1 Day ShoeBill tracking tour is a short exhilarating bird safari that takes you to lush Mabamba swamp for an incredible encounter with the pre-historic shoebill stork.

The swamp is every birder’s dream destination that hosts over 260 bird species, for example, shoebill storks, papyrus gonolek, herons, ibis, kingfishers, sunbirds, weaver birds, saddle-billed storks, and fish eagles among others.

Bird watching is the main highlight of the Mabamba Swamp but apart from the shoebill storks and other bird species, you can spot countless butterfly species that will leave you awestruck.
