Itinerary

Welcome to Uganda: Day 1 and 2 Itinerary includes Drive to Murchison Falls National Park, Game Drive, Boat Ride.

“Experience the beauty of Uganda with AA Safaris. Your tour guide will pick you up and welcome you to the country before driving you to Murchison Falls National Park. Take a hike to the swamps and conservation areas surrounding the falls, and explore the forests of Rabongo and Pabidi. These areas are home to a variety of birds and primates, including the Shoebill, Chimpanzees, and Colobus monkeys. You can also picnic or camp by the shores of the stunning River Wairingo, which is filled with diverse bird species and medicinal plants.

In the morning, go on a game drive through the park to spot the big five and other wildlife, such as bushbucks, giraffes, and hyenas. Along the Nile and in its waters, you’ll see hippos and crocodiles. After the drive, try your hand at sport fishing and see if you can beat the record for the largest Nile perch.

Finally, relax on a boat ride down the Nile and watch as birds perch on shrubs and animals like crocodiles and hippos swim in the water. Buffaloes and hyenas may also come to drink at the shore, and you may even see a crocodile attack its prey.”
