Day 1:

Leave Kampala for Kabale also dubbed the “Switzerland” of Uganda to visit lake Bunyonyi. Our drive shall take us across the equator before driving past the wildlife migration corridor of Lake Mburo national park. We will have a lunch break in Mbarara before driving through the hillside town of Kabale and finally to Lake Bunyonyi where the whole journey to the west leaves tourists wondering about the beauty of Uganda. It is a combination of wonderful views across the equator, herds of the Ankole Cattle with their extraordinary long horns, terraced hillsides and valleys and above all the refreshing atmosphere of the tranquil Lake Bunyonyi.

This is a volcanic-sunken crater lake that is strewn by many islands that are inhabited by the Bakiga, who were resettled here from Bwindi forest.

Day 3:

After breakfast this morning you have some optional extra activities that will keep you awakened for the best hours of the day. These activities range from the simple walk in the bamboo forest, the informative cultural excursion to the Batwa and the Bakiga villages. Your visitation to these communities shall be a great honor as they are pygmies who formerly lived as hunters and gatherers in the Bwindi Forest. They were eventually settled here to create some freedom for Gorillas and other wildlife in Bwindi forest. Take a boat and visit the different islands such as the punishment and the Bushara Island.
