Rhino tracking on foot, a Nile boat trip and the thunder of the falls.
At Murchison Falls the whole River Nile forces itself through a gap just 7 metres wide, and the roar is unforgettable. This 4-day private safari starts with rhino tracking on foot at Ziwa Sanctuary.
It continues with game drives for giraffes, lions and elephants, and a boat trip to the foot of the falls past hippos and crocodiles. A hike to the top of the falls completes the trip.
Best time to goDecember to February and June to September.
