Detailed Itinerary for the  25 days Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania safari

These are a unique part of your  25 days Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania safari. 

Meals: Lunch and Dinner

Day 2: Transfer to Lake Nakuru National Park

After your morning breakfast, you will begin the drive to Lake Nakuru National Park. This is a beautiful journey into the Great Rift Valley with a quick stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint to take in the breathtaking views of the greatest valley in the world, which is rumored to be visible from space. You must get to your lodging facility in plenty of time for lunch and check-in.

Go for a game drive in this park later in the day. It is situated on the Great Rift Valley's floor and is surrounded by woodland and bushy grassland. From Lake Nakuru itself to the adjacent escarpment and scenic peaks, the Park offers a great natural diversity and different ecosystems. The greater and lesser flamingo, buffalo, white rhino, waterbucks, impalas, and Makalia Falls are just a few of the 400 bird species that call it home.

Day 3: Explore Lake Nakuru National Park

After a delicious morning breakfast, get into your safari vehicle and embark on an amazing game drive in the park. You are supposed to return to your lodge at midday time for lunch and some relaxation. Go on a game drive later in the day in this well-known reserve, which is home to the Big Five (Buffalo, Rhino, Elephant, Lion, and Leopard) and has been dubbed one of the Seven Wonders of the World because of the annual wildebeest migration, which takes place between July and October as the animals move from Tanzania to Kenya. After dinner, return to your camp to spend the night.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

Day 4: Transfer to Masai Mara National Reserve

The Masai Mara Reserve covers 1510km² of incredible wide-open landscapes and fertile riverine woodlands, following the looping meanders of the Mara and Talek rivers in southwest Kenya.    One glimpse is enough to explain its appeal; it is typical of open savannah, with a mass of amazing wildlife. Wherever you go in the vast Masai Mara Park you will see a frequent amount of wildlife such as Masai giraffes, baboons, warthogs, bat-eared foxes, gray jackals, spotted hyena, topis, impala, hartebeests, wildebeest. Elephants, buffalos, zebras and hippos are also found in great numbers. It is also common to see lions either basking after a heavy meal or surveying the plains for their next meal.  Cheetahs and leopards are harder to spot but reasonably common. The ultimate action here is without a doubt the annual wildebeest exodus, the Great Migration, in July and August when millions of these grazers move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October.

Hot-air balloon trips are an entirely outstanding way of seeing the savannah plains teeming with wildlife. These Masai Mara balloon trips can be arranged at extra cost.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

Day 8: Transfer to Murchison Falls en-route Rhino sanctuary

Today’s journey will take you north from Kampala to Murchison falls national park. En-route, you will visit Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary where you will go for guided rhino tracking with an experienced ranger, which gives you a unique opportunity to view the rhinos from a close distance.

Kidepo Valley and Murchison Falls National Parks once had both black and white rhinos; however, widespread poaching during the Idi Amin era resulted in the disappearance of these majestic animals from the wild. Founded in 1998, Rhino Fund Uganda works to reintroduce black and white rhinos into Uganda and runs a breeding program.

Murchison Falls National Park is the largest conservation area in Uganda covering an area of over 3,840 km², The Park’s name derives from its famous waterfall: the mighty Murchison Falls, which are formed where the Victoria Nile powerfully forces its way through a narrow cleft before plunging 43m down with a thunderous roar.

The mighty Nile River divides the park into its north and south sections. At the spectacular Murchison Falls the world’s longest river explodes violently through a narrow cleft in the Rift Valley escarpment to plunge into a frothing pool 43m below. As the river attracts large numbers of game, a boat safari up the Nile provides the perfect opportunity to see and photograph the animals. You will be watched by crocodiles, hundreds of hippos, buffaloes, water birds, monkeys and all the other thirsty wildlife that the Nile attracts, you go to the bottom of the Murchison Falls, which approaches you with a thunderous sound. By car or after a short hike you can reach the “Top of the falls” from where you have a perfect view of the extraordinary falls and the river snaking below.

You will be staying at a great mid-range lodge, overlooking the River Nile. Here you can relax during the rest of your day.

Kibale Forest National park boasts the highest number of primate species in the world, including the chimpanzees. Approximately 5,000 chimpanzees live in the wild in Uganda, which makes it a perfect place to see them.

An experienced ranger will take you chimp tracking chimp in the morning or afternoon; you might also see other monkey species that live here. Once you locate the chimpanzees you will have a full hour of eye-to-eye contact with them.

For visitors who yearn to get up close to wild African fauna, a research trip is a rewarding adventure. This new and unique experience allows visitors to actively participate in monitoring some of the lions in the park, using locator devices and learning habituation calls, as well as monitoring weather, surroundings and behavior. The results are added to researchers’ databases, contributing valuable information to the overall understanding of wildlife ecology – and helping to conserve this wonderful ecosystem. This will as well give you a 95% chance to see the lions!

The number of people on each outing is limited in order to reduce stress on the animals and to increase the quality of the experience for visitors.

The experiential tourism activities currently available are Mongoose Tracking, Lion Tracking, Hippo Census, and Bird Counts.

Experiential tours last between one and three hours. They usually take place in the early morning or evening, or occasionally at night. All activities must be booked through the Visitor Information Centre in Mweya at least 24 hours in advance.
Night Game Drive: The night at Queen Elizabeth National Park can be better than the day in different ways. No doubt, day time has a lot of things folded in it, like the game drives, launch at Kazinga Channel. The night activities/ game drive might not be so common, but in return it might be your best choice to see the wild cats closer and feel the thrill you can get close to the king of the African jungle.

What is a night game drive?

The night game drive is an activity done when the sun sets and the night falls in the wilderness of Queen Elizabeth national park, it involves the use of a strong spot light torch to see the animals more clearly in the dark. This activity helps you get closer to the animals since they shed their human fear in the night; they can easily get closer to your vehicle; the lions can be terrific and the experience is thrilling.

A night game drive is, no doubt, the most exciting activity in Uganda so far as recorded by those who have tried it. It is good to know the best place where you can book your nocturnal game viewing, and Queen Elizabeth is highly recommended for this activity. Night game drives are also done in other national; parks like, Murchison Falls national park, and Lake Mburo, and these are the only places/ national parks where you can book for your night game drive in Uganda. Looking for the best experience in Africa, take on the 25 days Kenya, Uganda Rwanda, and Tanzania for an epic safari adventure.

Each tracking group consists of strictly eight individuals with each group having a park guide and ranger. Tracking can take about 1- 6 hours depending on how easy and quickly the gorillas are spotted. Once you have located a gorilla group, you will be given exactly an hour with them; hence you should maximize your time well and don't forget to take lots of pictures without using your camera's flash. The tracking trails can be very wet, steep and slippery thus you should wear a good pair of hiking boots.

It also hosts five other species of primates, 113 species of mammals, over 200 species of butterflies and 360 species of birds. The gorillas you track are habituated and can tolerate the presence of humans for a brief period of time, every day.

The time taken to track the gorillas can be as few as 2 hours to as many as 7 hours. Once the gorillas have been located, your group will be allowed a maximum of one hour with them. Coming face-to-face with a mountain gorilla is a truly humbling and emotional experience.
