Kazinga Channel Boat Safari – Queen Elizabeth National Park

Wake up to the early morning sounds of the African wilderness as you begin your first full safari day inside Queen Elizabeth National Park—one of the most scenic and wildlife-rich parks on any group joining safari in Uganda. After a warm breakfast at the lodge, we embark on a sunrise game drive through the Kasenyi Plains, a prime wildlife viewing area known for its large populations of Ugandan kob, elephants, buffaloes, hyenas, and lions.

With our experienced Nextgen Safaris Africa guide and your small group, you’ll explore the park’s vast savannahs and crater-dotted landscapes in a pop-up roof vehicle, offering perfect vantage points for photography and animal sightings. The early morning hours are ideal for catching predators on the move and for witnessing the park’s stunning golden light.

After the morning game drive, we return to the lodge for a hearty lunch and a short rest before heading out again for one of Uganda’s most iconic experiences: the Kazinga Channel Boat Safari. This guided launch cruise along the natural waterway that connects Lake Edward and Lake George provides unforgettable sightings of hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffaloes, and a wide array of birdlife including kingfishers, African fish eagles, and pelicans—all from the comfort of a covered boat.

This experience is one of the highlights of any Queen Elizabeth group safari in Uganda, offering incredibly close-up views of wildlife in their natural habitat and excellent opportunities for nature photography.

In the evening, return to the lodge for dinner and a relaxed evening with your group, sharing stories around the campfire or simply enjoying the peaceful African night.

Day 3: Transfer to Lake Mburo National Park – Evening Game Drive or Boat Safari

After a relaxing breakfast at the lodge, we check out and begin our scenic journey southeast to Lake Mburo National Park, Uganda’s smallest but most charming savannah park. This transfer marks another exciting chapter in your 4 Days Queen Elizabeth and Lake Mburo Group Joining Safari, as you move from the vast plains of Queen Elizabeth to the rolling hills, acacia woodlands, and serene lakes of Lake Mburo.

Upon arrival at Lake Mburo National Park, we check into a selected lodge located either inside or just outside the park. After a brief rest and refreshment, you’ll enjoy either an evening game drive or a sunset boat safari on Lake Mburo (depending on weather, water levels, and group preference).

This park is especially known for its zebras, impalas, elands, topis, warthogs, and giraffes, as well as abundant birdlife. Because it lacks large predators like lions, it is one of the few parks in Uganda where walking safaris are possible—something you may opt to do the next morning.

This is one of the few parks in Uganda where walking among wildlife is permitted, thanks to the absence of large predators.

Accompanied by a trained Uganda Wildlife Authority ranger and your Nextgen Safaris Africa guide, you’ll explore the bush on foot, tracking animals such as zebras, giraffes, elands, impalas, and warthogs. This immersive safari activity allows you to get closer to nature, observe animal tracks, and learn about the ecology and medicinal plants of the area—all at ground level.

After your walking safari, return to the lodge for a late breakfast or early lunch, then check out and begin the return journey to Kampala or Entebbe.
