Discover the beautiful lakes & rivers of Uganda

Welcome to the beautiful waters of Uganda!

Uganda, famously known as “The Pearl of Africa”, is blessed with a wealth of natural wonders — and its lakes and the mighty River Nile are among the most breathtaking. These waters are not only stunning to behold, but they are also lifelines for wildlife, local communities, and adventure seekers. With Uganda Horizon Safaris, you can explore them up close.

Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest lake and the source of the River Nile in Jinja, offers spectacular boat trips, island escapes to the Ssese Islands. Lake Bunyonyi, often called “the lake of a thousand islands,” is perfect for relaxation, canoeing, and birdwatching. Lake Mutanda offers serene beauty near the gorilla trekking trails of Bwindi, while Lake Albert, Lake Edward, and Lake George brim with hippos, crocodiles, and scenic shores.

The River Nile, flowing from Jinja through Murchison Falls National Park, is a hub for adventure. Experience the thrill of white-water rafting, enjoy a peaceful sunset cruise, or witness the Nile’s dramatic power at Murchison Falls, where the river squeezes through a narrow gorge before plunging into the depths below.
