Murchison:
The beauty of Uganda
Murchison Falls National Park sits on the shore of Lake Albert, in northwest Uganda. It’s known for Murchison Falls, where the Victoria Nile River surges through a narrow gap over a massive drop.

Murchison is the closest park to Kampala where you get to see such a variety of animals and is by far the most popular destination for safaris in Uganda.

Semliki Forest:
The rainforest park
Semuliki National Park is located in the Western Region of Uganda. It is one of Uganda's newest national parks, containing 219 km² of East Africa's only lowland tropical rainforest.
The valley boasts of thatched huts shaded by West African oil palms, the Semliki River (which forms the international boundary), forest that is home to numerous Central African wildlife species, and the local Batwa pygmy community that originated from the Ituri. As a result, this park provides a taste of Central Africa without having to leave Uganda.
It is also home to the Buranga hot springs!

Kidepo:
The unexplored
The rugged isolated wilderness of the Kidepo Valley National Park ranks as one of Africa’s most prized, less explored destinations. Here, over 77 mammals and around 475 bird species find shelter amidst a pristine savannah landscape, broken by the Kidepo and Narus Rivers.
Visitors are treated to exceptional wildlife sightings on thrilling game drives. Animals, some of which cannot be found elsewhere in Uganda (think greater and lesser kudu, eland and cheetah); include lion, leopard, elephant and an assortment of plains game.
Kidepo is a birdwatcher's paradise-specifically for those interested in Africa’s birds of prey.

Jinja:
The source of the Nile
Imagine the feel of a beach town in the centre of this landlocked country! Jinja is the retreat centre of Uganda - the beautiful source of the Nile River, rainforests and adventure.
Sip locally sourced coffee by the river, or get more daring with white water rafting, 4 wheeling and bungee jumping. Or, take a leisurely boat ride and head to the Source and see where the longest river in the world begins. Add a trip to Sipi Falls and experience another jewel of Uganda. Hike, abseil and zip-line your way to adventure!
If you want to escape the 'norm', then Jinja is the ultimate destination.

Kampala:
A guided tour
Kampala has an array of beauties to offer to the world - from the bustling city sites, to the coffee and the chocolate factories, and the local foods. You can't come to Uganda without spending at least a day to explore the capital hub of the nation.
Choose between a boda (motorcycle) tour, or for the more reserved, a car tour, and follow your guide as they lead you through the adventure that is the winding streets of Kampala City.
Staying for more than a day? Add on adventure options, boat rides and a trip to the Entebbe Zoo for a behind the scenes experience. Take the once in a lifetime opportunity to feed an elephant and walk with a giraffe!
