About This Tour
Witness the raw power of the Nile as it forces through a narrow 7-metre gorge to create the spectacular Murchison Falls. Enjoy a game drive on the park's northern bank where Rothschild's giraffes, elephants, lions, and hartebeest roam the savannah. The afternoon boat cruise upstream to the base of the falls is a highlight, with hippo pods, massive Nile crocodiles, and colourful bee-eaters along the banks.
This is an ideal add-on for visitors based in Kampala or Entebbe looking for a real safari experience without a long commitment.

Traveller Reviews
The falls were breathtaking and the Nile cruise was a highlight. Our guide spotted animals I would have completely missed. Great value for money.
The wildlife sightings were good, but communication before the trip could have been better. The vehicle was a bit old. Food was excellent though.
