On Saturday, the Grammy award winner and his family flew down to Pakuba from Chobe to the waiting purpose-built game vehicles of Heritage Holiday Safaris in the national park.
William Lalobo of Heritage Holiday Safaris who was their guide on the Safari revealed that West was marvelled at the scenery in Murchison Falls National park and that “He is enjoying the magical experience in Uganda”.
Kanye wants to show how beautiful Uganda is. Wants to do more for Uganda.
The American rapper and his wife Kim Kardashian arrived in the country on the Friday afternoon of last week; the couple were flown by chopper to Chobe Safari Lodge located in Murchison Falls National Park in North-Western Uganda.
Murchison Falls National Park lies at the northern end of the Albertine Rift Valley, where the sweeping Bunyoro escarpment tumbles into vast, palm-dotted savanna. First gazetted as a game reserve in 1926, it is Uganda’s largest and oldest conservation area, hosting 76 species of mammals and 451 birds.
The park is bisected by the Victoria Nile, which plunges 45m over the remnant rift valley wall, creating the dramatic Murchison Falls, the centerpiece of the park and the final event in an 80km stretch of rapids.
The mighty cascade drains the last of the river’s energy, transforming it into a broad, placid stream that flows quietly across the rift valley floor into Lake Albert.
This stretch of river provides one of Uganda’s most remarkable wildlife spectacles. Regular visitors to the riverbanks include elephants, giraffes and buffaloes; while hippos, Nile crocodiles and aquatic birds are permanent residents.
