Uganda

2 Days Murchison Falls Wildlife Safari

Two days are quite enough to allow you to explore Murchison Falls National Park. This is Uganda’s largest and most visited national park because of its outstanding beauty, the big four mammals, and the world’s most powerful waterfalls – the Murchison Falls, from which it got its name. It is also home to Uhuru Falls, which falls simultaneously with Murchison Falls. Almost all tourists to Uganda visit this amazing park for the ultimate travel experience.

TRAVEL DETAILS

Day 1: Travel to Murchison Falls National Park and take a boat ride to the bottom of the falls

The driver guide will pick you up from the hotel where you spent the previous night or from the agreed-upon meeting point in the morning. Immediately start the journey to Murchison Falls National Park. It is a 3-4 hour drive that is full of stunning lush along the countryside of Uganda. Arrival is in the afternoon for lunch, and then embark on a boat ride to the bottom of the falls.

The cool ride gives you beautiful views of the landscape, numerous wildlife species like hippos, crocodiles, seabirds, and animals that come along the river banks for drinking water. In the evening, return to the lodge for dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Morning game drive and departure

Early morning, have breakfast and go for a game drive through Murchison Falls National Park. The park offers one of the best game drive experiences in Uganda. Driving through the expansive landscape guarantees sights of lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, waterbucks, Uganda kobs, hyenas, oribis, giraffes, and many others. The drive takes about 3-4 hours. From the wild, have lunch and depart for Kampala. That will be the end of the 2 days Murchison Falls wildlife safari.
