Early morning Game Drive, Boat cruise & visiting top of the falls

After an early morning cup of tea at the lodge, continue to the park gate for a morning game drive which tends to last 3 – 4 hours exploring the park’s attractive wilderness in its authenticity. The activity is carried out in the northern sector of the park which is a renowned hub where numerous counts of wildlife dwell.
Return from the activity and have a sumptuous lunch after which you assemble at Paraa Jetty for a thrilling afternoon Nile launch cruise departing at 2pm heading for the bottom of the waterfalls.
The stretch to the bottom of the falls and the eventual visit at the top of the falls soon exposes you to the thunderous roar of the waters of the Nile; arguably the longest river in the world where it squeezes itself to penetrate through a less than 8m gorge.
Retire from this rather interesting 3 hour activity for relaxation, then dinner and overnight at your residence.
