Lake Mburo National Park Safari

About This Safari

Lake Mburo National Park is the smallest of Uganda's savanna national parks, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in accessibility and charm. Located just 240 kilometres from Kampala, it is the perfect stopover on the way to or from Bwindi, Queen Elizabeth, or Kibale. The park is home to Uganda's only population of impalas and Burchell's zebras, as well as hippos, buffaloes, elands, topis, and over 350 bird species. Lake Mburo itself is a beautiful body of water surrounded by acacia woodland and papyrus swamps. Boat safaris on the lake offer close encounters with hippos and crocodiles, while guided walks and horse-riding safaris provide a different perspective on the wildlife. This 2-day package is ideal for travellers who want a genuine safari experience without a long drive.
