2-Day Murchison Falls National Park Safari

About this experience

Embark on an unforgettable 2-day adventure to Uganda’s largest, oldest, & most visited national park.

Renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife, the Murchison Falls park is named after its star attraction: the powerful Murchison Falls, where the mighty Nile River is forced through a narrow gorge and plunges 45 meters in a dramatic display of nature’s raw power.

Home to over 76 species of mammals, the park boasts sightings of elephants, lions, leopards, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos, warthogs, hyenas, and various antelope species such as Uganda kob, waterbuck, & hartebeest. Reptiles like the Nile crocodile thrive here, and bird lovers can spot over 450 species — including the iconic shoebill stork, Goliath heron, African fish eagle, Abyssinian ground hornbill, & many colourful kingfishers, bee-eaters, & weavers.

The safari includes Rhino Trekking at the Zziwa Sanctuary, the only place in Uganda where you can see wild rhinos. It’s home to 22 southern white rhinos.
