Amazing safari
I went on the 2 day safari to Murchison Falls with the boat trip on the Nile with my husband. Everything from the communication before the trip began to getting dropped off was amazing. The guides Patricia and Patrick really made the whole trip great. Both were very thoughtful and accommodating the whole 2 days. Patrick’s knowledge on the game drives was amazing and he made sure we saw as much wildlife as we could in the short time we booked for. The accommodation was fantastic as well. They provided a delicious meal and at night and the morning there were elephants eating and sleeping next to our lodge. One of the staff at the accommodation even came and got us and let us see the elephant asleep. The falls were also incredible to see both from the boat and the top of them. All the restaurants we stopped at for food was amazing as well. It was really the highlight of our holiday in Uganda. You get to see so much in the 2 days, I only wish I had booked longer. We’re already planning our next trip and would definitely recommend Simba expeditions to anyone considering tours or safari in Uganda!

Definitely get out of Kampala and check these spots out!
Paddy & Patricia were absolutely fantastic looking after me on this luxury safari experience. The care for the customer is excellent with this company. Paddy was an absolute gent, great rapport with every company and stop we had during the trip. He looked out for me having an eggless breakfast, nothing was trouble for the team. So relaxing and fun. My highlight was seeing the giraffes and leopard & lions in Murchison and the Devil's cauldron.

They work hard to ensure every customer feels valued, and we’re thrilled that you noticed their dedication and care.

Outstanding Safaris with Simba African Expeditions
I recently travelled with Simba African Expeditions, owned by Moses Nadduli in Kampala, Uganda — and it was truly an unforgettable experience. I’ve known Moses for over 20 years and can vouch for his professionalism, integrity, and genuine passion for showcasing the real Africa. Every part of the trip was perfectly organized — from the stunning wildlife and breathtaking landscapes to the smooth logistics and warm hospitality. Moses and his team made us feel safe, cared for, and completely immersed in East Africa’s beauty and culture. If you’re looking for a reliable and authentic safari experience, I can’t recommend Simba African Expeditions highly enough. Would definitely travel with them again!
Response from the operator: DEAR SOREN Once again, thank you so much for taking your time to write this amazing review about our services and the good relationship we have shared with your family for the last 20 years. Thank you so much for the continued support and loyalty you have showered us. We’re so delighted to hear that MOSES and the team provided you with outstanding service over the years. Consistently going above and beyond to ensure you have the best experience, your feedback is a great affirmation of our hard work and zeal towards our clients. We are so thrilled to know that we made such a great impression and impact about our African safaris for you and your family. If there’s anything else we can do for you, please don’t hesitate to let us know and we can’t wait to host you and your family once again! KIND REGARDS SIMBA AFRICAN EXPEDITIONS TEAM

Amazing Two Days!
My two-day Murchison Falls tour in August 2025 was absolutely unforgettable! The highlight, of course, was the stunning Murchison Falls themselves. I cannot forget the roar of the falls, combined with the mist rising up! The game drives were equally remarkable. The park is teeming with wildlife. A particularly thrilling moment came when we spotted a leopard lounging in a tree, blending perfectly with the surroundings. This tour included a 2 hour Nile River Cruise, where we had the chance to see a large pod of hippos basking in the sun and cooling off in the water. The professionalism of the guide, Patrick, combined with Patricia's organization of the trip made everything seamless. The blend of incredible landscapes, fascinating wildlife, and the vibrant atmosphere of Murchison Falls left me in awe.
Response from the operator: Dear Maxine, Thank you so much for taking your time to give us the amazing review about your 2 days trip to Murchison falls national park which was unforgettable. We are so glad that you enjoyed your trip and that Patrick and Patricia took good care of you while you were in the wilderness. Thank you so much and we hope to host you once again. kind regards, SIMBA AFRICA EXPEDITIONS

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kampala.
How much does Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing cost?
+
Prices start at $690 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 Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing 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 Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 36 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 Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing?
+
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 Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing 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 Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing?
+
Around 13 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 Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing 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.
What is included in Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing?
+
Included: Visit top of the Falls; Airport pickup and drop-off services; Lunch; Bottled drinking water on board; and Dinner. Not included: Gratuities; Personal insurance; International flight; and Accommodation before and after the trip. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
What languages is Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing offered in?
+

Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private 2 days Murchison Falls and Wildlife Game Viewing?
+
