When you arrive in Entebbe, a Wildhorn Africa guide will meet you and take you to your hotel in Kampala.

If time allows, you can spend the afternoon discovering Kampala and its surroundings. Highlights include the Royal Mile with the Lubiri Palace and Bulange Parliament, the lively Ndere Cultural Centre, the historic Kasubi Royal Tombs, and the impressive Kampala Central Mosque, where you can enjoy sweeping views of the city from its Minaret.

Spend the day at leisure at your lodge with Wildhorn Africa, choosing from a wide range of optional activities. For thrill-seekers, there’s white-water rafting on the mighty River Nile, kayaking, or even boogie boarding through the rapids. If you prefer a slower pace, you can opt for a soothing massage, try paddle boarding on the calm stretches of water, or enjoy a scenic horseback ride with breathtaking views of the landscape.

Today, your Wildhorn Africa journey takes you through breathtaking landscapes en route to Sipi Falls, one of Uganda’s true hidden treasures. From your lodge, you’ll be treated to stunning views as the Sipi River cascades down from the slopes of Mount Elgon.

In the afternoon, you can choose from a variety of excursions and adventure-filled activities. Take a guided nature walk, hike to one of the enchanting waterfalls nearby, explore coffee plantations or local villages, or experience the thrill of abseiling from the top of Chebonet Falls. You may also join a guided birdwatching trip or visit the fascinating Nyero rock paintings in the Kumi district.

Today, you’ll have the entire day to discover the beauty of Sipi Falls and its surrounding landscapes.

For those seeking a true adventure, consider tackling Mount Elgon, an extinct volcano straddling the Kenya–Uganda border within Mount Elgon National Park. Its massive caldera, formed by the collapse of the volcanic cone, is the largest in the world and creates a dramatic spectacle visible from Wagagai, the park’s highest peak at 4,321 meters. The most popular route on the Ugandan side is the Sasa Trail from Budadiri, a breathtaking trek that winds through farmland, lush forests, and heather zones before reaching the caldera’s rim and continuing on to the summit.

The full climb takes about four days. If trekking Mount Elgon interests you, Wildhorn Africa can arrange a tailor-made Uganda itinerary to include this unforgettable experience at an additional cost.

Today, your Wildhorn Africa journey takes you on a six-hour drive to Moroto Town in northeastern Uganda, where you’ll be introduced to the fascinating Karamojong people.

For a truly authentic cultural encounter, we recommend spending the night in a traditional Karamojong kraal.

It’s an experience that feels nothing short of magical.

Kibale Forest is also home to a variety of other primates, including colobus and red-tailed monkeys, as well as dazzling butterflies in all sizes and colors.

For an added adventure, Wildhorn Africa recommends the famous “swamp walk” — a two-hour trek through wetlands where you’ll meet local communities living in this challenging environment, all while enjoying breathtaking scenery and the chance to spot rare wildlife along the way.

The trek can last anywhere from a short walk to a full day, depending on the location of the family you are following.

When you finally encounter the gorillas, you’ll have the rare privilege of spending up to one magical hour in their presence. Just a few meters away, you’ll quietly observe them as they feed, play, and interact under the watchful eye of the dominant silverback.

Later in the afternoon, you’ll return to your lodge, where the evening can be spent reflecting on this once-in-a-lifetime encounter with Uganda’s majestic mountain gorillas.

With Wildhorn Africa, you’ll spend today exploring the stunning Lake Mutanda, as well as the nearby lakes and the majestic Virunga Volcanoes.

One experience we highly recommend is the Batwa cultural encounter — a captivating full-day excursion where you’ll hike through the forest with a Batwa guide and gain insight into the history, traditions, and way of life of the Batwa pygmies, the original inhabitants of the Bwindi Forest for centuries.
