I’d heard such amazing reports about Murchison Falls, ‘the world’s heaviest waterfall’, that I was worried whether the famous waterfalls would live up to expectations. Spoiler alert: they did.
The light spray from the waterfalls and the force of the River Nile pounding the hard rock beneath your feet at the Top of the Falls make this an experience for all the senses. The half-hour walk to the Bottom of the Falls gives views of both Murchison and Uhuru Falls, one of my favourite spots in Uganda.
Boat rides upriver and down to the Delta are perennially fabulous (with sundowners or fishing rod in hand) and make Murchison’s heat bearable in the dry season. Look out for the shoebill, colonies of bee-eaters and the country’s biggest Nile crocodiles, some measuring 5m in length.
I preferred the park when the little ferry shuttled between the north and south river banks but I admit that the bridge and roads built by the oil industry (boo) mean
