Elephants took all my attention. You know elephants are a special part of our ecosystem, playing their role along with all the animals of the wild.

The park is very big with a vast number of both animal and bird species. It houses different crater lakes and tree-climbing lions that are satisfying to watch.It has access roads and hotels as well as lodges for those who would like to relax in the wilderness.

Incredible place. Started off viewing several kinds of animals enroute to the park from elephants, cheetahs, antelopes etc.Then inside the park is a must see. No writing here can describe the experience, but to sum it up, an elephant charged at us for trying to cross the road.

Possibly the biggest let down in Africa. Hardly any animals, bribes to be paid to see the lions as they are off the main safari trails. A full day safari and we only saw 3 lions and lots of Kob. Thats it. I would definitely save my money and spot wildlife from the roadsides. There are no zebra, rhino, or giraffe in this park. Dont let the pictures fool you. We left very disappointed and felt ripped off as the bribes give you only enough time to take a few pictures and no time to enjoy the very few animals you will see.

Its the only park in the world where you will find Tree Climbing Lions.Currently its the only Park in Uganda where you can have Night Safari As Well.Also you can have water safari to watch Elephants and Hippos.Here you can rarely see Crocodile because Crocodiles are majorly seen at Murchison Falls national park.I mostly enjoyed the Night Safari with Rain it was too adventures. You will have a Guard with Gun during Night Safari and Halogen Lamp so that you can watch Animals in Night also.

Would recommend to skip this park in Uganda. A lot less animals compared to Murchison and probably Kidepo (we did not actually visit kidepo though). Boat ride is nice though with lots of hippos and birds and very few crocodile (s). But Murchison also has a boat ride that is better. Driving safari we went 2 times on the kisenyi plains, for a guided day and evening drive. There were relatively small groups of kobs, some buffalos and there should be quite a few elephants. No giraffes, zebras in this park. Roads are all very flat, so would be easy to drive yourself here.

We visited Queen Elizabeth National Park in evening session with very humble and co operative guide. It is a very big park with animals like lions, leopards, elephants, antelopes, buffaloes, hippos and 600+ species of birds. You can have a pleasant boat ride in Kalinga chhanel where you can find hundreds of birds on the banks. It is worth to visit Queen Elizabeth National Park.

Road side story: So we do not go into park but every time we do a public road (Between Kasesse to Kisoro), we see so many of elephants and baboons. Amazing elephants families walking across the road especially later part of afternoon or early morning is breathtaking experience ‼︎ Water buffaloes and many others you can just see from the road side. Love this road.

Queen Elizabeth National Park is known for its wildlife, including African buffalo, Ugandan kob, hippopotamus, giant forest hog, warthog, Nile crocodile, African bush elephant, African leopard, lion, and chimpanzee. It is home to 95 mammal species and over 500 bird species. The area around Ishasha in Rukungiri District is famous for its tree-climbing lions, whose males sport black manes.[6] Poachers killed six elephants in the park in 2015, triggering both anger and frustration within

Pay a visitQUEEN ELIZABETH NATIONAL PARKPARK AT A GLANCESize: 1,978km².Queen Elizabeth spans the equator line; monuments on either side of the road mark the exact spot where it crosses latitude 00.The park was founded in 1952 as Kazinga National Park, and renamed two years later to commemorate a visit by Queen Elizabeth II.The park is home to over 95 mammal species and over 600 bird species.The Katwe explosion craters mark the parks highest point at 1,350m above sea level, while the lowest point is at 910m, at Lake Edward.Queen Elizabeth National Park is understandably Uganda’s most popular tourist destination. The park’s diverse ecosystems, which include sprawling savanna, shady, humid forests, sparkling lakes and fertile wetlands, make it the ideal habitat for classic big game, ten primate species including chimpanzees and over 600 species of birds.Set against the backdrop of the jagged Rwenzori Mountains, the park’s magnificent vistas include dozens of enormous craters carved dramatically into rolling green hills, panoramic views of the Kazinga Channel with its banks lined with hippos, buffalo and elephants, and the endless Ishasha plains, whose fig trees hide lions ready to pounce on herds of unsuspecting Uganda kob.As well as its outstanding wildlife attractions, Queen Elizabeth National Park has a fascinating cultural history. There are many opportunities for visitors to meet the local communities and enjoy storytelling, dance, music and more. The gazetting of the park has ensured the conservation of its ecosystems, which in turn benefits the surrounding communities.Uganda’s Queen Elizabeth National Park is truly a Medley of Wonders!

A place where you can see diversified african wildlife. There are lions (we were not lucky enough to spot one), antelopes, elephant (they are so giant!), baboons, ugandan kobs, pumba, hippos, bush pigs and several kind of birds. It will be the best view if you start you safari early in the morning.

No giraffes, zebras, rhinos. Very few lions and leopards. We saw many elephants and buffalos, a few hippos, and a tail of a sleeping lion in the bushes. All who’ve been to other safaris can attest that this is one of the more empty safaris they’ve visited.The Kazinga channel is the highlight of the park; don’t miss it!Come to Uganda for the chimpanzee and gorilla trekking; QENP is a bonus side trip but don’t bank on seeing anything more than 3 out of the big 5.

What a beautiful place. You can enjoy the savannah here. Go on a safari and watch all the local wildlife. It can get extremely hot at noon so do bring a hat and use a sun screen. Prices are acceptable, not very high. Lions, gazelles, hippos, baboons crocodiles etc plus a lot of birds can be seen here. Definitely worth a visit if you want to see the flora and fauna of East Africa.

Africa is the best place for wildlife experience. The best part is that the wild animals are not kept in cages but are left in the open. They get to prey on the other animals, which actually is the natural phenomena, so naturally. This National Park is very much appreciated by the tourists for being the best. Amazing views of all the wild beasts. Lions residing on trees. Caught up with the video of the lions climbing and getting down of the trees like the Spiderman, never seen before, the Cheetahs do it but not Lions. Huge park, Lovely views of this park, great place.

Irungu Forest Safari Lodge was our Operator and Innocent was our guide. I personally wouldn’t go father from this recommendation as Innocent used to be a park warden, he knows the wardens and can get insider information of locations of animals.

Had a very unbeatable experience at the park. Started with breakfast at the Meet Safari Lodge located just inside the park. Went on a boat ride across the Kazinga Channel that connects Lakes Edward and George. Went for a park drive viewing the different species of wild plants and animals. Took off time to visit the Katwe Salt Lake which is also located in the park. It is a nice place for vacation, honeymoon and weekend get away with friends and family. Big up to the hospitable waiters and waitresses at the Mweya Safari Lodge who served us with love and care. The lodge also offers accommodation basing on the package you choose.

One of the best national park and safari. Its almost in the border to DR Congo.Balloon safari is also available here. But not that much Worthy. Early hours safari in vehicle is good choice , try to start at 5AM. Did get chance to see pair of lion in the early morning. There are a lot of volcano available near the place, try to visit there also. In 4-5 hours of game complete park can be captured.
