Murchison Falls Uganda Safari

Accommodation: Paraa Safari Lodge, Murchison Falls
Meal Plan: Lunch, Dinner [L, D]

Begin your adventure with a morning pick-up at your hotel or residence in Kampala or Entebbe by a professional driver-guide from Nomad Touring Company Ltd. Your journey takes you north through Uganda’s Luwero Triangle, a region rich in history and agricultural activity. Along the way, enjoy a guided visit to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, the only place in Uganda where wild rhinos can be seen. Take a short walk with trained rangers to track these incredible creatures on foot—a rare and thrilling experience.

Continue to Masindi Town for a relaxed lunch before entering Murchison Falls National Park, arriving at the top of the falls for panoramic views. Watch in awe as the Nile thunders through a 7-meter gorge into a frothing pool below—a dramatic show of nature's force.

By evening, arrive at Paraa Safari Lodge, nestled on the Nile’s northern bank. Enjoy a hot dinner and unwind in the comfort of your lodge surrounded by the wild sounds of Africa.

Rise early to the calls of the wild for a sunrise game drive across the open savannah of the northern sector. Traverse the delta and grasslands in search of Africa’s iconic wildlife. Expect sightings of elephants, giraffes, lions, leopards, buffaloes, hartebeests, oribis, hyenas, and more. The variety of animals and the photographic landscape make this one of Uganda’s best safari locations.

Return to the lodge for a relaxed lunch and short rest.

In the afternoon, set off on a boat cruise to the base of Murchison Falls along the River Nile. This scenic voyage offers an entirely new perspective of the park—spot hippos lounging in the water, crocodiles sunbathing on the banks, and an array of birdlife including African fish eagles, pied kingfishers, and the elusive shoebill stork. The boat will dock near the thunderous base of the falls, where you can feel the mist and hear the roar as the Nile crashes down.

Return to the lodge by evening for dinner under the stars and share stories from the day’s wildlife encounters.
