Eastern waterfalls, coffee country, and remote Kidepo savanna are paced as one hosted road journey with meal stops built in. 📋 Key Details Duration: 6 days / 5 nights Group size: 1 traveller Meeting point: Entebbe International Airport (Kampala hotel pickup available) Highlights: Sezibwa Falls, Mabira Forest, Sipi Falls, Kidepo game drives Vehicle: Guided 4x4 safari transport 🗺️ What to Expect This route circles eastern and northern Uganda in six days from Jinja and the Nile source through Sipi Falls and a community coffee walk to remote Kidepo Valley National Park, one of Africa's most dramatic wilderness areas. Coffee walks and Kidepo drives are previewed with expected walking minutes and sun exposure on open savanna. Coffee community walks and Kidepo game loops use different footwear; your host reminds you which day needs boots versus trainers. Cooler northern mornings reward a fleece on open savanna drives. 📍 Location Jinja sits where the Nile leaves Lake Victoria, while Sipi Falls drops through Kapchorwa District with views toward Karamoja plains. Kidepo Valley National Park in the far northeast offers open savanna, rocky outcrops, and over 70 mammal species plus rich birdlife. Eastern highway legs via Jinja and Sipi lead north to Kidepo with crater viewpoints and village coffee trails. Scenic stops and comfort breaks are built into longer sealed and park-road transfers on this route. ✅ Prerequisites Sipi Falls trekking involves several hours on steep foothill paths; Kidepo drives use long road days with early starts. A reasonable fitness level helps, but no prior safari experience is required. Coffee walks on Sipi slopes and long northern drives to Kidepo use uneven paths and hot savanna hours. Hydration, sun protection, and a steady walking pace matter more than speed on village trails. ⭐ Why Choose Us Locally based driver-guides lead safaris across Uganda and neighbouring East Africa, combining safe 4x4 travel with strong field knowledge of wildlife, parks, and local communities. They brief you on trekking pace, park rules, and daily timing while staying with you from arrival through to your final transfer. Remote northern parks and scenic stops such as Sipi Falls or Jinja are linked in one road loop with realistic drive times and lodge… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included All internal airport transfers on the tour All meals Fully guided safari in a 4x4 vehicle All accommodations listed in the itinerary All permits and park entry fees Ground transport between Jinja, Sipi, and Kidepo ### What’s not included Laundry services International flights Visa fees Souvenirs Tips and gratuities Transport to and from the meeting point if you do not use the included airport or hotel pickup ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### How long are the driving days?
