Where to Stay while on Safari in Uganda

Staying in Uganda offers a richly rewarding travel experience, where lush landscapes, remarkable wildlife, and warm hospitality come together to create unforgettable stays. Known as the “Pearl of Africa,” Uganda’s accommodation provides a comfortable and immersive base from which to explore rainforests, savannahs, lakes, and river systems alive with biodiversity.

Accommodation in Uganda ranges from intimate forest lodges near Bwindi Impenetrable and Mgahinga National Parks to charming safari camps overlooking the plains of Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls. Many properties are thoughtfully designed to blend into their surroundings, offering cozy rooms, open communal spaces, and views of misty hills, rivers, or wildlife-rich landscapes. Comfort is paired with authenticity, allowing guests to feel closely connected to nature.

Days in Uganda unfold with extraordinary experiences. Trek through dense forests in search of mountain gorillas or chimpanzees, cruise along the Nile or Kazinga Channel, or explore scenic crater lakes and rolling countryside. Between excursions, lodges provide peaceful retreats to relax, enjoy locally inspired cuisine, and reflect on the day’s discoveries.

What truly defines lodging in Uganda is the warmth of its people and the sense of purpose behind many properties. Hosts and guides share deep knowledge of the land while supporting conservation and local communities. Choosing accommodation in Uganda means embracing a journey that is immersive, heartfelt, and deeply inspiring—an experience shaped by wildlife, landscapes, and genuine connection.
