Murchison Falls National Park is located at the northern end of the Albertine Rift Valley where the Bunyoro escarpment meets the plains of Acholi land. Established as a game reserve in 1926 to protect its rich savanna wildlife, it is one of Uganda's oldest conservation areas. The Park is split by the Victoria Nile which spectacularly drops 40 meters over the rift valley wall at Murchison Falls. This short 2 day safari starts in Kampala on Day 1 and ends in Entebbe on Day 2 and includes a boat cruise to the base of the falls, a visit to the top of the falls, a sunrise game drive on the Nyamsika Plateau, and rhino trekking at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary.
After an early breakfast you will drive through scenic woodlands and savannah grasslands to Murchison Falls National Park. Upon arrival you will have lunch and rest. At 2:00 pm you will take a boat cruise on the Victoria Nile to the base of Murchison Falls. Along the way you will spot hippos, crocodiles, waterbucks and various birds including the rare shoebill stork. The boat will stop near the bottom of the falls for photos and you will also visit the top of the falls. Later you will return to Sambiya River Lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
Wake early for breakfast and set off at 6:30 am for a sunrise game drive on the Nyamsika Plateau where you will see Cape buffaloes, Rothschilds giraffes, Uganda kob, hartebeest and waterbucks and possibly oribi, bushbuck, Bohor reedbuck, sitatunga, bush duiker, warthog and bush pig as well as predators such as lions, leopards and spotted hyenas. After the game drive you will transfer to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, have an early lunch, receive a briefing from a ranger and trek the sanctuary for about two hours to track rhinos. Afterwards you will transfer back to Entebbe to catch your flight.
