Game drive in Murchison Falls NP

Time for a game drive in Murchison Falls National Park, the biggest national park of Uganda! The park is divided in two by the Nile river: the Southern sector is mainly covered by dense forests, so we do the game drive in the vast savanah plains in the northern sector. Here, you will have the chance to spot many giraffes, elephants, buffalos, Ugandan kobs, warthogs, as well as the mighty lions or, if you're lucky, the elusive leopard.

Rhino tracking at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary

Ziwa was established in 2005, in an effort to reintroduce white rhino in Uganda, after they had been extinct due to poaching. Initially, six rhinos from different parts of the world were brought to the sanctuary, and there are now about 40 rhinos! The aim of Ziwa is to raise awareness with the local communities and eventually re-introduce the rhinos into the wild. Accompanied by a ranger, visitors get the opportunity to track the rhinos through the bush, and spend a bit of time with these beautiful creatures.
