    Amazing!

    Max, Aug 2025
    My two-day Murchison Falls tour in August 2025 was absolutely unforgettable! The highlight, of course, was the stunning Murchison Falls. Witnessing the mighty Nile River squeeze through a narrow gorge and cascade down with incredible force was nothing short of awe-inspiring. The game drives were equally remarkable. The park is teeming with wildlife, and there's nothing more amazing than seeing the animals (antelopes, zebras, elephants, giraffes, and a leopard) in their natural habitat. I would definitely recommend this tour if you are in Uganda.

    Extraordinary two days! Learned so much about the nature and the animals. The guide was very intentional about exceeding expectations and so knowledgeable. Logistics to pick up to drop off - all very smooth and pleasant. The area and wildlife is just impressive. Once in a lifetime trip.

    This tour was amazing! I highly recommend it, if you’re only visiting once though I’d suggest the five day hour Simba provide too. For myself I plan to return to do the rest as has limited time to tour. This therefore was great for myself. My guide George was so lovely, he made sure I saw everything possible and knew all the animals, birds, trees not forgetting great spots and rangers in the nation park. I visited the top of the falls (be prepared for spray, but it worth it), then via a boat tour to the bottom, passing by the wildlife in the waters such as crocodiles, hippopotamus, birds, monkeys etc. The heritage safari lodge was perfect, prepare for a real bumpy ride to get there but it’s worth it. Traditional Ugandan huts and beautiful surroundings ontop of really welcoming service and good food. I have a wheat allergy and they went out of their way to accommodate it. I was a solo traveller and just myself on the tour, I felt safe the whole time with George and the people of Uganda are so accommodating and friendly.

    Fantastic tour with the best guide!!

    What a weekend! I booked this trip quite spontaneously and I am so glad I did!!! Frederick from Simba Safaris was the best guide I could hope for. He was kind, knowledgeable, amazing at spotting the animals and knew the names and facts about all of them! He knew places with extremely good food for lunch and seemed to have friends everywhere we went which was really nice. He was very kind and took excellent care of me. I opted for the Ziwa rhino sanctuary add on and that was completely worth it too, it was very special to see these amazing animals up close. All in all I saw 4 of the Big 5 in 2 days (just missed the leopard) and saw so many other wonderful birds and animals such as hippos, antelope, crocodiles and the beautiful nature of the waterfalls, Nile River and the park. A truly unforgettable two days - thank you so much Fred (& Simba Safaris)!
