Tour Overview
Uganda is all about its friendly people and the diversity in landscapes and activities. This 3-days safari adventure will show you the best of what Kidepo Valley National Park has to offer. Kidepo Valley National park is one of Africa’s most magnificent wildernesses, big game favourite elephant, giraffe, zebra, eland, lion, hyena and cheetah and perhaps Africa’s largest single herd of buffalo and species that are rare or absent from other Ugandan protected areas such as bat-eared fox, cheetah, striped hyena and ostrich. Its isolation means that Kidepo is little visited and visitors can expect to enjoy a high degree of solitude. This safari is designed to balance the two elements of relaxation and time in the wilderness. You will get to see and learn about the wildlife, the local people as you enjoy the stunning landscapes that earned Uganda the perfect description-nickname – The Pearl Of Africa. This safari adventure takes the most liked route for exploring Kidepo Valley National Park. Many tourists chose a trip similar to this – with adjustments such that they can see all these highlights on their 03-Days Kidepo Valley National Park Safari Adventure. You will overnight in the best budget or mid-range or luxury accommodations Kidepo Valley National Park has to offer.
