Highlights

Day 1: Transfer to Murchison falls National Park

Murchison Falls National Park - Rumara safaris’ friendly and well experienced guide will pick you up from the airport or your favorite lodge immediately after breakfast, brief you about the trip and drive heading to Murchison falls. You make a stopover at the Zziwa rhino sanctuary to meet the endangered white rhinos of Uganda. Afterwards, proceed to Murchison falls Uganda national park and hike to the top of the falls from where you will have the fascinating view of the Nile as it forces its way through the rocks and forming a very beautiful scenery. It is unquestionably adorable. Here you will see the calm Nile dropping its self through a narrow gorge to fall a gap of about 150 ft down churning out a deafening roar of white water- far-fetched scenery! Retreat from the activity and head to your safari lodge for relaxation, dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Morning Game Drive and Nile River Boat Cruise.

Murchison Falls National Park - After an early breakfast, you will go for an early morning game drive in the Savannah, drive along the delta of Lake Albert, beautiful wildlife and don’t forget to take pictures of the sun rise and the early risers. Whatever you are imagining and feeling, viewing animals all around you can never be replicated elsewhere on earth. You will see large crocodiles basking out in the sun. Retreat and go back to rest a bit and enjoy your lunch before an afternoon boat cruise tour on the river Nile. Here, you will encounter a variety of animals along the river banks among which are numerous giant crocodiles, hippos, buffaloes, antelopes and elephants. This actually offers a wonderful opportunity to take photographs of the various animals that come to the river banks for a drink.
You will also have the opportunity to see the magnificent waterfalls as the waters of the mighty Nile force their way through a 7meter gorge and drop down past a series of rocks to 43 meters below.

A great experience and a wonderful team! - One of the best experiences I have ever had! I can say that the level of professionalism, hospitality, and courtesy exceeded my expectations! Great team and of course a beautiful country. If you ever decided to go there (and I highly recommend to do so) ask for Charity and George and they'll make sure you get the best Safari.

Great leopard sighting - Murchison Falls National Park is well worth the visit. I saw a good mix of wildlife and the falls are impressive. The accommodation was relaxing and the food was delicious (they even do iced coffee at the bar). I enjoyed the drive there and back, stopping at the rhino sanctuary, seeing all the cattle and markets along the roadside too. I recommend buying some fresh jackfruit!
