Murchison falls and rhino sanctuary

Start your journey early from Entebbe Airport, traveling northwest through lush countryside and small towns toward Murchison Falls National Park. Enjoy a scenic drive along the Kampala–Gulu highway with photo stops. Continue your drive into the park, where the landscape transforms into savannah dotted with acacia trees. In the afternoon, embark on a boat cruise along the Nile River, cruising upstream towards the base of Murchison Falls. Along the way, spot hippos lounging in the water, crocodiles basking on the banks, elephants coming to drink, and colorful bird species like fish eagles. The cruise culminates at the thunderous falls where the Nile forces its way through a narrow 7-meter gorge, creating a stunning display of nature’s power. After the cruise, head to your lodge for dinner and an overnight stay, resting up for the next day’s adventures.

Game drive, boat cruise and chimpanzee trekking

Start your day with an early morning game drive in the northern sector of Murchison Falls National Park, where you may spot lions, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, warthogs, and a variety of antelopes. The morning hours offer the best chance to see predators and other wildlife as they are most active. After the game drive, visit the Top of the Falls and witness the Nile River forcefully squeeze through a narrow 7-meter gorge before plunging 45 meters below, creating a thunderous roar and mist. Enjoy the spectacular views and photo opportunities. Then the driver guide will drive you back to the Airport for your flight.
