Majestic park. Hike to the top of the falls well worth the effort. Unforgettable view.
We spent two days at Murchison Falls National Park ( family of 6 - 4 young adult kids ages 19-25). Murchison Falls is a beautiful park we hiked the falls, went on a game drive and river cruise. Our accommodations at Paraa Lodge were very comfortable. They have a beautiful swimming pool which offers spectacular views of the park. Great for a late afternoon swim. The hike to the top of the falls is well worth the effort. Standing at the top and feeling the power of the water is an amazing experience. The hike is not technically hard but it does get hot and can be slippery at times. I would recommend putting Murchison Falls on the list for a trip to Uganda.

Absolutely breath taking scenery. We didn't see a leopard and there are no rhinos but there is an abundance of giraffes and elephants. We also saw lions and a variety of antelope species. I would return to this park.

An extraordinary experience
What's more amazing than walking in a fabulous park and quickly find themselves on the brink of a upsetting waterfall?
This is what you can feel like visiting this beautiful park, rich of animals and exceptional views!
What a wildlife experience!
To be honest, I've never been on a safari before but it was pretty much as I dreamed of it: we've seen everything, starting the day with a leopard, going on with lions, elephants, hippos, giraffes and lots of antilopes, it was very impressive.

Its on the tin, just wonderful, rolling hills, large herds, the Nile
Viewing the Kabalega Falls now named Murchison Falls is simply magical. Here is where the whole river Nile, "the world's longest river" is squeezed through a 5 meter wide cleavage and pounding down through an approximately 45 meters long falls forming an amazing rainbow in the hotter part of the day. This is Uganda's largest conservation area with a vast variety of vegetation cover from open savanna, equatorial rain forest, savanna woodland and

A variety of wildlife in a beautiful environment
Murchison Falls National Park is a large, beautiful park in Uganda. I visited the park for my first safari and I had a wonderful experience. I saw a variety of wildlife, experienced the stunning landscape and relaxed at night at a wonderful lodge. I hired a guide to take me into the park and guide me through it which worked nicely. My favorite part of the experience was seeing the elephants. We were even chases off at one point by an elephant. The park staff are lovely, the falls at amazing, and it seemed like a very good place to experience the wonders of Ugandan wildlife.

The park has a variety of wildlife. The scenery was varied and of course features the falls. Accommodations were high quality. Good food. Excellent guides and rangers. Very safe environment for tourists. A mecca for photographers.

It was well organised with spectacular scenery, especially approaching Murchison Falls.
The boat ride to the falls skirts the river edge where an abundance of birds, crocs, hippos, lizards, buffalo and warthogs inhabit the shore. As we approached the Falls the experienced boat captain moved the craft into different positions for better photos. We opted to leave the boat here and trekked the last few kilometres to the top of the falls. This is a must if you are reasonably fit because it provides the best views of Murchison Falls. At the top of the falls we were met by our fantastic driver who then drove us back to our camp. An exhilarating day with out a doubt and highly recommended.
