Overview
Spend a couple of romantic nights at the source of the Nile River in Jinja, at one of the most luxurious safari lodges in the region, and walk in the footsteps of great explorers like Hannington Speke.
Check-in at a forest cottage on the edge of the Kibale rainforest and get a chance to walk with fascinating chimpanzee bands in their natural cradle.
Fly across the intriguing rugged landscape to the Bwindi Impenetrable National. Spend three safari honeymoon nights in a romantic forest cottage with out-of-this-world views that will make you fall deeply in love.
Get off the beaten track and explore the exotic rural region on foot. Peddle across the volcano waters of Lake Mutanda with fishermen in traditional dugout canoes. Meet the Batwa forest people on a time-lapse cultural forest trail.
Track the mysterious mountain gorillas, spend an hour close to them, and watch their antics and complex social behaviors. This jungle experience occurs in an ancient UNESCO World Heritage Site, Uganda’s last stronghold of almost half of the endangered mountain gorillas.
The 10-day Africa safari honeymoon takes you to a luxurious riparian cottage on the banks of the thunderous Nile River in eastern Uganda for a couple of nights before whisking you off to the primate capital at the base of the mighty Rwenzori’s for an exhilarating chimpanzee trekking excursion. You’ll spend two nights on the edge of the chimpanzee jungle and later connect to the impenetrable forest of Bwindi with a short domestic flight.
In the extreme southwestern corner, you’ll spend 3 nights at the idyllic forest cottage with breathtaking landscape views straight out of the National Geography magazine. From there, you’ll meet the romantic silverback with his family in their natural cradle and spend unforgettable moments interacting and observing the great apes.
