Transfer From Entebbe to Murchison falls National Park

After an early breakfast at Karibu Guest house, you will depart for Murchison Falls National Park, traveling through lovely woods and Savannah grasslands. This travel takes 6-7 hours, and upon arriving, you will have your lunch and rest. At 3:00 p.m., you will take a boat ride upstream on the calm Victoria Nile to the base of the falls. Along the way, you'll witness hippos, crocodiles, waterbuck, and a variety of birds, including the rare shoebill stork. The boat pauses only a few meters from the "Devil's Cauldron" to allow for photographs of the stunning and spectacular Murchison Falls. You will then be returned to your booked lodge for supper and sleep.
