Queen elizabeth national park

Queen Elizabeth National Park is 1,978km wide spread along the base of the western arm of great African rift valley; an area with superior potential for tourism in Uganda.   The park has so many water bodies unevenly spread through her corners with Lakes George in the east, Edward in the west and the Kazinga Channel adjoining them the most visible prominent features.  Unmistakably, these are the exact sites to easily locate many wildlife species on safaris to Uganda putting in mind time of the day.  The high concentration of the wildlife species in this park most likely is related to reliable water bodies for their survival through the year.

Queen was formerly called Kazinga and only renamed in remembrance of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II Great Britain’s historical visit to Uganda in 1954. One leg of her Uganda safari took her to this park.  From time immemorial this park has always attracted a very big portion of travellers on safaris to Uganda because of her outstanding natural beauty. Her breathtaking natural sceneries include empty craters ringed with very attractive lush savannah vegetation This is permanent residence to more than 90 mammal species; lions, buffalos, elephants, leopards, elands, hippopotamus, giant forest hogs, topis and many other large mammals. Experienced birders have recorded in excess of 500 bird species and at Kyambura gorge visitors track chimpanzees on foot previously habituated over long periods of time. These and many others make Ugandan safari a magnet for those in search of unforgettable vacations.

Game and scenic viewings are far easy in many ways than could be imagined. Early morning and late evening game drives take you to a safari that stays with you forever. Take an afternoon launch cruise on the sparkling waters of Kazinga Channel and thirsty wildlife will just come to you to cool off in the channel.  Take on eco friendly air balloon safaris and scan the worlds under you. The choice of the herd buffalos or pride of lions to concentrate on is entirely all yours. Many others opt for ranger guided walks on marked trails and quite often bump into their preferred species. Whatever your choice, safaris to Uganda are designed to let clients get maximum rewards from their tour. Travels into Uganda are a balanced mix of relaxation, adventure and discovery. Most often visitors on tour of Uganda cannot ask for anything more.
