The 3-day Murchison Falls National Park safari explores Uganda’s largest protected area, covering 3,840 square kilometres. Established in 1926 and divided by the River Nile, the park features diverse habitats including acacia savannahs, grasslands, wetlands, woodlands, and borassus palm forests, which support over 451 bird species and 87 mammal species, including the Big Five, commonly seen during game drives and boat cruises.

The main highlight is the powerful Murchison Falls, where the River Nile squeezes through a narrow 7-meter gorge before plunging 43 meters into the Devil’s Cauldron, creating a thunderous roar and misty spray. The safari also includes a visit to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary for guided rhino tracking on foot.
