Embark on a captivating six to seven-hour journey to uncover the marvels of Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda's largest expanse of wilderness. Here, witness the awe-inspiring spectacle of the world's longest river, the Nile, as it surges through a narrow chasm in the Rift Valley, plummeting 40 meters into a tumultuous pool below. This habitat serves as an idyllic sanctuary for a wealth of wildlife, including abundant hippos and crocodiles, as well as rare and exclusive species like the Shoebill stork.

Meals & Drinks:
Following breakfast at the hotel, venture to the Budongo Forest Reserve to rendezvous with your companions for an exhilarating chimpanzee trekking expedition. Nestled within Murchison Falls National Park, this semideciduous rainforest boasts one of East Africa's largest mahogany forests. As part of the habituation research, you'll assist the trackers in their daily duties, including "de-nesting" the chimps, trailing them through the dense undergrowth, and documenting their activities throughout the day.
As the day progresses, the chimpanzees typically retire to their nests, marking the culmination of the experience. This affords you the opportunity to observe these captivating relatives of ours up close and gain insight into their social dynamics. Regrettably, the chimpanzee population in Uganda is dwindling, with just over 5000 remaining.
