Uganda Wildlife Conservation Education Centre (Entebbe Zoo) - A rehab center for rescued animals like lions, rhinos, and giraffes. They offer "Behind the Scenes" tours where you can get closer to the animals.

Would you like to book a private boat to any of these islands, or should I help you find a local birding guide for Mabamba?

Booking a private boat and a birding guide in the Entebbe/Buwaya area is best done through specialized local operators. Here is the information for organizing these experiences.

1. Private Boat Hire (Island & Equator Tours)

2. Local Birding Guides (Mabamba Swamp)

The most recommended guides for the Shoebill experience are highly knowledgeable locals who coordinate directly from the landing sites.

Pricing & Booking:
- Standard rates for a private 2-hour boat and guide at the Mabamba site are roughly $50–$60, plus an entrance fee of $10 per person.
- If you depart directly from Nakiwogo (Entebbe), a private 3–5 hour tour costs between $35 and $80 per person depending on the group size.

For the best birding in Mabamba, start your tour as early as possible (7:00 AM) to catch the Shoebill while it is actively hunting.

Natural Attractions in Entebbe

Entebbe, Uganda, has several natural attractions. Here are more natural attractions to explore in Entebbe, Uganda

Uganda Wildlife Education Centre Entebbe,Uganda,Africa Entebbe

While it functions primarily as a zoo, this centre is actually a world-class animal refuge that has benefited from international assistance in recent years. Most of the animals on display were once injured or were recovered from poachers and traffickers. Star attractions include chimpanzees (a good alternative to pricier Ngamba Island), southern white rhinos, lions, leopards and shoebill storks. Keep an eye out for the baby elephant wandering about too.

A variety of programs gets you closer to the animals, including chimp encounters (US$200), behind-the-scenes tours (US$70) and zookeeper for the day (adult/child US$100/50); book directly through UWEC for discounts. There are long-term volunteering opportunities and it has on-site lodging.

Zika Forest: A forest where the Zika Virus was first discovered, with insect studies and nature exploration.

Entebbe Crafts Village: A marketplace featuring local handicrafts, jewelry, and art.

Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary Entebbe,Uganda,Africa

This sanctuary in Lake Victoria is home to around 50 orphaned chimps that have been rescued from elsewhere in Uganda and are being rehabilitated as much as possible on this thickly forested island. Day trips to see the residents are superb. Plan ahead and you can join the overnight experience and a forest-walk with the chimps, who'll climb all over you. It's a 50-/90-minute speedboat or motorised canoe ride from Entebbe to get here.

Located 23 km southeast of Entebbe in Lake Victoria, Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary, or 'Chimp Island', is home to over 40 orphaned or rescued chimpanzees who are unable to return to the wild. Humans are confined to one of the 40 hectares while the chimps wander freely through the rest, emerging from the forest twice a day for feeding at 11am and 2.30pm. This coincides with visitor arrival times to the island, with viewings of the chimps via a raised platform.

While it can't compare to the experience of seeing chimps in the wild, especially due to the large electrified fence that separates chimp from human, it still makes for a worthwhile excursion to observe the animals' remarkable behaviour. Guides here are informative, and there are individual profiles for each chimp, detailing both their distinct personalities and history. There are also big monitor lizards in residence and abundant birdlife.

The island is a project of the Chimpanzee Sanctuary & Wildlife Conservation Trust, which arranges bookings for day trips and accommodation.

Rates are based on a minimum group of two, though one individual can go at a higher rate. It's cheaper with larger group sizes. The half-day trip includes entry, guide and boat transport. Two trips depart from Entebbe per day: in the morning at 9am, returning at 12.45pm, or departing at 12.45pm and returning by 4.45pm.

The CSWCT also offers an overnight experience (first night/additional nights US$539/185) in a self-contained, solar-powered safari tent. Rates include lodging, full board, transport, activities and entry, based on two guests. Check the website for add-on activities.

Arrive via speed boat (50 minutes) or motorised canoe (90 minutes) from the Entebbe dock. Those who arrive via their own transport must pay an entry fee (adult/child US$35/15).

32° East Ugandan Arts Trust Kampala, This centre for Ugandan contemporary artists includes exhibit space, a library, workspace and resource centre. It is in the process of moving to a nearby space; keep an eye out for upcoming events on its website, including its biannual Kampala Contemporary Art Festival.

Entebbe Botanical Gardens Entebbe

Entebbe Botanical Gardens: A 37-acre garden featuring stunning plants, trees, and wildlife, including monkeys and birds.

Laid out in 1898, these expansive gardens are perfect for a leisurely stroll. The highlights are its pockets of thick rainforest, which locals claim some of the original Tarzan films were made in, and excellent birdwatching with 115 species (USh10,000 per guide). You'll see plenty of monkeys, including black and white colobus, and tree squirrels too.
