When to go for the sunrise Boat Cruise in Murchison Falls National Park

The Sunrise Boat Cruise in Murchison Falls National Park is available all through the year. However, the best sunrise views and sights of wildlife are enjoyed during the dry season (June to September and December to February) when precipitation levels are lower. The wet months (March to May, October, and November) are marked by higher precipitation levels (more rains) which make it difficult to enjoy sunrise views in addition to having fewer or no animals (African bush elephants, Cape buffaloes, Rothschild giraffes, and antelopes) visiting the River banks for lush green vegetation and water.
