The Top Honeymoon Spots in Uganda Include:-
Murchison Falls National Park
Murchison Falls National Park is among Uganda’s most romantic honeymoon destinations, and there’s good reason for it. It is worth spending some time exploring this 3840-square-kilometer park on your honeymoon. This is because it is home to vast plains, rivers surrounded by wetlands, rapids, and the most powerful waterfalls in the world.
In addition to enjoying romantic sundowners boat cruises to the base of the falls. While there, you will spot a variety of wildlife, including elephants, hippos, crocodiles, buffaloes, and antelopes. Honeymooners can also relax on the Lodge Lounges with stunning views of the surrounding wilderness.
How appealing is the thought of going on a safari in a hot air balloon? This is an additional activity in Murchison Falls National Park that honeymooners should not miss. When done in the morning, it usually followed by drinks; if it is done in the afternoon, bush breakfast. Among the best places to stay for a honeymoon in this park are Baker’s, Paraa Safari, Nile Safari, and Chobe Safari Lodges.
Ssese Islands in Lake Victoria
The 84 remote, peaceful Islands of Lake Victoria, also referred to as the Ssese Islands, are an ideal honeymoon destination in Uganda. Our honeymooners frequently admit that these remote islands are enough to turn the world into a paradise.
They boast breathtaking scenery, weather fit for a honeymoon, untouched beaches with pure sand, and the most breathtaking sunrise and sunset views—all of which are certain to keep alive the bliss of your love.
Ssese Islands are positioned in Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest freshwater lake and the world’s second largest. They can only be reached by boat from Entebbe, which enhances your honeymoon experience. While here, you may relax on the sun-kissed sand beaches, go on a boat ride, or enjoy a candlelit dinner with the love of your life on the shores of Lake Victoria. The most romantic getaways here include Pineapple Bay Resort on Bulago Island and Brovad Sands Lodge on Bugala Island, among others.

Queen Elizabeth National Park
Another excellent choice for an ideal honeymoon escape in Uganda is Queen Elizabeth National Park. It is endowed with expansive savannah plains, woodlands, freshwater and Crater Lakes, forests, Valleys, and fishing villages.
Honeymooners to the park can indulge in; hot-air balloon safaris, boat cruises along the Kazinga Channel, private game drives, chimpanzee treks in Kyambura Gorge, and experiential lion tracking.
Some of the best lodges in the park are; Elephant Plains, Mweya Safari Lodge, Ishasha Wilderness Camp, Buffalo Safari Lodge, Enganzi Lodge, Ishasha Jungle Lodge, and Kyambura Gorge Lodge. The appeal of these establishments is that they go above and beyond for honeymooners by putting flowers, delivering complimentary cake and a bottle of wine, and offering couples a candle-lit dinner.
Kidepo Valley National Park
Kidepo Valley National Park, tucked away in northeastern Uganda, is an idyllic setting for the ideal honeymoon getaway. Most honeymooners leave the Park in awe due to its isolation, rawness, and variety of uncommon wildlife species.
You can go on game drives, explore the Karamajong communities, go on bush walks, have candlelit bush dinners, and end the day with a sundowner with your significant other.
Did I mention that one of the few locations providing a true “African Wilderness Experience” is Kidepo Valley National Park? Yes, that is correct. For a romantic getaway, consider Adere Safari Lodge or Apoka Safari Lodge, where you will experience the stunning scenery and untamed affection of Mother Nature. Honeymooners may fly to the park or opt for an 8–10 hours drive.
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
Perhaps you’re thinking what on earth you’ll be doing in a jungle on your honeymoon. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the one location that will leave you craving more.
You will fall more and more in love with Uganda and your spouse because of the atmosphere, the views of the forest, the adventures, and the isolation.
Couples can enjoy trekking mountain gorillas, mountain biking, visiting local communities, unwinding and taking in the views from the Lodge with their spouses, and going on a forest walk where they can see numerous birds and other primates.
We usually suggest booking accommodations at Bwindi Lodge, Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp, Mahogany Springs, Buhoma Lodge, Silverback Lodge, Gorilla Safari Lodge, Chameleon Hill Lodge, and the Clouds Mountain Gorilla Lodge among others for romantic vacations and life-changing experiences. Nonetheless, the type of lodging you select depends on the sector you are visiting.
In conclusion, there are other fantastic locations for honeymoons in Uganda for instance; Kibale Forest National Park, Entebbe Town, Jinja City, Lake Bunyonyi, and Lake Mburo National Park to name a few . Uganda is a great destination for family safaris in addition to honeymoons. Even with children, we are still able to plan the ideal and memorable family safari in Uganda.
