The last place I’ll be writing a separate report about is Murchison Falls National Park. Uganda offers the best of both worlds with excellent rainforest and also excellent savanna where the more typical African animals can be found such as Lions, Giraffes, Elephants and so forth. During our trip, we visited several typical savanna parks, including Lake Mburo, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and finally Kidepo National Park. Personally, I thought Murchison Falls was the most beautiful location of the four, which is why the post will focus on this park. Of course I can’t help, but name a few of the highlights from the other parks as well!
In March 2023 I had been traveling through India for about three weeks. From an unexpected start at the Taj Mahal, I went to the high Himalayas where I saw Snow Leopards and Pallas’ Cats. We then headed to the forests on the foothills of the Himalayas in North East India, close to the Bhutanese border, where we had an interesting week at Eaglenest Wildlife Sanctuary. So we had already seen a lot of beautiful things, but one specialty of India was still missing: the Tiger! I felt like I just couldn’t miss this iconic big cat so I planned a few days at Pench Tiger Reserve to spend my last week. In this reserve we would have a good chance of seeing a Tiger, but there was also supposed to be a black Leopard around. We wanted to see that one too of course. After the hardcore mammalwatching, it was now time for some classic safaris!
