QUEEN ELIZABETH NATIONAL PARK 

Originally Kazinga National Park with the Kazinga channel connecting the Lakes; Edward in the south and George in the north - it was renamed Queen Elizabeth National Park after Queen Elizabeth visited Uganda in 1954. It's the most popular savanna in Uganda in part due to the opportunity to spot the elusive tree-climbing lions in Ishasha. Queen Elizabeth National Park is home to over 200 lions as the park is a conservation unit for the cats. 

The Kazinga channel within the park lends itself to some of the best water-based safari experiences. You'll be sure to spot lone male buffalo hiding out from predators, herds of Elephants taking a bath, hippos, birds, crocs and monitor lizards are just a few that are often found on its banks.
