This safari takes you to explore the oldest and largest park of Uganda, the Murchison Falls National Park, which sits on a 3,850 sq km in the north eastern province of Uganda. Founded in 1962 and first gazetted as a game reserve, Murchison is gifted with savannah grassland plains and the Victoria Nile that flows through to form the attractive Murchison Falls. Home to over 451 bird species, Murchison Falls boasts of birds such as the great blue turaco, goliath heron, the shoebill and the dwarf kingfisher, among others, as well as 76 mammal species and a large number of Nile crocodiles. Enjoy safari game drives and the Nile boat cruises along the river on this 3-day Murchison Falls safari in Uganda.

Enjoy a scenic drive through the Luwero triangle with a not-to-miss stopover at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, where you can track the rhinos, both white and black rhinos. Thanks to the Rhino Sanctuary Fund for the conservation and protection of these rhinos.
We proceed after the rhino tour heading towards Murchison Falls with a lunch stopover in Masindi where you will have lunch, and eventually we shall arrive at the park. Check in with the park authorities and afterwards drive to the top of the Murchison Falls, with a chance to see various animals such as warthogs and baboons among others. Being at the top of the Falls is an amazing experience as you will watch the magnificent Falls squeezing through the rocks into an 8m gorge. Take as many photos as you can.
