Kasenyi Safari Camp

Tucked away in the stunning landscapes of Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kasenyi Safari Camp offers a lovely and intimate retreat. Perfect for those seeking a peaceful yet adventurous getaway, this camp combines comfort, natural beauty, and incredible wildlife experiences.

Set at the edge of the Kasenyi Plains, the camp boasts a prime spot known for its wildlife and gorgeous savannah views. This area is a hotspot for seeing wildlife, especially lions, thanks to the plentiful Uganda kob that makes up their diet. Besides the big cats, the plains are also home to elephants, buffalo, and countless bird species, making it a true haven for wildlife watchers and photographers alike.

The camp’s proximity to Lake George and the Kazinga Channel enhances its scenic appeal. These nearby water bodies are bustling with life, including hippos and crocodiles, and offer fantastic opportunities for boat safaris.

At Kasenyi Safari Camp, you’ll find spacious, well-furnished tented cottages designed to blend in with the surrounding nature. While retaining the authentic safari vibe, the tents have modern comforts like en-suite bathrooms, hot showers, and private decks that provide breathtaking savannah views. Elevated on wooden platforms, these cottages let you enjoy the refreshing breeze and uninterrupted sights of the wilderness.

After a day of adventure, you can unwind in this rustic charm and luxury balance. Soft linens, tasteful décor, and thoughtful amenities ensure every stay is both relaxing and enjoyable.

The camp’s restaurant serves delicious meals crafted from fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Guests can savour various dishes, from Ugandan classics to international favourites, all enjoyed in a relaxed dining area with stunning landscapes. Whether sipping morning coffee at sunrise or enjoying a sundowner after a day of exploration, the warm hospitality at Kasenyi Safari Camp makes every moment special.

One of the standout features of staying at Kasenyi Safari Camp is the unrivalled access to incredible wildlife. Expertly guided game drives offer chances to spot lions, leopards, hyenas, and more in their natural environment. Birdwatchers will be thrilled to see some of the park’s 600+ bird species, including the majestic African fish eagle and the vibrant malachite kingfisher.

Apart from game drives, guests can embark on boat safaris along the Kazinga Channel, where hippos, crocodiles, and various water birds are almost always in sight. Walking safaris are also available for those wanting a closer look at the landscape and its smaller, often overlooked flora and fauna.

Kasenyi Safari Camp is perfect for anyone seeking a more personal and intimate safari experience than larger lodges.
