2-Day safari to Lake Mburo National Game Park | Game Drives in Lake Mburo National Park | Short Safaris in Uganda
2 Day safari to Lake Mburo. Lake Mburo National Park is about a 3 – 4-hour drive from Kampala, making it the nearest park to the capital city of Uganda. It is the smallest among the savannah parks in Uganda, but it harbors an incredible diversity of animals and birds, has beautiful scenery, and its small size means you can reach the different parts of the park easily and discover a lot of what it can offer in a short time.
The park is great for grazing animals, and the common animals to be seen on the day safari in Lake Mburo National Park include zebras, impala, giraffes, buffaloes, warthogs, bushbucks, eland, and topi, among others.
The biggest lake in the park, Lake Mburo, is home to crocodiles, hippos, and several water birds, which can be sighted from the boat cruise.
