Luxury Overnight Safari Around Jinja

This safari leaves from our property and treks approximately 15km down river to The Haven Riverside Lodge. We pass through local villages, areas of crops and jungle where you will see spectacular bird life, hopefully some monkeys, and if you are really lucky some of the more elusive animals, like mongoose and water moniters. There is also the opportunity to take your horse swimming in the Nile at a beautiful sandy bottomed bay if you are so inclined. You and the horse(s) stay overnight at the Haven, your luggage will be waiting for you when you arrive.

Take an afternoon fishing trip, a sunset cruise or just relax with a book while overlooking one of the biggest rapids on the Nile.

After a big breakfast next morning we set off on the return journey. We trek an alternate route on the way back through Mabira forest, sugar and tea plantations and over some spectacular views on top of the mountains overlooking the Nile valley.

We ensure all your luggage is transported to and from the lodge by car leaving you unencumbered to enjoy your ride. We also provide secure overnight parking for your vehicle.

Please Note:
We do require experienced riders for this safari as the route encompasses swamps, creek crossings and jungle riding. You need to be able to canter for extended periods and be competent riding in English style saddles. You will be in the saddle for roughly 8-10 hours (36 km) in total over your trip.

VERY IMPORTANT
We do not use Western saddles as often used in North and South America!
