Complete Habitat Coverage
The tour visits Entebbe Botanical Gardens, Mabamba Swamp (shoebill), Semuliki National Park (Congo Basin endemics), Kibale Forest (pittas and primates), Queen Elizabeth National Park (Kazinga Channel), Bwindi Impenetrable Forest (gorilla birding and Albertine endemics), Lake Bunyonyi, Murchison Falls National Park (Nile shoebill and savannah birds) and Kidepo Valley National Park (Abyssinian specials).
Congo Basin Exclusives at Semuliki
Semuliki National Park is the only site in Uganda where Congo Basin lowland forest species can be found. Unique highlights include lyre-tailed honeyguide, African piculet, yellow-throated cuckoo, African dwarf kingfisher and red-billed dwarf hornbill — species that require a special visit to this remote park in western Uganda.
