Am Game Drive, Pm Boat Trip and Nature Hike

Rise early for breakfast at the lodge. Your guide will brief you about the activities of the day. Head out for the morning game drive. Your guide will help you spot elephant, lion, buffalo, Rothschild's giraffe, hartebeest, waterbuck, oribi, Bohor reedbuck, hyena, and if you're lucky, leopard. Take a break for lunch and later go for a boat safari upstream the Victoria Nile to the base of the falls a few meters from the “Devil’s Cauldron”. En-route, marvel at the toothsome hippos and crocodiles, and over this 17 km stretch, you may see elephants, waterbucks and Uganda kobs. At the bottom of the falls, you leave the boat and start your quite heavy hike to the top of the falls (aprox 1 hr) towards the top. You will see the world’s longest river explode violently through a narrow cleft in the Rift Valley escarpment to plunge into a frothing pool 43 m below. Your guide will be waiting for you to bring you back to the lodge.
