Zziwa Rhino Sanctuary Wandelsafari

We participated in a walking tour in the reserve, accompanied by a guide. The purpose of the reserve is to ensure the repopulation of rhinos, of which, in the 2000s, no one remained. At present, there are 49 rhinos, many of which were born in the reserve to individuals from other countries. They live in absolute freedom in an area of 70 sq km, constantly monitored in order to safeguard the species. Having always been accustomed to seeing humans they do not perceive them as a danger, so you can observe them closely, following the directions of the guide with whom you do the tour. You can't clearly touch them or give them food, but you can observe them at very close range, and, hearing their breath, it's really priceless. I recommend this experience not only for what it can give you, but also because you can support a reality indispensable for the conservation of this species.

Truly gentle giants -- loved them the first time i set my eyes on the- They even visited us at the lodge early in the morning

Encountering one of the bigfives (rhino) has always been on my bucket list until I booked a trip to Ziwa Rhino sanctuary with Inspire African Safaris. Organised my suitable outfits for the onfoot rhino tracking and started the journey with my driverguide Isaac who was really friendly and funny and always made sure am okay and having fun. It was the best and memorable experience because I managed to take pictures and videos of these wonderful creatures and some bird species like the greatblue turaco, hadada ibis, hamerkops among others. I even got know that this is the only place where you can glaze at the rhinos in Uganda if not in the zoo and I felt really good and special. Inspire safaris is best tour company in Uganda and I highly recommend it to those planning to travel around uganda. Looking forward to travelling with you on my next safari

The experience was amazing, we saw many rhinos. Also, we saw baby rhinos. We got quite close to them. We loved it!
