Travel to Murchison Falls National Park - Visit the Top of Murchison Falls and Wildlife View

On this day, you will be picked up by our company representative from the airport or hotel and kick start this day’s nature adventure with an exciting 6 hours road trip to Murchison Falls National Park with lunch en route. Upon arrival inside the park, you will be amazed by the beautiful landscape while occasionally sighting warthogs and other wildlife with a drive to the top of the falls whose views are breathtaking. About 300 - 400 cubic meters per second of Nile water force through a tiny gorge of about 7 meters to plunge into a violent tempest in a whirlpool about 42 meters below. It is such a beautiful sight with incredible picture moments here. Drive to the lodge as you view wild animals en route.
