Breakfast at Fort Murchison – have a game drive in the park, through the Savannah, near Lake Albert. You will see Lions, if lucky a leopard, several elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes, numerous antelopes and a wide range of Savannah plus water birds.
You will drive in a 4WD Safari Vehicle having a pop-up roof ideal for game viewing as well as photography. You will be accompanied by a Ugandan Wildlife Authority Ranger who will unveil to you the various things that you could have missed out like a leopard which normally moves alone in a stealth way, the ranger will also point out a number of birds and plants species to you and not to forget the wildlife.
