What's this trip about?

    Today morning you start your Murchison falls wildllife safari and Rhino trekking. On this safari you will visit Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary in Nakasongola and trek the Rhinos. The Rhinos have been re-introduced to Uganda after years of being extinct due to poaching. However the Rhinos at Ziwa Rhino sanctuary are not the Black Rhinos which were previously in northern Uganda. Continue on to the rushing waters of the Nile forced through a 7-meter narrow gorge forming the Murchison falls. While in the park – gaze in wonder at the herds of giraffes on your game drive, families of Elephants while on the launch trip to the bottom of the falls, the Nile crocodiles basking in the sun and Schools of Hippos.

Every effort is made to ensure that vehicles are provided in a roadworthy condition but no liability can be accepted for a puncture, breakdown, damage, or any delay as a result of the poor road conditions.  On most our safaris we use 4WD minibuses (up to eight passengers) with pop-up tops and seven window seats for game viewing. We also use 4WD land cruisers. Groups of twelve or more people who would like to travel in one vehicle are offered 25-28 seat coasters that have about 16 window seats.  Experienced English speaking driver/guides are provided; who will be the only persons allowed to drive the vehicles of Kagera Safaris. The driver’s decision on all matters, such as the route taken, is final. Kagera Safaris reserves the right to alter any route or arrangement, to cancel the operation of any scheduled tour or vary the safari services in any way in the event of unforeseen circumstances, such as road closures, bad weather, problems with national parks or hotels and security considerations. In such cases alternative arrangements will be made as circumstances permit.,
