## Itinéraire du groupe
##
Arrive in Kampala whenever your flight lands and check in.
In the evening you'll meet your Soca Islands Host and fellow travellers and head out together for your first night in the city. Back at your accommodation, the pool and terrace are good spots to swap travel stories and get to know the group.
##
A long, scenic drive south takes you over the Equator (stop for the photo) and on into the hills of southwestern Uganda.
By afternoon you'll reach Lake Bunyonyi, a web of terraced slopes and small islands that many consider the country's loveliest lake. With no dangerous wildlife in the water, a swim is very much on the cards.
##
The day many travellers come to Uganda for. With experienced rangers leading the way, you'll hike into Bwindi Impenetrable Forest to find a family of mountain gorillas.
The trails can be steep, muddy and slow going, but sitting quietly while these great apes feed and play around you is worth every step.
##
Take it easy after yesterday's trek. Paddle a canoe between the islands, go for a hike or a swim, look for birds along the shoreline, or join an optional day trip across the border into Rwanda.
In the evening, relax with the group and relive your time with the gorillas.
##
Drive north through changing countryside to the Kalinzu Forest Reserve. This corner of Uganda mixes dense forest with open savannah and the wetlands around Lake George, and it's where you'll spend the night ahead of tomorrow's early start.
##
Set out early with a guide to track chimpanzees through Kalinzu Forest, listening for their calls as they move through the trees.
Afterward you'll stop at a tea plantation, then continue to Lake Mburo National Park, where you can put your feet up or add an optional boat cruise or guided walk.
##
Cross the Equator again, pausing to see the curious effects on either side of the line.
A meal at a community-supported café breaks up the drive before you continue to Jinja on the banks of the Nile.
##
Jinja is Uganda's adventure capital, and today you choose how to spend it: white-water rafting on the Nile, a mountain bike ride, or a slower morning browsing the local markets.
Keep your eyes open, as wildlife often wanders through the area.
##
Drive back to Kampala, where the trip ends in the early afternoon. Not ready to leave? Consider staying on to see more of Uganda.

## FAQ du voyage
##
Fly in and out of Entebbe International Airport (EBB).
##
Yes. If you arrive on Day 1 of your adventure or book pre-tour accommodation with us, your airport arrival transfer is included. If you choose alternative pre-tour accommodation or arrive by another mode of transport, you’ll need to arrange your own arrival transfer.
Our arrival transfers are private to Soca Islands and are organised in groups based on flight times. Sometimes this means a short wait at the airport until other flights arrive.
##
There are no scheduled activities on the final day, so feel free to book your departure at your own convenience.
##
We recommend arriving before 3 pm on Day 1 to make it in time for the welcome event. But don’t worry no matter when you land, we’ll have an airport transfer ready for you.
##
Please Refer to your government’s travel advice or consult your local consulate. Remember, passport and visa requirements can change, so make sure to stay updated.
##
Excluding alcohol, we suggest budgeting around USD $40.00 per day for extras.
##
While we’re not medical professionals, we want to help you prepare for a safe and healthy adventure. Here are some tips:
1. **Consult with a healthcare professional:** Schedule an appointment with your travel nurse or doctor at least eight weeks before your adventure to get any necessary vaccines or medications.
2. **Up-to-date medical advice:**
- **US residents:** Check the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website.
- **UK residents:** Visit the NHS Fit For Travel website.
- **Australian residents:** Refer to the Smart Traveler Health website.
3\. **Government travel advice:**
- **US residents:** Consult the US Department of State Travel Advice.
- **UK residents:** Check the FCDO Travel Advice.
- **Australian residents:** Visit the Smart Traveler website.
4\. **Medication tips:** If you take prescription medication, bring enough to last the entire trip, plus a few extra days in case of delays. Carry a copy of your prescription in case you need to visit a clinic abroad.
We hope this helps you prepare for a safe and enjoyable adventure.
##
Please keep in mind that our itinerary, activities, and hotels might change. These adjustments could happen with little notice due to factors like availability, weather conditions, seasonal shifts, or other circumstances beyond our control. Rest assured, we always aim to minimise any impact on your experience. Occasionally, we may tweak the itinerary to try out fresh ideas and keep the adventure exciting.
##
We believe solo travelers shouldn’t have to pay extra to explore the world. That’s why our group trips are designed around shared accommodation and do not include a single supplement. Solo travelers joining our group trips are paired in twin or multi-share rooms with another traveler of the same sex for the duration of the trip.
Some of our Independent trips are structured differently. For these itineraries, solo travelers will need to book at the single occupancy rate.
##
Tips are not included in the cost of this tour. Remember, tipping is entirely at your discretion and based on what you feel comfortable with.
