Uganda is home to one of Africa’s highest mountain ranges, the source of the Nile, and the largest lake in Africa. Lake Albert Safaris offers nothing less than ideal hunting camps, stunning scenery, and picturesque wildlife reserves to complement your unique hunt.
Uganda contains endemic species such as the Ssese Island Sitatunga that can only be found on the Ssese Islands in Lake Victoria and are key collectors species.
There are five prime hunting areas, each with exceptional accommodation and a wealth of indigenous species.
Bruce Martin founded the company with the aim of conserving what was left of the species in Uganda, through ethical and sustainable hunting. Over the past twenty years, he has achieved over and above that goal, evident in the exponential wildlife population growth seen in the reserves. Bruce’s contribution to conservation is clear and he has created the perfect example of how to successfully manage wildlife reserves and incorporate hunting.
In hunting with Lake Albert Safaris, you will receive an experience packed with memorable moments and long lasting friendships. We hope to see you in the near future.
