Travel To Murchison Falls National Park | Rhino Tracking | Top Of The Falls | Game Drive

On arrival in Uganda, you will be welcomed and picked by our Kubwa Five Safaris guide who will be holding an A4 paper with your name printed on at Entebbe International Airport and be transferred to Murchison Falls National Park.

On your way to the park, you will branch off to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary for Rhino tracking; this is one of the breathtaking activities done in Uganda.

After the Rhino Tracking, you will be driven to Murchison Falls National Park. Your first attraction in the park will be the top of the falls. It is an exciting experience that brings you very close to the rushing whitewater as it squeezes itself through the narrow crevice below. The resulting mist from the turbulence often produces rainbows.

After, you will go for a short evening game drive before heading to your lodge.

Dinner and overnight at Parkside Safari Lodge.

Travel To Kampala | Relax In The Evening

The day begins with a delightful breakfast after which you prepare to be driven back to Kampala. You will grab some lunch on your way.

Occupying a series of low hills and marshy valleys that roll northwards from Lake Victoria, Kampala has been an important political entity since the mid-19th-century reign of King Suuna II of Buganda. Despite being steeped in traditional and colonial history, Kampala today is a bustling modern capital city situated at the heart of Uganda's road network.

On arrival in Kampala, you will check in and relax at the lodge.

Travel To Lake Mburo National Park | Evening Game Drive

After breakfast, you will be driven to Lake Mburo National Park.

Although it isn't a classic Big Five destination (elephants and rhino are absent, and lion and leopard scarce), Lake Mburo National Park hosts a varied selection of African wildlife, including several iconic species not found elsewhere in western Uganda.

The park’s acacia-swathed slopes and valleys are home to giraffe, zebra, buffalo, impala, waterbuck, bushbuck and various other grazers and browsers. Hippos, crocodiles and aquatic birds thrive in an extensive network of lakes and other wetlands.

On arrival in Lake Mburo National Park, you will have an evening game drive.

Going on an evening game drive is one of the highlights of any safari. This is when temperatures cool, the light becomes softer and the wildlife begins to get active. Not only will you be out when the light is best for taking photos, but it's also one of the best times of day for seeing the animals.
