Nile Safari Lodge
A luxury eco-friendly safari lodge overlooking the Nile River
Nile Safari Lodge
Nestled in a remote location with sweeping views of the Nile River, Nile Safari Lodge is a stylish eco-lodge in the heart of Murchison Falls National Park.
The luxury bandas are privately situated along the river, each featuring indoor/outdoor ensuites, private viewing decks, and comfortable swing chairs. The two-bedroom family banda offers two master rooms with mezzanines, where up to four children can sleep, plus a private pool and terrace perfect for family BBQ lunches.
The main lodge, an open-air thatched building, includes a cozy lounge, a large infinity pool, and a floating spa. Meals are served at the onsite Laini Restaurant, which uses fresh ingredients grown in the lodge’s greenhouse.
The highlight of the park is Murchison Falls, where the Nile River plunges 45 meters from the Albertine Rift Valley. Guests can hike to the top for a picnic with breathtaking views or opt for a tranquil boat cruise. The river is teeming with wildlife, including Nile crocodiles, hippos, and a variety of waterbirds. Fishing enthusiasts can enjoy excursions on the river, while others can spot elephants, buffalo, and giraffes that often come to drink at the river’s edge.
As one of the few family-owned lodges focused on sustainable tourism in Uganda, Nile Safari Lodge is an ideal base for a luxury family safari along the Nile River.
