4-Day Big 5 Uganda Safari with Rhino Sanctuary
Day 1 - Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary
- Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at your hotel or Entebbe Airport, where your private driver, with 16 years of experience, picks you up in a comfortable safari Land Cruiser.
- From there, enjoy a scenic drive to Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, Uganda’s only rhino sanctuary, home to 47 rhinos, including a newborn this February. This offers a rare chance to observe these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. Upon arrival, check into your accommodation and choose to either relax and soak in the surroundings or embark on a guided nature walk.
- Driving Time: 4 hours
Day 2 - Rhino Trekking and Murchison National Park
- Start your day with a rare and unforgettable experience — tracking rhinos on foot in the only place in Uganda where wild rhinos roam freely. This guided walking experience, led by expert rangers, allows you to approach these endangered giants safely and observe them at close range in their natural environment. After the trek, continue your journey north to Murchison Falls, Uganda’s largest and oldest national park. As you drive through the savannah, keep your eyes open — wildlife like giraffes, elephants, and antelopes are often seen even before you reach the lodge.
- Driving Time: 3 hours
Day 3: Safari and Nile Adventure in Murchison Falls NP
- Start your day with a morning game drive as we search for the rest of the Big Five — lions, leopards, elephants, and buffaloes. Wildlife is very diverse here, with good chances of spotting giraffes, Uganda kobs, Jackson’s hartebeest, bushbucks, hyenas, and warthogs.
- In the afternoon, embark on a boat safari along the Nile, the longest river in the world, heading upstream to the base of Murchison Falls — the most powerful waterfall on the planet. Watch as the entire Nile squeezes through a narrow 7-meter-wide gorge before crashing 43 meters down with incredible force. Along the way, enjoy excellent wildlife viewing, spotting hippos, Nile crocodiles, and elephants along the riverbanks.
- Driving Time: N/A
Day 4 – On Top of the World’s Most Powerful Waterfall
- We start the day with a final drive through Murchison Falls National Park. Early morning offers great chances to spot hyenas and other wildlife, so keep your camera ready.
- Our last stop in the park is the top of Murchison Falls — where the entire Nile surges through a 7-meter gap in the rock. The sound, the spray, and the sheer force make this one of Africa’s most dramatic natural sights. Soak in the breathtaking views and the raw energy of nature before we head back to Entebbe.
- Driving Time: 6-7 hours
