    Our trip to Lake Bunyonyi was pure magic. The serene lake instantly captivated us. Kayaking on its calm waters and exploring its charming islands is a story i will leave to tell. The warm hospitality and delicious local cuisine at Bunyonyi overland resort got me falling in love with the Ugandan pine apple. Asked if i could do it again? Yes! Over and over again.

    Our time at Lake Bunyonyi surpassed all expectations. The tranquil lake, stunning sunsets, and friendly locals made every moment unforgettable. Though we got stuck in a muddy road at Kacerere, the locals were quite helpful. I will take on the memories for really long.
