The two-hour Lake Mburo night game drive in Lake Mburo National Park will give you one of the best lifetime safari experiences in Africa. You will drive along in the park in search of some nocturnal animals such as leopards, bush babies, porcupines, and the rest of the animals which do hunt for their meals beyond the sunset.
Lake Mburo night game drive normally lasts for 2 to 3 hours and starts normally at 7:00 pm. You will later head back to your lodge for dinner.
During your night game drive safari, you are also able to spot some antelopes and diurnal mammals that are still winding up their evening. You will see them shift as they move around to look for where they can rest for the night.
On your lucky day, you may come across leopards hunting or busy on a kill.
More About Lake Mburo National Park and Night Game Drive
Lake Mburo is underlain by ancient Precambrian metamorphic rocks, and sculptured landscapes, with rolling hills that date back more than 500 million years. It contains an extensive wetland area that harbors several species of mammals and birds, found nowhere else in Uganda.
The 370 sqkm park is an increasingly common stop on the safari circuit for visitors traveling to western Uganda or for clients who would wish for a one-day tour from Kampala. This is because the park is just a short distance away from Kampala so it can easily be accessed to carry out a variety of park activities.
You may also journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Uganda from Kampala to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home to mountain gorillas, for gorilla trekking in Uganda. Uganda is home to incredible wildlife in Africa.
You can make an extension to visit Bwindi Forest on a budget gorilla safari to encounter the mountain gorillas. For those that wish to see mountain gorillas in Rwanda, visit Volcanoes National Park, which is famous for gorillas and golden monkeys.
