Uganda is special because it has lots of different animals in a small area. In the southwest, there are gorillas and chimpanzees. Also, there are three safari parks where you can see animals like elephants, giraffes, lions, and more.
In the southwest part of Uganda, there are three safari parks: Queen Elizabeth National Park, Lake Mburo National Park, and Semliki Valley.
These parks are often visited together with gorilla trekking in Bwindi or Mgahinga and/or chimpanzee trekking in Kibale Forest. You can reach them with just a few hours' drive, which makes them very popular choices. Outside of the southwest, there are two more safari parks: Murchison Falls National Park and Kidepo Valley National Park.
Kidepo is in the far north of the country and is usually included in longer trips. Murchison Falls is considered one of the top safari destinations in Uganda and is often combined with the parks in the southwest.

christinebY8275BCSeptember 25, 2023Queen Elizabeth Park Violet and her Team at Afrika Panthera Safaris arranged our brief but very memorable trip to Queen Elizabeth National Park. Having a female Game Guide was refreshing. The trip was very well organised and our guide made certain we got the best of our game drives. I highly recommend Afrika Panthera Safaris.Verified

lotApril 25, 2023Super experience When hearing that I was a budget traveler, Afrika Panthere Safaris suggested some budget friendly tour options with them. I ended up doing the Fort Portal walking tour and a visit to the Amabeere caves & crater lakes. The guides were very sweet and informative. I had two amazing experiences & would definitely recommend 🙂 (also I loved that that the organisation was mostly run by women!)Verified

Philippina123January 31, 2023A beautiful day in the magnificent Rwenzori and Fort Portal landscape. I spent a wonderful, eventful day. Since I was looking for a 1 day tour in Fort Portal and I wanted to visit Semuliki National Park, I chose Panthera Safaris. It was great. The communication went perfect via WhatsApp and I got all important information. Having a female tour guide was good. Fauzia is a fantastic tour guide who loves her job. The departure was on time at 7:00 am and the driver took us safely through the beautiful Rwenzori landscape. It was fantastic and I still think back to that wonderful day.Verified
Isaac EDecember 28, 2022Thank you Afrika Panthera safaris We had an unforgettable experience with Afrika Panthera safaris to visit queen Elizabeth national park and kazinga channel. From the planing phase, violet was helpful with putting a package together. Our driver Johnson was amazing, on time and polite. The guides in the park(Yunus) and the cruise on the kazinga Channel(Lubega) were highly knowledgeable, polite and made us feel like we’ve known them for long. As a local tourist, I got to learn about my country more and experience the wilderness of the pearl of Africa It was an excellent trip to end and excellent holiday season with family. Highly recommend using Afrika Panthera Safaris for your next safariVerified
Morten HSeptember 10, 2022Safari i Queen Elizabeth N.P, ved Lake Mburo og ved Murchinson Falls. Fantastisk tur. Kan varmt anbefales Vi er en familie på 5 som var på en 3 ugers ferie i Uganda i juli 2022. Havde hos Afrika Panthera hjemmefra bestilt dels en 1-dags Chimpanse-tur, Kibale National Parl og dels en 5 nætter/6 dages safari/rundtur til Queen Elizabeth Nat. Park (1 nat ved Bush Lodge), Lake Mburo Nat. Park (2 nætter ved Mpogo Safari Lodge) og Murchinson Falls Nat. park (2 nætter ved Bwana Tembo Safari Camp). Det var nogle helt fantastiske dage. Alt klappede. Meget velvalgte lodges. Og så var chauffør og guide virkelig en fornøjelse at møde. KanVerified
Jens VirtusSeptember 7, 2022Interesting and comfortable This was my second time doing a safari with Panthera. Like my first time we went to Queen Elizabeth NP, Mburo NP and Murchinson Falls NP. We managed to see all the animals. Our guide was very good at spotting them and showing them to us. The lodges we stayed in were also very nice. The food provided there always had a vegetarian option, which we needed for our group, so that was perfect. And the rooms were all very clean and comfortable.
