Details of 2 Days Murchison Falls Tour

Day 1: Entebbe/Kampala – Transfer to Murchison Falls National Park – Top of the Falls

Leave your accommodation in Kampala at around 6:00 am and drive through the outskirt areas of Kampala to the direction of Masindi, through Luwero. This breathtaking drive is approximately a 5-hour drive and will offer you a taste of Uganda’s beautiful evergreen countryside. Reach Murchison Falls Park, check in at the lodge, lunch, and after you will go for a 2-hour boat cruise upstream to the bottom of the falls. You will be able to take wonderful pictures of these powerful waterfalls on the great Nile. See large Elephant herds going to the river, crocodiles, buffaloes and antelopes, schools of hippos, and various birds on the river banks and also on land.

Get off at the bottom of the waterfalls for a guided 45 minutes hike along the sides of these robust waterfalls – this is a route with history; actually, Winston Churchill used this path to carry on his journey using a boat through Uganda in the direction of Egypt through Sudan.

At the bottom of the Falls, you will jump out of the boat to start a hike to the top of the Fall, it is an hour’s activity along the rim, and you will be able to see the Nile squeezing into a meter ridge forming a thunderous roar, here a beautiful rainbow forms, your driver will pick you up from the top of the falls to drive back to the lodge. (Meal plan of F/B)

Accommodation options:  Pakuba Safari Lodge (Mid-range)

Day 2: Murchison Falls NP- Game drive –Boat cruise – transfer to Kampala

Breakfast at the lodge – have a game drive in the park through the Savannah plains down to the Albert flats. You will see Lions, if lucky a leopard, several elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes, numerous antelopes, and a wide range of Savannah & waterbird species.

You will be accompanied by a Ugandan Wildlife Authority Ranger who will unveil to you the various things that you could have missed out like a leopard which normally moves alone in a stealth way, the ranger will also point out several birds and plants species to you and not to forget the wildlife. Every game drive differs and the driver takes time driving you slowly so that you don’t miss out on anything.

What is important is that you enjoy a satisfying experience when out in Savannah. Visitors are usually finding this game drive an extremely special experience and yet again the Murchison Falls presents some of the finest wildlife viewings in the whole of Uganda. Cross River Nile by the Ferry and drive back to the capital Kampala or Entebbe. Have Lunch at the Masindi Hotel with Two sodas or a beer as a complimentary from us.
