3 Days Game safaris and falls, Murchison falls.

Located at the foot of the Albertine Rift Valley, the oldest and biggest national park in Uganda is Murchison Falls National Park, which is primarily famous for three-day wildlife safaris and the majestic falls. The park was once called Kabalega National Park. Reachable by car or plane, Murchison Falls is situated 305 kilometers in the country’s northwest.

The park, which was first designated as a wildlife preserve in 1926, is now home to 451 bird species and 76 animal species. The Bugungu and Karuma wildlife parks combine to form the Murchison Falls Conservation Area.

The Victoria Nile cuts over Murchison Falls National Park, plunging 45 meters over the valley wall to form the spectacular falls. These falls are the park’s main draw and the last rapid in an 80-kilometer section of rapids. After the river’s vitality is exhausted, the powerful waterfall turns it into a serene stream that empties into Lake Albert after flowing over the bottom of the rift valley. This section of the Nile River is home to some of the most breathtaking animal shows in all of Uganda.

Murchison Falls National Park is perfect for small groups and families thanks to its affordable rates, breathtaking waterfall views, and game viewing opportunities. Choose from our 3-day or 2-day game safaris to get the full experience, including game viewing, boat cruises to the base of the falls, and hikes to the bottom of the falls.

Elephants, giraffes, and buffaloes are just some of the animals that may be seen along the banks of the Nile River. Other permanent inhabitants include hippos, crocodiles, and aquatic bird species.

Activities such as bird watching, outdoor walks, and launch excursions to the base and top of the falls are common. The most popular and thrilling activity is going on a launch voyage since it takes you right up to the park’s main attraction.
