Murchison Falls National Park lies at the northern end of the Rift Valley. It is the largest protected area situated north of Masindi district and spanning the Victoria Nile. The Park is named after the dramatic Murchison falls where the river explodes violently through a narrow 7 m gap to fall a distance of 47m. The parks wildlife species attractions includes giraffes, Lions, Buffaloes, Uganda Kob, Elephant, Warthogs and an abundance of birds. These provide opportunity for excellent game drive.

    To Murchison Falls NP for Afternoon (Sunset) Game

    You will begin the panoramic drive north-west through the famous Luwero Triangle & Masindi Town to arrive in Murchison Falls NP in time for lunch at the spectacularly situated site located at the top of Murchison Falls. The park is the largest wildlife reserve in Uganda & is divided by the famous River Nile into two almost equal halves - where it has to squeeze itself through the legendary Murchison Falls, an impossibly narrow 7-meter gap in a cleft rock that creates the powerful explosion of white water. During this drive (7 hrs drive), you will be rewarded with splendid views of the countryside. You will arrive to Murchison Falls National Park in the afternoon, have lunch & go for your afternoon game drive where you will expect to see many wildlife animals & keep your fingers crossed for lion & leopard. The game track network converges at Delta Point where the Nile flows north out of Lake Albert; this is a convenient place to stop for refreshments & view water birds offshore & distant hippos. Please note: White Rhinos tracking at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary is optional at additional fees of $50 per person.

    Game drive & Afternoon Boat Safari on Victoria/Nile River

    On this day, your safari breakfast will be served before the day breaks so that you can start your morning game drive as the sun comes up. Sunrise is the best time for wildlife spotting as animals tend to be the most active during the “golden hours”, when the first rays of sunshine come to rest on the savannah. Elephants, buffalo and several species of antelope are some of the characters you may come across today, & if you’re lucky, you may even spot a lion or leopard. You will return for lunch in the afternoon & go for a 3-hours boat safari upstream on the Victoria Nile to the falls where you will pass by breathtaking scenery, as well as many crocodiles, hundreds of hippos, buffaloes, water birds, monkeys & other animals that come down to the Nile. The boat will drop you near the waterfall for your hike (1-1.5 hours) up to the top of the falls.

    Top of the Falls Walk & Departure

    On this day, you will enjoy your last sunrise & breakfast in this beautiful National Park in Uganda with a walk to top of Murchison Falls for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Here is your chance to see the beauty of the Nile perfected. Marvel at the immensely powerful falls, caused by the 50m-wide Nile being funnelled into a 7-metre cleft in the rocks. Dropping 40 metres with a thunderous roar, the falls create a beautiful rainbow and an impressive plume of spray-they were once described as the most spectacular thing to happen to the Nile along its 6700-kilometre length. Your guide will then drive you across the beautiful sceneries back to Entebbe & drop you off at Entebbe International Airport 3 hours before your departure time. Please make sure your flight departure is after 6 pm at the very earliest. For flights departing before 6 pm you will need an extra night in Entebbe, which we can help arrange for you at an additional cost. Alternative departure route (at an additional cost): - Fly to Entebbe. Please note: Get in touch for a similar safari on mid-range or up-market basis.
