Itinerary

Day 1: Transfer to Lake Mburo Park Lodge
Kuzora Safari Driver/guide will pick you from the airport and your adventure will begin with a thrilling journey to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. This journey offers a wonderful opportunity to witness the beautiful landscapes of Uganda, including the beautiful hills of Kigezi, and observe the daily activities of people from various cultures. Along the way, you'll experience local markets, craft shops, drum shops, and stores selling handmade cultural materials. We believe that the 9-hour drive will be well worth the experience. You will also have an opportunity to have a stop over and witness the Equator, take photos of the Equator Monument, interact with the locals and also have experiments showcasing the earth’s gravitational pull that all tourists always look up to around the Equator. You are expected to reach Bwindi in the evening and you will check in your lodge for a well prepared dinner and overnight stay.
