Day 1: Arrival and Transfer To Murchison Falls

Start your tour with pickup from your hotel or residence in and around Kampala or Entebbe in the early morning on Day 1. Pick up a packed breakfast from local popular diners on the way to the park in Nakasongola town. Arrive at the park in the mid-morning and enjoy a 45-minute hike to the top of Murchison Falls, where you can expect to get wet. Head to your accommodations, check-in, and get lunch. Drive to the boat departure point and embark on a 2-hour boat trip along the banks of the Nile to the bottom of the falls. If you’re not too tired from the early morning and the activities so far, enjoy an evening game drive.

On Day 2, enjoy a sunrise game drive and take the ferry crossing to the southern sector of the park. Guests selecting the 3-day/2-night option can sleep in and enjoy an all-morning game drive, break for lunch, and rest or enjoy an evening game drive on Day 2. Depart for Kampala and enjoy a taste of local staple delicacies for lunch en route back to Kampala.

8. Understanding of Risk and Assumption of Risk
You hereby acknowledge that you have voluntarily applied for the trip / tour designated by your booking agent or on this receipt or form. I understand that you may travel to remote countries and areas that are inherently risky and that may include high degrees of danger from natural and human factors, and other similar activities associated with foreign travel. You are prepared to assume the risks associated with this trip / tour including: forces of nature; terrorism; civil unrest; war; accidents; and transportation including land vehicles, boats, and aircraft that are not operated or maintained to standards found in your country.

You also assume risks associated with altitude, illness, disease, physical exertion, and alcohol consumption, knowing that access to evacuation and/or suitable medical supplies and support may not be available. By signing, clicking, responding, taking a tour, or proceeding any further past this point of communication, you agree to take full responsibility for your own actions, safety and welfare, except for unanticipated events including injury, illness, emotional trauma, or death. You also understand that you will be a member of a group and will conduct yourself in a way that will not endanger the group or yourself. You understand that if you fraudulently represent yourself as fit for this trip, you may be removed prior to or during the trip at your own expense. You agree to these statements in totality without plan to pretend you didn’t know or expect any of these absolutely crucial requirements.

By booking with us you understand that travel, international and domestic, is not an inherently predictable or safe activity. It can be as safe as a day at home in your country, but it involves a risk of delay, theft, injury, disease, or death. By taking a tour and making a contract with us you are waiving your right to sue or seek legal action against compensation from us through any lawsuit, at home and abroad. You understand that travel is subject to all sorts of unpredictable forces and many known risks in the country in which you live and depart from, the transportation that conveys you, and the places in which we operate. You are to examine the country in which we provide tours closely and decide for yourself whether you would like to make a contract with us, and if you decide to make this contract then you waive your right to seek compensation for any minor and severe misfortunes, including but not limited to injury and death. You are to read the news and keep updated on the situation on the country. We have no liability to you for any cost, loss or damage, nor if you cancel mid-trip, will we refund you the cost of any unused portion of your travel arrangements. In addition, you understand that tours with wildlife or nature are subject to the forces of nature and the decisions of the animals and circumstances of weather. On any given tour it is not guaranteed to see the animals you wished for, that inhabit the destination, or to have the most ideal weather to see the destination itself.

  • international or internal flights unless specified
  • airport taxes and excess baggage charges unless specified
  • meals in the city hotels
  • Visa and passport fees
  • travel insurance
  • Optional activities and all personal expenses.

10. Prices & surcharges
We reserve the right to impose surcharges up to 30 days before departure due to unfavorable changes in exchange rates, increases in airfares or other transportation costs, increases in local operator costs, taxes or if government action should require us to do so. In such instances we will be responsible for the first 2% of the additional costs and you will be responsible for the balance. If any surcharge results in an increase of more than 10% of the trip price you may cancel the booking within 5 days of notification of the surcharge and obtain a full refund.

11. Age & Health requirements
Minimum General Policy: For the majority of our trips the minimum age for children is 12. All travelers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult who is responsible for the child’s day-to-day care. Please note we cannot guarantee triple or joining rooms for families; accompanying adults may be required to share with others in the group on a twin share basis.  The minimum age for gorilla trekking is 15 years.

Maximum General Policy: For the majority of our trips we have no upper age limit, though we remind you that gorilla and chimp tracking can be physically demanding and a Self-Assessment form is required for all people 70 years and over.

We are able to provide details on mandatory health requirements; however, we are not medical experts. It is your responsibility to ensure that you obtain proper and detailed medical advice at least two months prior to travel for the latest health requirements, recommendations for your destination and any costs. Where you do not do so and either are not allowed to enter any country, or suffer personal injury or death as a result, we have no liability to you for any cost, loss or damage which you suffer nor will we refund you the cost of any unused portion of your travel arrangements.

12. Passport and visas
You must carry a valid passport and have obtained all of the appropriate visas, permits and certificates for the countries in which you will visit during your trip. Your passport must be valid for six months beyond the duration of the trip. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are in possession of the correct visas, permits and certificates for your trip; please refer to the website or contact us for details. We are not responsible if you are refused entry to a country because you lack the correct passport, visa or other travel documentation.

13. Travel insurance
Travel insurance should be taken out at the time of booking for any trips. Your travel insurance must provide cover against personal accident, death, medical expenses and emergency repatriation. We also strongly recommend it covers cancellation, curtailment, personal liability and loss of luggage and personal effects.

14. Flexibility
You appreciate and acknowledge that the nature of this type of travel requires considerable flexibility and you should allow for alternatives. The itinerary provided for each trip is representative of the types of activities contemplated but it is understood that the route, schedules, itineraries, amenities and mode of transport may be subject to alteration without prior notice due to local circumstances or events. We will however in the best of our ability and in consideration of safety and time include all of the components stated in our product itineraries.

15. Change of itinerary
While we endeavor to operate all trips as described, we reserve the right to change the trip itinerary.

Before departure: If we make a major change we will inform you as soon as reasonably possible, if there is time to do so before departure. The definition of a major change is deemed to be a change affecting at least one day in five of the itinerary. When a major change is made you may choose between accepting the change, obtaining a refund of money paid on the land portion of the trip only or accepting an alternative tour offered.

After departure: We reserve the right to change an itinerary after departure due to local circumstances or events outside of our control. In such emergency circumstances the additional cost of any necessary itinerary alterations will be covered by you: please note that by booking a tour or service you also hereby agree to carry emergency funds to be used in such instances, just as embassies require proof of means of subsistence to enter some countries. Please note we are not responsible for any incidental expenses that may be incurred as a result of the change of itinerary such as visas, vaccinations, or non-refundable flights.

16. Authority on tour
Our group trips are run by our professional guide. The decision of our guide is final on all matters likely to affect the safety or well-being of any person participating in the trip.

You must at all times comply with the laws, customs, foreign exchange and drug regulations of all countries visited, and you also agree to travel in accordance with our travel guidelines. Antagonism of the tour and customer service staff on a trip and harassment or insulting of guides will lead to termination from a trip without refund.

17. Acceptance of unknown factors
You acknowledge that the nature of the trip is adventurous and participation involves a degree of personal risk. You will be visiting places where the political, cultural and geographical attributes present dangers and physical challenges greater than those present in our daily lives.

We use information from government foreign departments and reports from our own contacts in assessing whether the itinerary should operate. However, it is also your own responsibility to acquaint yourself with all possible relevant travel information and the nature of your itinerary. You acknowledge that your decision to travel is made in light of consideration of this information and you accept that you are aware of the personal risks attendant upon such travel.
