What you can expect

  • Begin your day with a scenic boat transfer from Mwanza’s shore to Saanane Island. As you sail across Lake Victoria, enjoy panoramic views of Mwanza’s rocky landscapes and bustling fishing villages. Upon arrival, a guided tour takes you through the island’s nature trails where wildlife lives freely in its natural habitat.

    Along the way, your expert guide will share fascinating insights about the park’s history, flora, and fauna. The island’s rocky outcrops provide perfect spots for photos, while the shaded paths make the hike both adventurous and comfortable. With luck, you might encounter the graceful impalas leaping through the bushes or spot a fish eagle soaring above the lake.

    After exploring the trails, relax at designated picnic sites with stunning views over Lake Victoria. Here you can enjoy your packed lunch or choose to upgrade with a freshly prepared local meal arranged in advance. The tranquility of the island makes it the perfect escape from the busy city life of Mwanza.

    Enjoy guided walks across the island to view wildlife up close, spot kingfishers, cormorants, fish eagles, and more, capture Mwanza’s famous rock formations and island landscapes, and take optional rides around the island’s shoreline. Learn stories from local guides about the island and Lake Victoria traditions.
