A Memorable November Safari Adventure in Uganda with Expert Guide Dalson
Our 10-day journey through Uganda, meticulously planned by Herbert and Weitz Safaris, offered a unique blend of cultural immersion and wildlife exploration. The adventure featured a 9-day safari spanning Murchison Falls, Kibale National Park, Queen Elizabeth, and Bwindi Impenetrable, guided by the exceptional safari guide Dalson. Our voyage commenced in Entebbe, where we spent a day before embarking on the safari. The highlight of our trip undoubtedly was the 9-day safari, covering the magnificent terrains of Fortportal, Murchison, and Bwindi Forest, an unforgettable experience significantly elevated by our guide, Dalson. His profound knowledge and infectious enthusiasm for Uganda's wildlife and ecosystems transformed our adventure into a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Murchison Falls National Park, adorned with numerous elephants and their adorable offspring, as well as playful warthogs, provided a whimsical spectacle. We were also treated to thrilling sightings of leopards and lively lion prides with cubs, showcasing the park's diverse wildlife. The vast expanse of the Queen Elizabeth National Park equally mesmerized us. Here, alongside majestic giraffes and tree-climbing lions, we marveled at the large herds of antelopes and zebras. Hippos added to the variety of wildlife encounters, while playful warthogs and majestic male lions dotted the landscape, making every moment in the Queen Elizabeth memorable. In Zziwa Rhino Sanctuary, our experience reached new heights with a distant rhino sighting, a rare and awe-inspiring moment. We must emphasize the pivotal role of our guide, whose boundless energy and enthusiasm enriched every moment of our safari. Our daily plans were thoughtfully discussed the night before, accommodating our requests for early morning trips when animal activity peaked. Frequent stops for optimal photography opportunities were made, and park navigation was meticulously coordinated with other drivers. Dalson's captivating storytelling and comprehensive knowledge of Uganda wilderness breathed life into each location. His friendly demeanor, sense of humor, and eagerness to share his expertise made our journey both educational and immensely enjoyable. We were fortunate to have Dalson as our guide and driver, ensuring our safety and confidence in experiencing the park to its fullest.

An amazing tour with Weitz Safaris
This was really one of my best experiences out in the wild with my girlfriend. Dalson was so helpful. To be precise I have never felt more at home. His knowledge of the rhinos was impeccable. His hidden spot to get the best view of the falls was really a great way of spending quality time. I look forward to next tour with Weitz Safaris probably gorilla tracking.
Response from the operator: Thank you Pius for your wonderful review. It means a lot to our tour company and to other prospective customers. We look forward to even serving you better with splendid experiences.

Amazing!
This was an amazing experience and I would do it again, thanks to the Weitz safaris team. Herbert was very helpful from the first time I contacted Weitz safaris all through the booking process. The guide was so excellent and made us all feel so at home during the tour. I'd definitely do this again with Weitz safaris.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $1250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kampala usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kampala is not rushed.
Is 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kampala, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kampala can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kampala and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Day Guided Murchison Falls And Zziwa Rhino Trekking Safari start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kampala within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Kampala?
+
On Outty we rank every Kampala experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampala’s Best Experience walking tour, Kampala Walking City Tours (Women-Guided), Kampala Heart of Walking Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Kampala?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Kampala?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
