Stay at Kyambura Gorge Lodge

This eclectic contemporary safari lodge in Uganda has been converted from an old coffee processing plant and is an ideal location for Uganda safari activities including chimpanzee trekking, wetland tours, lion safaris, and much more. Kyambura Gorge Lodge boasts incredible views overlooking the Queen Elizabeth National Park, with the mythical Mountains of the Moon in the far distance.

The lodge has been built using environmentally-friendly, local materials by the community. Accommodation is provided in seven spacious and tastefully designed self contained grass-thatched cottages, with bath tubs/showers with views to the

park, hot and cold running water, equipped with 220V electricity and a private wooden balcony perched over Queen Elisabeth National Park. All cottages are surrounded by jungle and spaced out to ensure ultimate privacy.

There is a swimming pool, adjacent to the camp fire where a local traditional dance is often performed (Banyaruguru troupe). The restaurant and the lounge open towards a sundowner deck which overlooks the National Park. A perfect setting to relax in the evenings while discussing up the day’s activities.

It was absolutely magical. As soon as we turned the corner and saw the first gorilla, I started to cry because I was so happy. They were also fantastic lodge recommendations from the True Travel team! Bwindi Lodge was hands down my favourite, amd we also loved getting out of the car and hiking to get there. As you’ll see, my dream of being close to the gorillas really came true. We had such a wonderful time, and thank you for your help making it come to life.
