Day 3
Murchison → Queen Elizabeth NP — Scenic Rift Valley Transfer

Private dinner at the cliff-edge terrace.
Day 4
QE — Ishasha Tree Lions + Private Kazinga Cruise

Day 5
QE → Kidepo Valley NP — Fly North (1 hour charter)
Fly from Kasese airstrip to Kidepo airstrip — Uganda's most spectacular charter flight, crossing the Rwenzori Mountains and the vast northern landscape. Arrive at Apoka Safari Lodge — the finest lodge in Kidepo, with a waterhole viewable from the terrace where elephants drink at dusk.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 'private' actually mean on this safari?
Your dedicated 4×4 vehicle is used exclusively by your group — no sharing with strangers. Your driver-guide's only client is you for the full 7 days. All activities (boat cruises, game drives, sundowners) are arranged exclusively around your schedule and preferences. Lodge meals can be served privately if preferred.
Are the lodges mentioned always available?
We work with the top lodges in each park and book based on availability for your dates. Preferred lodges: Paraa Safari Lodge or Pakuba Safari Lodge (Murchison), Mweya Safari Lodge (Queen Elizabeth), Apoka Safari Lodge (Kidepo). If a specific lodge is unavailable, we substitute with the next best option at the same standard and inform you in advance.
Is the charter flight really worth the cost?
For a 7-day luxury itinerary, absolutely yes. The flight from Entebbe to Kidepo takes 1 hour (vs 9–10 hours driving). You gain 1.5–2 full days of extra wildlife time. You arrive fresh. The aerial view of northern Uganda is stunning. Most luxury clients choose to fly at least for the Kidepo leg. We can arrange 1, 2, or 3 charter legs depending on your budget.
"Uganda's wildlife parks are among Africa's most diverse and least crowded safari destinations. From tree-climbing lions to the prehistoric Shoebill, from the world's most powerful waterfall to the Great Migration — your safari is waiting. Start your Roam Beyond payment plan today."
