You will rise before dawn for an early morning game drive, setting out around six thirty when wildlife is most active. The vast savannah plains of Murchison Falls National Park are home to elephants, Rothschild’s giraffes, Cape buffalo, Uganda kob, waterbuck, Jackson’s hartebeest, warthogs, and hyenas. If you are fortunate, you may spot lions or leopards beginning their hunt in the golden morning light. After the game drive, you will return to the lodge for lunch or enjoy a packed meal before heading to the dock for the afternoon boat cruise. This two to three hour journey takes you along the Nile River toward the base of the falls, offering spectacular views of hippos floating in the water, crocodiles sunning on the banks, and a dazzling array of birdlife including the African fish eagle, goliath heron, and the rare shoebill stork. The boat brings you close to the bottom of the falls, where you can feel the spray and hear the roar of the water as it crashes into the devils cauldron. After the cruise, you will return to your lodge for dinner and overnight

After breakfast, you will begin your journey back to Kampala or Entebbe. A final game drive as you exit the park offers one last opportunity to spot wildlife. You will stop along the way for lunch, with the option to revisit the Equator crossing for photographs and souvenirs. You will arrive back in Kampala or Entebbe in the late afternoon, marking the end of your safari
