Hi Harsha
Great to read your feedback (I’m quite a regular at The Bee Hive). Like you say, it’s a great place to stop for a meal after seeing the chimps or doing KAFRED’s swamp walk in Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary.
I like Rweteera Safari Park too. I spent two nights there with my nephew recently. Its wonderful cycling country too.

I was there in May17 and had a wonderful time soon after my chimp trek in Kibale and the birding in Bigodi. My dear friend Howard Musinguzi Japan from Papyrus tours was with me and i quite enjoyed the Karo and peri peri goat curry with a cold Tusker beer.The manager Paul was a very cordial & wonderful individual, along with the young ladies who served delicious fare.I spent a whole day watching the sun set over Kibale NP with a sundowner….memorable moments…before retiring to Rweteera Safari park for the night..

Would I have enticed you to Bigodi Swamp if you had known there was a 7.5 metre snake hiding in there?! (Actually, I know the answer to that one, LOL). We saw so many different types of primates didn’t we?
The honey we bought from the Bee Hive is delicious – I’m still enjoying mine 🙂
Thanks for being part of my travels around Uganda! x

The pictures bring back happy memories of last Christmas at Sunbird Hill with Julia and the delicious Christmas lunch! After our trek and sadly not seeing the 7.5 metre python we were very happy to arrive at the Beehive before our onward long journey. And I bought seven pots of honey which didn’t leak in my suitcase coming home. However I did wrap them up well in polythene bags just in case. We were really quite off the beaten track (apart from the new piece of road) and still managed to have a cappucino!
You have described everything very well and the waitress was as nice as she looks. Go try it out and see for yourself, it was such a welcome break on a hot day albeit I had excellent homegrown coffee!
