Return to the lodge for breakfast. After lunch, you will safari upstream by boat to the calm Victoria Nile and the base of the falls just tens of meters from the “Devil’s Cauldron.”

There you can marvel at toothsome hippos, crocodiles and over the 17-kilometer stretch, you may also see elephants, waterbucks and Uganda kobs.

This is also the habitat for many bird species including goliath herons, Egyptian geese, pelican bee-eaters, kingfishers, Hornbills, cormorants, and the rare shoebill stork. Dinner and overnight at your lodge.

This is another experience that you will not forget so easily. You will have lunch in the afternoon and thereafter be driven to the top of the falls for a breathtaking sight of the raging Nile as it forces its way through a rocky gap barely six meters wide.

This is the point where the Nile River explodes through a narrow gorge and cascades down to become a placid river. You will also have nature walk around in the park. Today you will transfer to Budongo Eco lodge for dinner and overnight.
