You will leave Kampala in the morning and start your safari to Murchison Falls National Park. Along the way, you will have a stop at the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary where they are working hard to reintroduce rhinos to Uganda. Here you will go on a trek to see these impressive animals. After this visit, you will continue your journey with a picnic lunch to enjoy along the way. Upon arrival at Murchison Falls National Park, you will check in at Pakuba Lodge, settle in, enjoy dinner, and then turn in for the night.
After breakfast, you will head out for an action-packed game drive where you have the chance to see the big cats, elephants, giraffes, buffalos, and many more. After the game drive, you will head back to the lodge for lunch and then take off for a boat ride to the base of the falls. Here you will get to see hippos, Nile crocodiles, elephants, and a variety of beautiful bird species along the banks of the river. After this boat cruise, you will head back to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
After breakfast, you will check out and embark on your last game drive to the park. This gives you a last chance to see the big cats and other wildlife as you head on to visit the top of the falls. This is a magnificent classic highlight of your last day on the safari. You will experience the explosive mass of water at close range as it gushes through a narrow crevice. After this once-in-a-lifetime experience, you will leave the park and start the journey back to Kampala having lunch along the way. Upon arrival to Kampala, you will be dropped off at your designated place. This is where your safari will end.
