Description

Murchison Falls National Park lies at the northern end of the Albertine Rift Valley, where the sweeping Bunyoro escarpment tumbles into vast, palm-dotted savannah. It is crossed by the Nile – the longest river as it flows north-wards to the Mediterranean. First gazetted as a game reserve in 1926, it is UgandaÂ’s largest and oldest conservation area, hosting 76 species of mammals and 451 birds.

  • Arrival in Uganda

    You arrive at Entebbe International Airport, located on a peninsula that juts out into Lake Victoria, where a representative or your driver/guide from Uzuri Uganda Safaris will welcome you to the Pearl of Africa and transfer you to Eureka Place Hotel, Kampala for your overnight stay.

  • Drive to Murchison Falls National Park

    After breakfast at 7.00am, you depart Kampala headed to Murchison Falls National Park via Zziwa Rhino Sanctuary where rhinos that got wiped out in the Ugandan wild are being bred before re-introduction back in the national parks. When you arrive at the Zziwa Rhino Sanctuary, a guide and armed rangers will take you on either a walking/by vehicle safari to look for the rhinos.

    Once you have spotted the rhinos, you will stay in their presence for a while before enjoying a bush picnic lunch in the sanctuary’s grounds. After lunch, you will return to your vehicle to complete your transfer to Murchison Falls National Park). On arrival, you will check-in at your chosen lodge for relaxation.

  • Game drive and boat launch to bottom of falls

    Up at 6.00am, you will head out for a game drive for a chance to view the glorious day-break from across the open savannah, birds and dotted woodland as well as reverine vegetation along the Nile. You will also be able to see game ranging from lions, buffalo, elephant, giraffes, antelope and a lot more. At between 10-11am, you will return to the lodge for breakffast, relaxation and lunch. After your lunch at 2.00pm, you will head out for the boat launch to the bottom of the powerful Murchison Falls.

    This 3-hour boat cruise climaxes at the edge of the rift valley escarpment at which point you will get off the boat and trek to the top of the falls (wear sports shoes while on the boat for ease of trekking to the top). Having worked up a sweat, once at the top, get bathed in the misty spray that the Nile creates as it forces itself into the 7-metre cleft to create the famous Murchison Falls. Your guide will transfer you back to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.

  • Drive To Entebbe and departure

    Today, wake up at leisure and enjoy your breakfast. After breakfast, relax in and around the beautiful lodge ahead of your check-out at 10.00am. After check-out, you will commence your transfer back to Kampala with a lunch stop in Masindi. You should arrive back in Kampala in the early evening and continue to Entebbe International Airport. You are dropped off at the airport in time for you to check-in for your departure home.
