Overview

  • Just a short drive from Entebbe town, the Mabamba Swamp offers one of the world’s best chances to see the rare and iconic shoebill stork in its natural habitat. Glide through papyrus channels on a canoe as you spot this prehistoric-looking bird alongside over 300 other species, from colorful kingfishers to the elusive papyrus gonolek. More than just birding, the tour supports community conservation and offers a peaceful escape into Uganda’s wetlands.

    A must-do for bird lovers, photographers, and anyone seeking a unique wildlife experience while on the Uganda Safari. This Tour is also ideal for those who have limited time in Uganda or Entebbe because you only need a maximum of 5 hours for you to be able to enjoy this Mabamba Shoebill tour on lake Victoria in Entebbe, Uganda

    In addition to the most sought-after Shoebill Stork, the other bird species to expect Blue swallow, Pallid harrier, Papyrus Gonolek, and so many others to look out for!
