3-Day Murchison Falls Vacation Including Big 5 Sighting
This safari takes you to the mighty Murchison Falls. Expect big five sighting but the highlight is the boat trip to base of the falls and a hike (if you like) to the top of the falls. A safari to the Murchison Falls offers the opportunity for Big 5 sighting in Uganda. Enjoy the roars of the Murchison Falls and depart for your outbound flight in Entebbe.
ItineraryDay 1: Pick up and Transfer to Murchison Falls NP with detour rhino tracking in Zziwa.Pass By: Murchison Falls National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, Western Region
Hopefully, your flight is scheduled for an early landing in Entebbe. Your guide/driver will pick you from Entebbe Airport and head out for Murchison falls. The highlights of this park include: the roaring rapids of the Murchison, the rolling plains of Uganda’s largest National Park where you will have the chance of viewing lions, giraffes, hartebeest, buffalo, and elephants. Then surely you will be fascinated by the concentration of hippos and the Nile crocodiles here. For birders, Murchison Falls boasts 450 bird species including the elusive shoebill stork, dwarf king fisher, the white-thigh hornbill, and the Goliath heron among others.
En route, make a stopover at Zziwa Rhino sanctuary for your first Big 5 experience where you will have an hour of rhino tracking. Another stop will be in Masindi in order to enjoy your lunch. Continue to the park and check in to your accommodation to relax for the Evening.

You will have an opportunity to take thousands of pictures (and so carry your camera with you if you like).
