Lots of driving but worth it

Eziwoma_A, Mar 2025
I am going to break my review into sections. First I will speak about the tour company Nsheka that ran this tour. I am starting with them because if they did not provide the stellar driver/tour guide Yusuf this trip could easily have been very challenging and a bummer. I was at a location further than the usual pick up locations for this tour and the company accommodated my pick up (for a relatively small extra cost, mainly covering the gas for the extra kilometers). They were at my pick-up location on time even if it meant driving in the middle of the night to get there. Then, when we were doing the game drive, our first go around I didn't see any lions but Yusuf took us back for an evening drive in order to find those elusive big cats which really made the trip feel fulfilled. Next the excursion itself is totally worth the experience, even if it is a lot of driving. I would also say it is worth it to pay the $50 entrance fee in order to track the rhinos by foot. There is an element of danger doing this because if they spook they can charge but that just made it more exciting! And you can make friends with the people you would be tracking with, which was fun for me as a solo traveler. The game drive starting at sunrise was beautiful, it felt like something out of "lion king". During the drive I saw baboons, buffaloes, multiple antelopes, giraffes, elephants, hyenas, warthogs, birds, and a hippo grazing on land. Then this excursion includes a boat ride where we got to see more hippos and elephants, water birds and crocodiles! The boat also takes you to the bottom of the falls where you can really experience the flow of the current and force. There is also the "hike" (though honestly not a real hike) to the top of the falls which we did on the first day there during sunset and it was magical... and wet. Really a beautiful scene. Lastly, the lodge that we stayed at, Nkundwa Nile View Lodge, is both in Murchison falls National Park and also not really in the park either. We had entertainment the night we all arrived which was a lovely treat. This is maybe the only low light of this excursion because the set up of the lodge has no Wifi in the individual cabins. And the most distressing thing was my last night there, there was a bat in my cabin, really freaked me out (make sure to get your rabies shots)! Other than those two things the lodge was really nice and the staff was really attentive and tried to help. The lodge also has a pool which is a big plus! Overall I really enjoyed this excursion and I think it is a great value with some room for customization without it costing too much more. Thanks again to Yusuf for basically being my driver, guide and travel buddy. I had a great time!
