A compact week pairing Queen Elizabeth’s tree-climbing lions with a Bwindi gorilla trek, entirely by road.
A shorter alternative to our classic 7-day gorilla-and-wildlife route, built entirely around road transfers via Mbarara — Queen Elizabeth National Park for game drives and a Kazinga Channel cruise, then Bwindi for a full-day private gorilla trek.
Met on arrival and transferred to an Entebbe guesthouse to settle in, with no activities on this first day.
A scenic road transfer west, crossing the equator at Kayabwe, with a lunch stop in Mbarara before arriving at the lodge in time to rest.
A morning game drive through Queen Elizabeth’s savannah, followed by an afternoon boat cruise along the Kazinga Channel.
A drive through the Ishasha sector, Uganda’s best chance of spotting tree-climbing lions, before continuing to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
A full-day private gorilla trek, followed by a Batwa community walk and coffee farm visit.
A road transfer back to Entebbe via Mbarara for departure.
