Overview

In the 19th century, many English explorers searched, often in vain, for the sources of the Nile. After decades of grueling expeditions, Speke, Baker and Stanley have highlighted that the great river is a two-headed hydra and that the Moon Mountains, Uganda (but being able to prove it) is home to one of the keys to the mystery of his birth. In fact, the great African river has several sources. They feed a complex hydrographic network which, from glacier - the most beautiful continent - to torrents, from rapids to waterfalls, from lakes to marshes, crisscross a large part of the Ugandan territory. The Okavango team, by remonating the maze of the Albert Nile and the Victoria Nile, follow in the footsteps of English explorers. started in the scorching savannah, the journey will end in the snows of the equator.
