2 Days Queen Elizabeth National Park Safari
This 2 days Queen Elizabeth National Park Safari offers a lot to discover in the shortest period, starting from the Big Four mammals. These include lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, birds, boat cruises, and many others. The game drive in the morning is mind-relaxing and a pleasant experience to see carnivorous animals. Lions, leopards, and hyenas take down game, especially buffalo, duikers, antelopes, and warthogs.
You will see browsers like elephants and grazers like buffalo in the savannah grasslands. The park is also a bird sanctuary with over 600 bird species, so you can watch different birds. You can also spot different primates, from blue to vervet to colobus.

Day 2. Game drive and transfer back to Kampala
On this beautiful day, wake up as early as 6:30 a.m., pack your luggage, have breakfast, and prepare for an early morning game drive with a professional guide. This activity allows one to meet the Big 4 in their natural habitat. These include buffalo, Elephants, Lions, and Leopards. One can also see different bird species, especially savannah birds. The early start ensures you don’t miss any of the wildlife action.

A second stopover will be at the Equator, a unique experience that allows you to straddle the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. This visit, where the world is zero degrees, is a perfect opportunity for memorable photos and to buy souvenirs from the craft shops. After this, we will return to Kampala/Entebbe, marking the end of your fantastic two-day Queen Elizabeth National Park Safari.
