DAY 2

Morning Game Drive & Afternoon Boat Cruise

Start your day with an early morning game drive where you will see animals like buffaloes, waterbucks, giraffes, Uganda kobs, warthogs, Jackson's hartebeest, and others grazing in the open savannah plains. View predators like lions, leopards, and hyenas before they retreat to their hiding areas. After the game drive, return to the lodge for breakfast and relax. After lunch, head for a boat ride which takes about 2 hours — with spectacular views of hippos and Nile crocodiles in the water, elephants, buffaloes, warthogs, and antelopes along the shores, and water birds like kingfishers, bee-eaters, cormorants, and fish eagles. After the boat cruise, return to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.
