Our guide Paul just came back from a safari with an Israeli family who had a great adventure here in the Pearl of Africa. During their stay they went rafting on the Nile, went looking for lions in Queen Elizabeth NP, took the boat-cruise on Kazinga channel seeing animals on the shores, trekked the mountain gorillas and looked for zebras in Lake Mbur NP. They have sent us some pictures so you can get a taste of what a safari adventure in Uganda can be like!
