Queen Elizabeth- Fort Portal

You'll have an early morning breakfast at 6:00 am, check out of the accommodation, and head out for a morning game drive. Imagine being out in the soft, early morning light, wrapped in a blanket, just as the animals emerge from their night’s rest or from the shadows of their nighttime adventures. The world feels fresh and new on an early morning game drive, the sun has yet to beat down upon the earth, and it may end up being your favourite time to be out on safari. You'll then visit the Kikorongo Equator line and thereafter have lunch before heading for a boat trip. Kazinga Channel is a wildlife viewing highlight of Queen Elizabeth National Park. You'll cruise past pods of grunting hippos, watch elephants and buffalo come down to drink, enjoy flocks of pelican and other aquatic birds, catch a glimpse of the snow-capped Rwenzori peaks, and keep an eye open for the giant forest hog, a local specialty. You'll embark to Fort Portal, check into accommodation, have dinner, and relax.

The Sempaya hot springs, with both a male and female spring, are a major attraction renowned for their geothermal activity and cultural significance. Return to Fortportal City for Amabere Nyina Mwiru, meaning "breasts of Nyina Mwiru," refers to a set of caves near Fort Portal, Uganda, known for their stalactites and stalagmites that resemble human breasts. The name comes from a local legend about Nyina Mwiru, a princess whose breasts were said to have turned to stone after she defied her father, the king. These caves are a popular tourist attraction offering both cultural and natural beauty. You'll have lunch, then go for a city tour, and return to the hotel for dinner.
