Morning game drive in kasenyi plains, boat cruise on kazinga channel

Today, rise early for a morning game drive across the Kasenyi Plains, one of Queen Elizabeth National Park’s best wildlife areas, where golden light reveals roaming lions, large herds of Uganda kob, buffalo, elephants, and a rich variety of birds. The open plains offer excellent visibility, making this one of the most rewarding game-viewing experiences in the region. After lunch and a short rest at your lodge, head to the Kazinga Channel for an afternoon boat cruise, drifting past hippos, crocodiles, elephant herds cooling at the water’s edge, and countless waterbirds. The slow-moving boat brings you close to wildlife, offering exceptional photography and a peaceful contrast to the morning’s drive.
