This game drive is always rewarding with several savannah encounters like herds of elephants, buffaloes, baboons, waterbuck, giant forest hog, leopards, lions and hyenas and several bird species flying and perching on thickets.

After lunch at the lodge, you will head to the jetty for an afternoon boat ride on the Kazinga channel. This is among the highlights of Uganda safaris within Queen Elizabeth Park. the launch cruise offers great chances to take pictures since the boat drifts slowly just by the shores of the channel. The Kazinga Channel supports the biggest number of Hippos in the whole of Africa, crocodiles, elephants quenching their thirst, buffaloes and thousands of bird life that flourish on the banks.
