Day 3
Today is the moment you’ve been waiting for, the chance to encounter mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. After breakfast, you'll gather with your fellow adventurers for a briefing from your guides. You set off into the dense forest, following the ancient paths carved by generations of wildlife. The trek is both exhilarating and challenging, but the moment you lay eyes on a family of gorillas peacefully going about their daily lives, all fatigue melts away. For one magical hour, you’re immersed in their world, observing their behaviors and marveling at their sheer strength and grace. As you make your way back to camp, you’re filled with a profound sense of gratitude for this rare and unforgettable experience. After lunch, you'll head for a cultural experience where you will visit the Batwa community. You'll learn more as you get entertained by the traditional dances, taste local meals, witness fire making, and more. You'll return to your lodge.

Leaving Bwindi behind, you'll embark on the next leg of your journey, bound for Queen Elizabeth National Park. The drive takes you through diverse landscapes, from mist-shrouded mountains to vast savannah plains. Along the way, you'll pass through bustling towns and encounter friendly locals going about their daily routines. Arriving at the park, you’re greeted by panoramic views of rolling hills and shimmering lakes. After settling into your lodge, you'll set out on an afternoon/evening game drive, eagerly scanning the horizon for signs of wildlife. As the sun begins to set, you'll return to the lodge, reflecting on the day’s adventures under the star-studded African sky.

Day 5
Awakening to the sounds of the African bush, you'll set out before dawn for an early morning game drive. With the golden light of sunrise illuminating the landscape, you'll spot a dazzling array of wildlife, from majestic lions lounging in the grass to graceful antelopes bounding across the plains. Returning to camp/lodge for a hearty breakfast, you'll then embark on a leisurely boat safari along the Kazinga Channel. Drifting serenely along the tranquil waters, you’re treated to close-up views of hippos wallowing in the shallows, crocodiles basking on the banks, and a colorful array of birdlife flitting among the reeds. You'll have lunch, and as the day draws to a close, you can’t help but feel a profound appreciation for the natural wonders of Uganda.

We chose this company thanks to a direct acquaintance of friends who work in Uganda. We couldn't have made a better choice! A 9-day tour starting in Entebbe, spending a night at the rhino sanctuary, reaching Murchison Falls, continuing on to Queen Elizabeth Park, and finishing the tour at Lake Mburo. Perfect organization, high professionalism, and maximum availability from Sympathy, who organized the tour for us months ago, and from Giuliano and Chris, who accompanied us on this wonderful adventure, providing us with tons of fun and becoming part of our family. More than a vacation, I would call it a life experience for both us and our children, which will remain forever in our hearts.

Look no further for your trip to any part of Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya or Tanzania. I am a seasoned traveller having visited over 100 countries and many parts of Africa. Allanblackia Safaris stood out for me. Before the trip, they gave suggestions, answered my many questions and adapted the trip to suit my wishes. When my trip across Uganda and Rwanda arrived, Sympathy was excellent from start to finish. Informative, reliable and showed me so much more than just 'the brochure.' 'I must just take you here...' Sympathy went above and beyond from start to finish. He also has strong family values and gives back to the community. Whilst we were away, a family got stung by a bogus Safari company. Sympathy sorted a trip for them quickly with another company. He said, 'Worry about payment later - lets sort your holiday first.' This is the measure of the man - a decent human being. So book with Allenblackia Safaris (the name of his dad's favourite tree by the way) and you will have an experience of a lifetime across your chosen African country. Thank you Allanblackia Safaris for being the best.
