BOTTOM OF THE FALLS CRUISE

Embark on a scheduled cruise to the head of Fajao Gorge at the base of Murchison Falls. Witness the mighty force of the Nile River pushing through a narrow seven-meter gap, cascading down a forty-meter cliff to the vast gorge below. The power of the falls and the scenic views from their base are spectacular. Large pods of hippo float in the water along the way, crocodile bask on the shore, and herds of elephant, buffalo and antelope can be seen moving along the riverbanks. The river offers excellent opportunities for bird watchers, with a wide range of water birds and vibrant Bee-eaters nesting in the cliffs along the river’ s bank. Daily 8:30 am/ 11 am/ 2:30pm. Approx. 3 hours. Drinks & snacks for sale on board.
