Rubondo National Park

Safari Highlights:

Paddle across to Rubondo and discover a water wonderland where deserted sandy beaches nestle against a cloak of virgin forest. Watch dappled bushbuck move fleet yet silent through a maze of tamarinds, wild palms and sycamore figs.

Spot the shaggy-coated aquatic sitatunga in the papyrus swamps. Listen to the ‘voice of Africa” as a pair of magnificent fish eagles salute the sunrise with a piercing, evocative duet.

Follow the flight of irridescent birds which appear everywhere on Rubondo Island. Herons, storks and spoonbills proliferate in the swampy lake fringes, African grey parrots screech between the forest trees.

Catch the azure brilliance of a malachite kingfisher perched low on the reeds and the gorgeous flowing tail of a paradise flycatcher flitting through the lakeshore forest.

Watch the indigenous mammal species (hippo, vervet monkey, genet and mongoose) which share this protected habitat with introduced species such as chimpanzee, black and white colobus monkeys, elephant and giraffe.

Come across Lake Victoria on your boat trip to Rubondo Island. Activities here include walking safaris, boat excursions, sport fishing and chimpanzee treks. Plans for canoe trips are in hand.

Luxuriate at the tented camp or sleep at the park bandas.
