MURCHISON FALLS SAFARI - 3 DAYS UGANDA SAFARI TO MURCHISON FALLS NATIONAL PARK

This 3 Days Uganda Safari takes you to Murchison Falls National Park in North Western Uganda for a wildlife safari and chimpanzee tracking tour. Murchison Falls is eminent for the 7 metres wide gorge where the Victoria Nile is trampled from a 50 metres wide gorge before plummeting off the brim  of the Western Rift Valley into a dew pond 43 metres below. In so doing the most intense cauldron of white water is created and is exactly where you will be those interested in fishing will be! Below the falls the watercourse runs fast and immense, the water is full of oxygen and so the fish are enormously influential, well-known for their forceful combating aptitude, possibly the most dominant perch in Africa.  Fishing is done rapalas and live bait known to be the most victorious for large perch. Fishing other species can be worthwhile counting tremendously hefty catfish (up to 50 Kgs), which can be trapped on dead bait and several other species, caught on small maps and the fly. The diversity of wildlife at Murchison falls national park in the Northern sector also makes  it popular.  On the Shores of the Victoria Nile are hippos and crocodiles whilst lions, leopards, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, primates and many other species can be easily seen.
