Depart
early for Queen Elizabeth National Park
driving west of the capital, with a stop
over at the equator for pictures. This journey
takes you through the volcanic formations
of the western rift valley.
In the evening, take a boat trip on the
Kazinga channel connecting Lakes Edward
and George. This trip takes you possibly
through the highest concentration of hippos
in Africa and many other animals may bee
seen drinking at the waters edge. This trip
offers a good opportunity for photography
and filming, bird watching and game viewing.

Early
morning entry to the gorilla sanctuary for
gorilla tracking. The rain forest is spectacular.
The land scape is steep and forested yet
very dense. It is however criss-crossed
by numerous animal trails hence allowing
easy access to tourists. The time taken
and the terrain vary according to the movement
of the gorillas.
Coming face to face with the gorillas may
take as little as half an hour as much as
8-9 hours. The thrill of spending time to
observe these shy animals is rare, moving
awesome and very exciting. To watch and
photograph the gorillas as they interact
is an unforgettable experience.
