These one-of-a-kind experiences are not part of most safaris in Uganda.
Experiential Activities such as the Lion Tracking Research Project with the Uganda Carnivore Research Project on the Kasenyi Plains in the northern sector of the park, or the Banded Mongoose Research project on the Mweya Peninsula.
There are also two more experiential activities, such as the Hippo Census, which takes place every two years, and the Bird Counting in the park, where there are well over 620 species. When these two activities are ongoing, we will list them in detail. Presently, they are seasonal.

Experiential Safari Activities in the Park – Our Take:
African Travelers in the 21st Century are looking beyond canned tours but for experiences beyond the everyday norm of safari tours. Some of the Experiential Safari Activities in Queen Elizabeth Park meet their criteria.
As a Safari Tour Company in Uganda, we are always looking for those unique add-ons to a Safari for our clients.
The Lion Tracking Research Project has received high accolades from our clients, and so has the Banded Mongoose Project.
For Experiential Lodging, we recommend the upmarket and intimate Kasenyi Safari Camp, more than a place to rest your head, but an experience in the African Wilderness.
Let us know which Experiential Safari Activity you like to include in your Safari with us. Other research projects, such as the hippo count and bird census, do not take place daily, making it harder to schedule into an itinerary.
