Day 1
Early in the morning, our experienced guide will come to pick you up by 7:00 am from where you will be, to start your journey to the best of Uganda’s national park, very endowed with very many animal species. The park is denominated by so-called the big four (lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos). The journey starts from Kampala to Masindi and directly to the Murchison Falls National Park, with a stopover at the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary for rhino trekking. You'll continue to Murchison Falls where you will start being embraced by the scenery of the park, a narrow gorge of 7 meters wide, because of its steepness and violent waterfalls, falling to 43 meters to the sea level. After having memories of the source of the River Nile, you will then proceed for an evening game drive where you will see a great number of game including giraffes, Uganda kobs, hyenas, buffaloes and so much more, and then proceed to the lodge.

5.0/5The guide was very friendly, the accommodation was nice, and the walk for the Gorillaz was very short. I went as a solo traveler and would recommend it.

I went with Moroka Expeditions to 4-day Kidepo valley trek this October and I can recommend them to everyone. All the things were perfectly organized - they picked me up at the hotel and everything was very smooth during the whole trip. I also wanted to visit some local community and they also organized that. My guide William was friendly, professional and also very knowledgable - he is the birdwatcher but knows a lot about all kinds of animals and it was great to learn something new with each trip to the park. Also the car was in top condition which is a necessity in the park and Karamoja region (it is not always like that with other companies as I found out on other trips). Thanks a lot to the whole team and especially William for allowing me to do this trip. Hopefully it was not the last time I visited this region.

Communication was great from the start. Price compared favourably to other companies. The vehicle, accommodation, and food were all great. Loved the Nile river cruise. Saw all the animals who wanted to accept a leopard, which are very hard to spot. Stunning scenery.Our driver was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend recommended

Moroka expeditions, and in particular our guide Collins, was STELLAR! If you can, request Collins. He was very courteous, helpful, reliable, and professional the entire time. A pleasure to be around for the entire duration. Regarding the trekking, it was PHENOMENAL, BREATHTAKING, and MIND-BLOWING! We had the chance to spend an hour watching a family of mountain gorillas UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL!!! We could hear them through the bushes as we walked up. Also, we got to stay at some BEAUTIFUL resorts with EXQUISITE views, food, and service. The restaurants we ate along the journey were local and good as well. Collins (our guide) was gracious enough to give us several “lessons” about Uganda, food, vegetation, etc. as we traveled by car to the various destinations. He made the trip fun, informative, and interesting. Would definitely do this experience again and would most certainly recommend others to experience this. 8 thumbs up!
