Kampala - Murchison Falls National Park

Prepare for an early pick-up at exactly 6:00 a.m. to begin your journey to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary for rhino tracking before continuing to the top of Murchison Falls National Park. Here, you will witness the Nile squeeze through a narrow gorge just seven meters wide before plunging into a whirlpool about 43 meters below. The sight of this powerful waterfall is breathtaking.

Afterwards, proceed to lunch before setting out at 2:30 p.m. for a wildlife launch cruise on the River Nile. The relaxing three-and-a-half-hour boat ride offers close-up sightings of wildlife along the riverbanks, including hippos, crocodiles, buffaloes, elephants, monitor lizards, and warthogs. You may also spot a variety of birds, such as African fish eagles, red-throated bee-eaters, skimmers, cattle egrets, and the elusive shoebill. The boat ride takes you to the base of Murchison Falls, offering another spectacular view.
