Lake Victoria, is the Source of the Nile River, it's own source comes from Jinja through the Bujagali falls and is in no way connected to  Victoria falls which is found in Zimbabwe. Spectacular scenery with tropical forests, snow-covered mountain peaks and volcanic ranges with the last mountain gorillas make Lake Victoria truly one of the most spectacular places to be found on this planet.

Almost 100 mammal species and a remarkable 606 bird species makes this superb Uganda safari territory, with elephant, a profusion of hippos, the elusive giant forest hog and handsome Uganda kob all regularly sighted around the tourist village on the Mweya Peninsula - which also boasts a marvelous waterfront setting in the shadow of the Rwenzori Mountains.
