I’m super excited to be staying at Via Via in Entebbe, booked by the staff at the New Court View Hotel in Masindi that’s the nearest town from the epic Murchison Falls National Park that boasts the ‘most powerful waterfall in the world’. It’s my next stop.

Epic Safari to Murchison Falls

The falls raged – our faces wet with the spray of water. Not from any ordinary river but the great Nile. Here we were, my nephew and l standing on sheer rock, spell bound by the force of the falls.

Murchison Falls - from the top. The Bakers' chanced upon it in 1864 coming back from Lake Albert (again they were the first European explorers to see it). Their boat was raised out of the water by a hippo and they had to jump on shore! Copyright: Rupi Mangat
