Boat safari on the Nile in Murchison

Boat safari on the Nile is one of the signature ways to experience Murchison Falls National Park — we build realistic day plans around season, drive times, and permit rules so the activity fits your wider Uganda safari.

Boat safaris run on the Victoria Nile to the base of Murchison Falls and on the delta wetlands for shoebill searches.

Boat excursions give water-level views of hippos, crocodiles, and riverside mammals that game drives may miss. Life jackets, park fees, and guide tips are typically bundled into lodge or operator quotes — we confirm timing with your road transfers.
