Ziwa Rhino Trek
Track southern white rhinos on foot at Ziwa — the only place in Uganda you can see them in the wild.
And if nobody else books your slot, it runs as a private tour — same price.
Hosted by SteveWalking Kampala since 2018
Uganda's only wild rhinos, met on foot. Pickup at 6:00, three to four hours north, then an hour walking with a ranger among the southern white rhinos of Ziwa — often close enough to hear them graze.
Grey crowned cranes and antelope share the sanctuary. Lunch on the way, back at your hotel around 18:00.
Bring a camera, sunscreen, long trousers and a rain jacket. Entrance, lunch and transport included.
