Uganda Visa For Tuvaluan Citizens - Requirements & Fees

The Nile Delta in Murchison Falls Park

The Nile Delta at Murchison Falls Park is a fascinating destination to explore in Uganda. The Nile Delta, where the great river rushes into Lake Albert after traveling past the breathtaking Murchison Falls, is one of the most interesting destinations to visit in Uganda. My wife and I spend a lot of time camping in the woods. It's a fantastic and thrilling opportunity to see Uganda's beautiful scenery and animals.

Countless animals visit the river every night and day to drink water before traveling upstream to find food. In the evening, just after daybreak, explorers can easily find hippos, Ugandan kob, giraffe, waterbuck, buffalos, elephants, and many other species near the river. Evening soundscapes are incredible, with hippos grunting and lions roaring nearby!
