Savanna Birding holiday in Uganda

Grey Headed Kingfisher

This holiday package is specifically designed to fit eco-travelers who would wish to enjoy leisurely game and bird watching drives in Uganda’s untamed savanna parks including the incredible Murchison Falls National Park, Queen Elizabeth and Lake Mburo National Park. The expedition is intended to give an opportunity to versatile birders, combining birding with other natural history or cultural interests like scenery viewing, nature photography, big game viewing, etc. The intent of this holiday is to give a chance to groups that would need plenty of time to absorb a site's natural history and bird life at a more relaxed pace. Most of the accommodation will involve holiday camping.
