TRIP DETAILS

Day 1: Travel to Kidepo Valley National Park

Setting off for Kidepo valley national park will be in the morning after your breakfast at the hotel you slept. Our driver guide picks you and briefs you about the trip as you commence with the journey to Africa’s true wilderness. It is a 10-hour journey filled with amazing views of Uganda’s countryside.

The journey itself is an experience that feeds your eyes with sights of the beautiful landscape along the highway. Have several stopovers for pictures and lunch. At the park you will reach in the evening to just check in at the lodge, have dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Morning game drive and the Karamojong community

In the morning after breakfast, head for a game drive through the park. Kidepo offers the best game drive experiences in Uganda because of its vast and expansive landscape.

Game drives here are ones that expose you to numerous animal species in just a few minutes of the drive. Be sure of seeing lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, warthogs, buffaloes, giraffes, waterbucks, antelopes and many others.

The drive also gives you an opportunity to view that magnificent landscape of the park with doomed mountains in the background.

In the afternoon, visit the Karamojong community for a cultural retreat. Enjoying the traditional performances and tasting their local cuisines is a guarantee except those who don’t want. It’s an evening worth spending, getting so close to the local people and seeing the world through their eyes.

Today, just have breakfast, check out of the lodge and travel back to Kampala. The journey will still feed your eyes with spectacular views of Karamoja region, Pian-Upe game reserve and Mount Elgon.
