Nothing can beat being up close to nature – walking a few paces away from the animals you only read about or see in documentaries. This makes the wild beauty of Uganda even more memorable. From lions and zebras to leopards and elephants, get a glimpse of these wonderful creations in their own habitat. You can’t go wrong by choosing the Murchinson Falls National Park one of the most popular wildlife parks in Uganda. Make sure your walking safari is chaperoned by a local guide with knowledge of the park you are in, of course.
