5-Day Fishing Safari in Uganda

This 5-day fishing expedition in Uganda goes beyond being just a trip; it offers an immersive
experience of Africa’s stunning natural scenery, rich cultural heritage, and the thrill of fishing in
the famous waters of the Nile River. As the sun rises, illuminating the sky with hues of orange
and gold, each day unfolds with discoveries, challenges, and exhilarating moments. The
adventure will lead you to the vast expanse of Lake Victoria, the largest freshwater lake in
Africa, and then to the world's longest river, the Nile, winding through the Victoria Nile, which
flows within Murchison Falls, Uganda's largest national park.
