Rubondo Rarities

Rubondo’s remarkable natural beauty has earned the area the nickname ‘Noah’s Ark’, because of the incredible diversity of animals on the islands. With a shoreline full of sunbathing hippos and crocs, the island is also a haven for endangered chimps who live in the lush forest canopy. The forest also hosts elephant and giraffe. It can get hot in this tropical paradise, which is why November is a good time to go. It’s less humid, fewer mosquitoes and fewer people to compete with at the lodge.
