Holiday Cruise in Uganda
Though this kind of tour is not highly carried out in Uganda and East Africa as a whole, it has of recent gained some momentum in Uganda due to the fact that this country has numerous water bodies surrounding most of the national parks. Rolling hills covered in velvety green jungle are the prelude to soaring volcanoes and shimmering tropical lakes in this beautiful pearl of Africa.
Until you experience for yourself the world-class style that distinguishes every cruising boat on all Ugandan water bodies, you can only imagine the taste of perfectly built cruise boat. Until you experience the pleasure of spending a memorable day in a water fall, then returning to a boat where all the comforts and conveniences you could wish for await you, it will remain just a dream.

Summer is on the way…
The highlight of any visit to Uganda is an encounter with the breathtaking mountain gorillas that inhabit the remote forests, whilst the lively town of Kampala is amongst Africa’s friendliest cities to visitors.
Mountain gorillas hide in the thick forests of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park, and sighting them through the trees is something never to be forgotten. You’ll track family groups of these huge primates on foot and get so close you’ll be able to hear their breathing (and your heart hammering!). But keep an eye out for the other 10 species of primate that live here, including chimpanzees, as well as giant forest hogs, leopards and the incredible variety of bird life.
Kibale National Park is home to an amazing 13 different species of primate and the rain forests here are rich and beautiful. You might spot chimpanzees and red colobus monkeys as well as small forest elephants during the day. On a nighttime walk seek out bush babies and the slow moving potto.
Lesser known, though no less beautiful, is the Queen Elizabeth National Park, offering game drives and boats cruises with opportunities to spot elephants, hippos, leopard and lions. Lake Mburo National Park is a huge area of wetlands, swamps and lakes that are home to an astonishing variety of birdlife.
