Overview

Murchison Falls National Park lies at the northern end of the Albertine Rift Valley, where the sweeping Bunyoro escarpment tumbles into vast, palm-dotted savannah. It is crossed by the Nile (the longest river in the world) as it flows northwards to the Mediterranean. First gazetted as a game reserve in 1926, it is Uganda's largest and oldest conservation area, hosting 76 species of mammals and 451 birds.

Day 1

Drive to Murchison Falls via Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary

After breakfast at 7 am, you will head to Murchison Falls National Park via Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary. Rhinos that got wiped out in the Ugandan wild, are being bred here before re-introduction into the national parks. On arrival at the sanctuary, a guide and armed rangers will take you on either a walking or a vehicle safari to search for the rhinos. Once you have spotted the rhinos, you will stay in their presence for a while before enjoying a bush picnic lunch in the sanctuary’s grounds. After lunch, you will return to your vehicle to complete your transfer to Murchison Falls National Park. On arrival, you will check in at Tilenga SafariLodge for your overnight stay.

Game Drive & Boat Safari to Bottom of Falls

Day 2

Game Drive & Boat Safari to Bottom of Falls

Head out at 6 am for a game drive to view the glorious day-break from across the open savannah. You will see birds and dotted woodland as well as riverine vegetation along the Nile. You will also be able to see game like lion, buffalo, elephant, giraffe, antelope and a lot more. Between 10-11 am, you will return to the lodge for breakfast, relaxation and lunch. After your lunch at 2 pm, you will head out for the boat launch to the bottom of the powerful Murchison Falls. This 3-hour boat cruise climaxes at the edge of the Rift Valley escarpment. Here you will get off the boat and trek to the top of the falls (wear sports shoes while on the boat for ease of trekking to the top). Having worked up a sweat, once at the top, get bathed in the misty spray that the Nile creates as it forces itself into the 7-metre cleft to create the famous Murchison Falls. Your guide will transfer you back to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay. Mid-range lodge located inside Murchison Falls NP All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks

Excellent 6-day tour in Rwanda and Uganda with my guideSmith

I just finished my 6-day tour in Rwanda and Uganda booked with Lulu Safaris. My guide was Smith and he was just the best, nothing was too much trouble. Smith picked me up from Kigali and in 6 days we went to Nyungwe for canopy walking and ziplining. After this we continued to Volcanoes where I did hike to Dian Fossey's grave, then to Bwindi to see gorillas. After this to Queen Elizabeth, where I even saw lions! I did a chim trekking and Lake Bunyonyi. Accommodations were high quality and food really good and I had no problem to find vegetarian options. My tour was just absolutely amazing thanks to Smith and Lulu Safaris. As a female solo traveller I encourage everybody to go explore this beautiful countries.

Very good

The experience with Lulu Safari was excellent from the very first inquiry. Communication was always smooth and quick, both by email and WhatsApp, resolving all our doubts and guiding us through the trip planning. Upon arriving in Uganda, everything flowed even better. We were greeted by Derrik and Viktor, who from the first moment made us feel like we were in the hands of true professionals. We had a few minor issues with some accommodations, but they were resolved immediately. Derrik and Viktor always acted quickly, kindly, and practically, seeking the best alternative to ensure our comfort and peace of mind. At our accommodation in Bwindi, on my birthday, they took care of notifying the lodge so they could surprise me with a decorated room, and during dinner, they sang "Happy Birthday" to me. It was a beautiful and very meaningful gesture. But what truly made this trip unique was the human and professional quality of Derrik and Viktor. They were both punctual, kind, attentive, and extremely considerate. During the long journeys, they constantly asked if we needed breaks, always adapting to our pace and providing attentive, respectful, and very pleasant support. Viktor also speaks Spanish, which greatly facilitated communication and allowed us to perfectly understand all the explanations and knowledge that Derrik shared. We highly recommend requesting Derrik and Viktor as your guides when booking with Lulu Safari. They made our trip unforgettable, and we felt accompanied by two exceptional people, both professionally and personally. Uganda is a wonderful country that is well worth visiting, and doing so with guides like them makes all the difference. (automatic translation from Spanish)

Top-Notch Experience

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Lulu Safaris! From start to finish, everything was so well-organised, smooth, and truly memorable. I am especially grateful to our guides, CAESAR and MARK who made the entire journey exceptional. Both of them were warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly professional. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, informed, and enjoying every moment. Their passion for their work and their genuine care for guests really stood out. I felt safe, welcomed, and fully satisfied throughout the trip. I am extremely happy with the service I received and would gladly recommend LULU SAFARIS to anyone looking for a fantastic adventure. Special thanks once again to CAESAR and MARK — you made this experience unforgettable!

Excellent trip, amazing guide

Lulu provided an truly exceptional trip through five national parks in Uganda! My guide Elvis, was extremely knowledgeable, personable, accommodating, and professional. I wholeheartedly recommend him. Uganda is an absolutely amazing country teeming with wildlife and culture that I'll undoubtedly visit again. When I do go, I will definitely use Lulu. I can't say enough about how amazing Lulu made the experience. Thank you.
