Tour Overview
This safari will take you to Uganda’s largest park, Murchison Falls National Park, situated in the north west on an area of 3,840 sq km and created in 1926 as a game reserve. With savannah grasslands and the Victoria Nile that flows through separating it into two (the northern and the southern bank), Murchison Falls is a home to over 451 bird species including the great blue turaco, goliath heron, shoebill and dwarf kingfisher, 76 mammal species, and the magnificent and thunderous Murchison Falls squeezing its way through a gorge that is 8m wide. Explore this fantastic park on game drives and a boat cruise as well as visiting Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary for rhino tracking on the way to Murchison Falls.
