Travel Guide

Uganda is a great country for safari and being on a boat up the Nile to Murchison Falls is exciting. Make sure you can do the walk along the waterfall as well.

Our first giraffe spotted in the wild. 
The overall vibe of Murchison Falls NP was extraordinary. 
We loved it!
Take a tourguide and drive through the park. Even though it's one of the most popular parks in Uganda, there are not a lot of tourists and you see lots of animals.
