3-Day Big 5 Murchison Falls Safari

Highlights

This Big 5 Safari package offers an incredible opportunity to see all the iconic โ€œBig 5โ€ animals โ€” lions, rhinos, elephants, buffaloes, and leopards. Starting from Kampala at 7:30 a.m., the safari takes you through Murchison Falls National Park with game drives, a Nile boat ride, and immersive wildlife experiences. The safari ends on Day 3 by 5 p.m. If you have a flight on the last day, please inform our office so we can adjust the schedule and advise your driver accordingly.

Details Itinerary

Meet your driver-guide at your hotel and depart for Murchison Falls National Park. Along the way, stop at the Rhino Sanctuary for rhino tracking. Enjoy lunch en-route before continuing through Masindi town to the park. Upon arrival, check in and drive through the Budongo forest, visiting the top of the falls where you can walk around and relax. Later, explore the open savannah grasslands to spot lions, elephants, and other wildlife.
Accommodation: Pakuba Safari Lodge

Wake up to stunning views of the Albert Nile. The area is home to many animals such as waterbucks and Uganda kobs that often stay near the lodge due to protection from predators. Embark on a morning game drive to spot elephants, giraffes, hyenas, lions, oribis, and more. Return to the lodge to relax, swim, and have lunch. In the afternoon, take a Nile boat ride to see buffaloes and elephants bathing in the river, black and white colobus monkeys, fish eagles, and kingfishers along the riverbanks. Return to the lodge for an evening game drive and dinner.

Accommodation: Pakuba Safari Lodge

After breakfast, pack your belongings and check out. Set off on a final game drive to enjoy the last sightings of the parkโ€™s amazing wildlife. Have lunch en-route and then drive back to Kampala or Entebbe Airport for your departure.
