3 Days Murchison Falls safari



  Day 1: Entebbe to Murchison Falls  

Waking up in the morning and after receiving a morning breakfast, depart for the most beautiful protected area in Uganda. Murchison falls national park en route and will make a stopover at Ziwa rhino sanctuary, a home to only wild Rhinos in Uganda after which most of them died by a disease called anthrax as this project aims at re- introducing them and restore them back in national parks like in the past times of 1982. Together with the guide you will have a safari-hike to the  rhinos and observe them in their habitat at a very close and safe distance. After lunch you continue to Murchison falls.
Dinner and overnight at Red Chilli  
Journey time: 7 hours



Day 2: Murchison falls National park

After an early morning breakfast, we start the day with a game drive on the Northern Bank of the Nile, having great chance of seeing giraffes, elephants, lions, hartebeest and different species of birds and return back to the hotel for lunch. In the afternoon, the safari will be continued with a boat cruise on the River Nile for game viewing at close quarters. Carefully watched by crocodiles, hundreds of Hippos, birds of water and all other thirsty wildlife that the Nile attracts, the boat will arrive at the base of the 43m high Murchison falls, which approaches with a thunderous sound. Your guide will also point out the famous spot where Hemingway’s plane went down.
Being in a boat brings you close to animals and offers you fantastic photo opportunities. After the boat cruise, you return to the lodge.
 Dinner and over night at  Red chilli


Day 3: Murchison falls –  Kampala / Entebbe
 
After an early breakfast and picking up a packed lunch, you will stop at the top of the waterfall on the way out of the park. You will be awarded with an amazing view of the Nile River entering its gorge and forming a rain bow, exploding violently through a narrow cleft in the Rift valley escapement to plunge into frothing pools 43m below.
from here you drive back to Kampala, the driver drops you are your accommodation in Kampala or Entebbe or straight to the Airport.
