Murchison Falls
The Murchison Falls is a must-see for anyone visiting Uganda. The Nile squeezes itself into a 20 foot (7m) gap and then falls for 400 feet (122m) and flows into lake Albert. The best view of the falls is from the top. The Murchison Falls National Park is also home to chimpanzees, hippos, elephants, buffaloes and giraffe. You can take a boat trip along the Nile and bump into more hippos than you ever thought possible.
