Itinerary

Day 1&2: Road trip to Murchison Falls with a launch cruise on the Great Nile, Morning game drive then return to Kampala

After an early breakfast, you’ll be picked up at 6 AM by an AA Safaris guide for the drive to Murchison Falls National Park. You’ll have lunch en route and then continue on to the park, where you’ll check into your lodge. In the afternoon, you’ll go on a launch cruise on the Great River Nile, which will take you to the base of the falls. From there, you can hike to the top of the falls for some photo-taking opportunities. Along the way, keep an eye out for reptiles and primates on the shores of the river. The experience of sailing on the Nile River will be unforgettable.

On the second day, you’ll wake up early for a game viewing drive where you’ll see wild animals like lions, elephants, buffaloes, warthogs, hippos, giraffes, and more. As you drive back to Kampala, your safari guide will first take you to the top of the falls, where you’ll be awestruck by the sight of the mighty river forcing itself through small rocks. You’ll then continue the drive back to Kampala, stopping for lunch en route. You’ll arrive in Kampala in the late afternoon.
