Itinerary

Day 1

Day 1
After early breakfast, you will be picked up from your Hotel and depart by road for Semliki Wildlife Reserve situated in the basin of the Western Rift Valley. This scenic drive takes approx 6-7 hours and will take you down the eastern side of Lake Albert. You will go on a night drive as the Reserve is the only place in Uganda where you can do a spot lit night drive with sights of big cats, the diminutive genet and serval cats. Chimps exist next to elephant, lion, buffalo, nocturnal dwellers such as the white tailed mongoose and slender mongoose, standard and pennant winged nightjars depending on the time of year. There are always surprises on the night drives.

Day 2

Day 2
An early morning game drive will give you a different perspective on the park and animals in it. Return to the Lodge for a late, but leisurely breakfast. After breakfast climb aboard the vehicle with a packed lunch for a boat trip on Lake Albert to see the incredible and rare Shoebill, visually a cross between a dodo and a dinosaur. The lake which provide a great picnic spot, and several fishing villages along the way, virtually untouched by the ‘western world'. The lake is superb. There are sand cliffs where brightly colored colonies of red-throated bee-eaters dart in and out of their burrows, there are waterfalls several kilometers up.
Drive back to the Lodge through the acacia savannah, with a view of different species of raptors and passerines.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
