Where I found and felt the 'safari' aspect of the tour with an early morning game drive and an afternoon Nile boat cruise with an abundance of hippos in the water and along the shores with elephants, various hooved species, and other wildlife. I saw all the 'Big 5' except a leopard. Murchison Falls is also very impressive though tour descriptions are very outdated and there's no walking on any trails at base of the falls when boats can't even come near the falls with force of the output.

We found an abundance of Wildlife at Murchison falls national park that would match parks in Kenya and Tanzania along with the worlds most powerful waterfall.

Murchison Falls National Park is home to a wide range of wildlife, including elephants, giraffes, lions, leopards, buffaloes, hippos, and crocodiles. Game drives on the northern bank offer classic savannah safari experiences with high chances of sightings, especially during the dry season.

Vast savanna but not jam packed full of birds - maybe there could have been a better couple of spots for our guide to take us to

We went in July and were really lucky with good weather. At first we went to visit the waterfalls itself which was absolutely stunning - although you should not bother getting a little bit wet.
We did two park rides and saw buffallows, giraffes, cute little pumbas and much more. We also were lucky to see a Lion climb up a tree and some hyanes cross the Street.
At last we did a boat tour to see the hippos which was also really cool.
All in all a very breathtaking experience with our tourguid Frank, who was really kind and had a bright knowledge about the park and the wildlife.

Was blown away by the amount of giraffes in the park! We saw everything except a male lion.
