About this tour

Let’s delve into the captivating world of Kidepo Valley National Park, a hidden gem nestled in the wild frontier of Uganda.

Kidepo Valley National Park, Where Wilderness Meets Culture.

Kidepo Valley National Park sprawls across 1,442 square kilometers in the Karamoja region of northeastern Uganda. Picture rugged savannahs, dramatic valleys, and the imposing Mount Morungole (standing tall at 2,750 meters). The park is crisscrossed by the Kidepo and Narus rivers.

Expect Immense Wildlife:

Kidepo boasts an impressive biodiversity: over 75 species of mammals call it home. Imagine encountering lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, and cheetahs against this stunning backdrop. Bird enthusiasts rejoice—there are 470 bird species flitting about, making it a paradise for twitchers.

Dive deep into Culture:

Beyond wildlife, Kidepo offers a chance to connect with local tribes. Meet the Karamojong people, known for their distinctive culture and way of life. Explore their traditions, dances, and unique attire—it’s a cultural immersion like no other.

Hold on these things:

Game Drives: Rise early for thrilling game drives—the golden hour is when the savannah comes alive.

Nature Walks: Wander through lush greenery, spot wildlife, and perhaps stumble upon the Kanangorok Hot Springs.

Birdwatching: Binoculars ready! Kidepo’s avian diversity won’t disappoint.

Cultural Tours: Engage with local communities and learn their stories.

Check in the bush: Choose from exceptional lodges like Apoka Safari Lodge, Kidepo Savannah Lodge, or Nga’Moru Wilderness Camp. Imagine sipping coffee while gazing at the vast Savannah grasslands—pure bliss.

Climate and Weather: Kidepo’s semi-arid climate means average annual temperatures of 29°C (with occasional spikes to 40°C). Rainfall occurs mainly from April to September, but it’s erratic and sparse. Sandy soils and low plant nutrients shape the unique vegetation patterns here.

The worth: Kidepo Valley National Park remains a well-kept secret, yet it’s named the 3rd best national park in Africa. It’s a place where untamed beauty meets authentic experiences. So, pack your safari hat, bring your curiosity, and let Kidepo weave its magic.
