Definitely off the beaten track, flew into Rwanda and got a tri-country visa (Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya).
This was my 3rd visit to Kigali this year so only stayed one night and started a 7 day tour from there, we drove across the border in Uganda and to the Bwindi Impenetrable National park (over 7 hours driving) for 2 nights, this area is so rustic, beautiful and wild, limited electricity, non existent roads and zero phone internet but we got to go trekking through the park to see a wonderful family of Gorillas.
Moved from there to Queen Elizabeth National park were we could see elephants wandering around beneath our lodge, once again crazy drive of about 7 hours, some of it was on roads. Did a wonderful 6 hour safari the next day and saw lions, elephants, leopards, buffalos, gazelles, warthogs etc. In the evening did a boat trip were we say hippos, crocodiles, elephants and lots of birds.
Left there to Kibale Forrest (5 hour drive) for monkey trekking. Not as amazing as the Gorillas but great to see.
From there to Entebbe, this is were we actually found the one and only decent road :)
Beautiful country, great people, amazing lodges and scenery and only a slight risk of catching EBOLA :)
From there we moved into Kenya, for personal reasons we had to leave before touring the Masai Mara, but the other sites that we visited didn’t impress me as much as Uganda and it was much more commercialized with hotels for 200-300 people rather than 20-30.
