- Mabamba Swamp - Following an early morning breakfast at a hotel in Kampala or Entebbe, a company representative, who will serve as your driver guide, will pick you up, provide a briefing about your journey, and begin the transfer to Mabamba Swamp. Located in Kasanje Sub-county, Wakiso District, approximately 50 kilometers southwest of Kampala and north of the Entebbe peninsula, this site is the most accessible location worldwide for observing the wild Shoebill Stork. The birding adventure takes place on canoes. These expansive marshlands are home to a unique ecological community of birds, animals, insects, and fish that are not found elsewhere. The shoebill thrives in the solitude of these vast marshes. You will have the chance to see the shoebill along with other papyrus specialist birds such as the Saddle-billed Stork, Malachite Kingfisher, African Jacana, and other swamp specialties. The Mabamba Swamp Birding Tour provides an opportunity to explore one of Uganda’s breathtaking swamps.
