    Great Trip!

    We were picked up from Kampala for an unforgettable safari adventure. Richard was a fantastic guide—professional, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the trip. The food exceeded our expectations, with delicious and well-prepared meals at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The accommodation was lovely, comfortable, and conveniently close to Queen Elizabeth National Park, which made our game drives easy and enjoyable. We spent time eagerly waiting to spot a lion, which added to the excitement and anticipation of the safari. Overall, it was a well-organized and memorable experience. Highly recommend this safari and Richard as a guide!

    Response from the operator: Thank you Carr for this wonderful compliment and we are so honored that our Guide/CEO Richard Davids made your safari super unforgettable.. He told us you were amazing clients and he enjoyed his little time with you so much and we hope as you come back to volunteer you will enjoy more trips together..

    Queen Elizabeth NP-

    Traveling solo can be daunting,but this small group tour made me feel part of a family.The group was just the right size - enough to make friends but still intimate. Gorilla tracking was , of course,the crown jewel. But I was also blown away by the boat cruise in Queen Elizabeth NP- elephants,buffaloes , and crocodiles galore! The chimp tracking in Kibale was fast -paced but thrilling. Meals were delicious, especially the fresh fruits and chapati. It really a nice ,highly recommend

    Queen Elizabeth National Park is a must

    This wasn't just a safari -it was the most engaging outdoor classroom I've ever been in ! Over 2 days in Uganda .I not only saw an array of amazing animals but learned so much about them and their habitats thanks to our Incredible guide Herman . Every day brought new lessons in nature.The conservation aspect of this safari was really inspiring too. Our guide also explained animal behaviors on game drives in Queen Elizabeth. I loved learning how to read elephant body language .I highly do recommend

    2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.

    How much does 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,350 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kampala usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kampala is not rushed.

    Is 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 57 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kampala, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise?

    +

    Around 20 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kampala can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kampala and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kampala within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kampala?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kampala experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampala’s Best Experience walking tour, Kampala Walking City Tours (Women-Guided), Kampala Heart of Walking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kampala?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kampala?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 2 Days Safari To Queen Elizabeth National Park with Cruise?

    +
