There's also plenty of opportunity to engage with the local people and learn more from the various cultural groups you will encounter.
During your trip, you will visit Murchison Falls, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth, Bwindi Forest, and Lake Mburo National Parks with your own experienced wildlife guide. You will stay in recommended and well-located lodges and camps and enjoy a host of activities which include tracking gorillas and chimps, game drives, boat cruises, birdwatching, hikes and visiting a Rhino Sanctuary.
