Murchison Falls National Park — Gorillawise Collection & Safaris

Murchison Falls National Park is Uganda's largest protected area and one of its most spectacular. At its heart is the legendary Murchison Falls — where the entire Nile River is forced through a 7-metre-wide gorge, exploding into a dramatic curtain of white water and mist. The park's wide savannah plains, bisected by the Nile, support an extraordinary diversity of wildlife. Predator sightings are a highlight — lions are frequently seen hunting in the Buligi plains, while large herds of elephants and Rothschild's giraffes (unique to this region) are common sights. A boat cruise to the base of the falls is considered one of the finest wildlife experiences in Africa.
