This 3 Days Uganda wildlife safari takes you to Murchison falls national park, Uganda’s biggest conservation area. Not only is it affordable, its scenery, density and variety of both prey and predators, are unparalleled. Common sightings include Lions, Leopards, Elephants, Buffaloes, Giraffes, water and bush bucks, and warthogs among others. With its quintessential East African vistas awash with wildlife, and surrounding landscapes graced by a mineral rich escarpment, it is one of the most unique and rewarding places on the continent for game drives, boat cruises and nature walks.
Day1: Entebbe/Kampala-Murchison Falls National Park
Today, our driver guide will pick you up from your hotel after breakfast and take you on a journey towards the Northern part of the country. A major stopover of this four hours journey is Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary. This utterly wild woodland offers guaranteed chances of encountering the second biggest mammal species after the elephant, rhinos. This is thanks to their 24hr surveillance by a team of dedicated ranger guides who are determined to protect from going extinct.
Upon your arrival in Murchison, the first attraction you will visit is the top of the falls to behold the only spot where the world’s longest river squeezes itself through a 6meter wide cleft. Once through, it powerfully plummets over a 45meter high valley wall before landing into a river bed of a 20million year old escarpment. After drive to your lodge either Paraa Lodge/Chobe Safari Lodge/Murchison River Lodge/Fort Murchison camp/Pakuba Safari Lodge. Meal plan: H/B

First-timers will like this place, but Murchison should blow even the most experienced and energetic safari goers. Its variety of activities does not disappoint. One such is a two hours boat cruise along its stretch of river Nile, as destined to a vantage point from which one can feel the powerfulness with which Murchison thunders into the rift valley.
