The area is considered one of only a few places in Uganda with a higher chance of spotting the prehistoric shoebill stork. It’s fascinating to watch this bird in its natural setting. It may stand absolutely still for a long time awaiting its prey’s movements and then suddenly strike with a marvelous speed. From Mabamba, we shall return for lunch and thereafter, embark on a transfer (not so long) that will see us overnight in Jinja—a city famous as the historical source of the Nile River.

If you’re adventurous, what better way to start your safari than to experience this most exciting, exhilarating adventure on the Nile firsthand?
Get wet! Get wild! Get rafting! In fact, no experience is required to undertake this unforgettable adventure on the Nile (140$). But if you’re scared of the rapids, you can consider Kayaking and exploring the Nile on its calm waters (30$). If being in the water is not your thing, let’s go quad biking (125$) or mountain biking (30$) and have fun in the countryside. After all, the fun is in Jinja, we shall transfer to the Sipi Area—Kapchorwa. Check in and spend the evening at leisure.
