Kampala, Entebbe, Reptile Village, Murchison Falls and Lake Bunyonyi, Uganda, 2016
A report on our travels in Uganda. We started out with a walking tour of Kampala. I highly recommend this 3 or 6 hour walk which is lead by Zulaika -
In Murchison Falls National Park is located on east and west sides of the Nile river. On the east side it's a rain forest and on the west it's more of a savanna. While at the Murchison Falls we saw a variety of wild animals. Hippos, crocodiles, baboons, elephants, jumping monkeys, monitor lizards and various bugs.
After the falls we returned to Kampala. After a day we took a Post Office bus to Kabale in the south west of Uganda. From Kabale we went to a crater Lake Bunyonyi that is over one mile above see level. The depth of the lake reaches 900 meters (over 2700 feet). Locals who live around the lake get around by canoes that are extremely hard to maneuver. People were very friendly and kids never missed an opportunity to practice their English.
We returned to Kampala and immediately left for Entebbe. We stopped by the Botanical Gardens where the original black and white Tarzan was filmed. In the morning on the day of our flights we visited the Reptile Village. Monitor lizards, crocodiles and chameleons were within reach.
Some of the things we didn't do was mountain and silver back gorilla tracking and chimpanzee tracking.
Overall, Uganda made a great impression on both of us. I highly recommend visiting this amazing country. We are definitely planing to return.

Again we would like to take this opportunity to thank Red Chilli Hideaway, for the wonderful trip and specialty Mr Hassan Nsubuga, our driver, ranger, organizer and friend! Thank you!
Our trip to Uganda took 10 days, and I'm sure I'll never forget it. On the top of the cake was the company of two of my sons, Marta and João, since Joana couldn't come due to her busy work agenda. Finally a great thanks to Carlos, long time true friend who, with Red Chilli Hideaway have designed the trip.
This is the second video of a serie of video I'll produce, and I pretend to give you a quick feel of this wonderful and friendly country, UGANDA!
Most tourists who come to Uganda visit more than one destination. You can combine your Queen Elizabeth safari with gorilla trekking safaris in Bwindi, or tour Murchison Falls National Park. For relaxation after your wildlife safari, you can visit Ssese Islands but if you are more interested in adventure, take on rafting on the nile, chimpanzee trekking in Kibale, Rwenzori Mountains climbing and Mount elgon hike.
Queen Elizabeth National Park occupies an estimated 1,978 square kilometres (764 sq mi). The park extends from Lake George in the north-east to Lake Edward in the south-west and includes the Kazinga Channel connecting the two lakes.
The park was founded in 1952 as Kazinga National Park. It was renamed two years later to commemorate a visit by Queen Elizabeth II.
Queen Elizabeth National Park is known for its wildlife, including Cape buffaloes, hippopotami, crocodiles, elephants, leopards, lions, and chimpanzees. It is home to 95 mammal species and over 500 species of birds. The area around Ishasha in Rukungiri District is famous for its tree-climbing lions, whose males sport black manes. Poachers killed six elephants in the park in 2015, triggering both anger and frustration within the Ugandan conservation community.
The park is also famous for its volcanic features, including volcanic cones and deep craters, many with crater lakes, such as the Katwe craters, from which salt is extracted.
Services in the park include a telecenter run by Conservation Through Public Health and the Uganda Wildlife Authority, neighboring the Queen's Pavilion, park lodges, game and scenic drives, and boat launches.

Howzit Uganda - Vlog 4
Hey Fam!!
This was one of my favourite days of the whole trip. Personally not my favourite edit as I didn't get as much content as I would have liked. That just means I was living in the moment and forgot to capture some stuff. Safe to say it was an incredible experience and one that I won't forget!!
FYI - In the video James talks about how we were not allowed to go off the road. We had paid for a lion tracking day where we were allowed to go off-road and find lions but our guide had to try and move lions who ventured too close to a village and were threatened to be poisoned. So this ranger gave us an impromptu guide off-road instead. We would never do anything that we thought would jeopardise the animals well being!

Uganda & Rwanda: Kampala, rafting the Nile, mountain gorillas, and Kigali (2019)
Navigating the hustle and bustle of urban Kampala - the epitome of East Africa's population explosion.
Grade 5 whitewater rafting on the white Nile - the most extreme rapids a non-professional can go on.
Trekking with mountain gorillas in their natural habitat - only 1,000 left in the world, all are only found in this region (border of Uganda, Rwanda, and the DR Congo), and can only be seen in the wild as they cannot be kept in captivity. Exploring Rwanda's capital, Kigali - incredibly clean and much more modern than most may think. No wonder they call it the 'Singapore of Africa'. Then had a lay-over in actual Singapore on the way back.
Tips:
East Africa:
-bring plenty of USD, tours and hotels give discounts
-there's security checkpoints everywhere (malls, hotels etc)
-powerbanks, mosquito repellent
-be prepared to do your own laundry
-need Yellow Fever vaccination certificate to get in/out of many countries
Kampala:
-get around on SafeBoda motorbike taxis (don't even need to download app just flag them down)
-central/Gadafi mosque for good view of city
-Bahai temple worth visit (only 7 in world), don't let you take photos/videos though
-walk around old Kampala in morning, try 'rolex with 2 eggs' for breakfast
-The Lawns Wild Game BBQ restaurant for all sorts of game meat
-Acacia mall for modern shopping needs
Rafting on Jinja:
-highly highly recommend grade 5 full day extreme rafting at
-So well organised and beyond the adrenalin, the Nile scenery is stunning
-bring sunscreen with you - there's another boat where they'll store it for you
-actually, wear long sleeves as you get sun burned so much
-water is slow on many parts of the Nile so expect lots of rowing!
Gorilla tour in Bwindi Impenetrable national park:
-went with Monkey Adventures ($1.3k USD) for 3 day tour (day 1 mostly drive from Kampala to Bwindi area, day 2 gorilla trek, day 3 Bunyonyi lake and drive back)
-I arranged to get driven to Kigali (quite close to Kabale, near gorilla area) instead of back to Kampala
-wear gum boots, bring rain coat
-there's chance you won't get to see gorillas, in that case they offer you to come back next day for free so keep next day free just in case
Kigali:
-get around on motorbike taxis, very safe and they quote fair price. city is small so good to walk too
-start with genocide memorial, makes you appreciate how fast and far the country has transformed since
-rooftop bar on top of Ubumwe Grand Hotel
-Shokola storytellers cafe behind Kigali library
-convention centre nice in early evening
-try fish tacos at The Hut
