2 Days Murchison Falls Fly-In Safari

The drive from Kampala to Murchison Falls takes most of a day each way; this 2-day itinerary replaces that with a short scenic flight directly into the park, leaving far more of your limited time for wildlife. This itinerary is built around a specific flight schedule to Pakuba airstrip, so confirming the flight alongside your game drive and cruise bookings is worth doing together at the time of booking.

2 Days Murchison Falls Fly-In Safari Itinerary

Day 1: Fly to Murchison Falls National Park

A short scenic flight from Entebbe or Kajjansi brings you directly into the park, with an afternoon game drive and boat cruise to the base of the falls on arrival. On the return leg, this same road carries considerably less traffic in the afternoon, making for a smoother drive back toward Kampala or Entebbe.

Day 2: Morning Game Drive & Fly Back

A final morning game drive across the park’s savannah precedes your return flight. The fly-in schedule on this itinerary means the game drive is generally timed tightly around the return flight, so guides plan a focused route rather than an open-ended circuit.
