Queen Elizabeth National Park packs savannah, wetlands, crater lakes and forest into one spectacular area. Elephants, buffalo and hippos share the Kazinga Channel, and boat trips bring you amazingly close.
In the Ishasha sector, lions famously lounge in fig trees, which you have to see to believe.
Birders love it too, with hundreds of species and plenty of water birds.
