il faut être motivé pour aller dans la la région de bwindi, affronter les pistes et la poussière. Mais quand on arrive enfin dans ce Lodge, planté en haut d'un sommet, couvrant à 180 degré la vue de la foret impénétrable d'un coté, les volcans de l'autre, alors on se pose et ... on apprécie dans le silence. A peine arrivé, au moment du brief sur le lodge, deux charmantes demoiselles sont venues nous masser les mains. Quelle idée folle! un luxe que je n'avais jamais connu auparavant! Benon a été notre accompagnateur pendant notre séjour. Absolument adorable. Souriant, serviable, discret, toujours là quand il fallait, nous avons eut la chance d'être chouchouté par ses soins; Il a assuré les nombreux aller retour de notre chambre à la réception (115 marches assez raides), parce que nous avons choisi de prendre nos repas sur notre magnifique terrasse face à la foret. Un petit brasero Installé chaque soir, un foyer dans la cheminée de la chambre pour réchauffer l'atmosphère qui se rafraichie a la tombé du soleil. Nous nous sommes délectés de ce cadre entre les excursions magiques que nous avons faites, notamment d'aller voir les gorilles. Je recommande ce Lodge vivement! et les service de Benon si vous en avez l'occasion!

We had an amazing 3 night stay as part of our 11 day tour around Uganda. This was absolutely the best lodge we stayed out of all the places during our tour. The setting is breath taking, the views spectacular and the room beautiful. The biggest highlight was the staff, we were touched by how friendly, caring and yet professional they were. And we really appreciated the special celebration the staff did for our wedding anniversary. George and Sam took especially good care of us. They took things to the next level. Thank you!

My husband and I recently spent 3 nights here on our anniversary trip in Uganda. Our stay in this lodge was an absolute highlight! The property is beautiful with breathtaking views! Our room was lovely, very comfortable and well appointed, even with it's own fireplace! Every detail is thought of, from the turn up and turn down service, complimentary laundry, hot water bottles placed in our bed, boots cleaned after hiking, early morning coffee brought to our door, to name just a few things!! While everything about this place was amazing, it was the staff that truly made our time here special. They provide such personal yet professional care! We were made to feel part of the family from the moment we arrived. We were particularly touched by how much effort they put in to celebrating our anniversary with us - they prepared a special cake and sang and danced for us. Special mention to George and Sam who went above and beyond in taking care of us and making us feel special. We were truly sad to leave and can’t wait to return!

We had amazing stay at the lodge. Our room was gorgeous with a view overlooking the Bwindi national park. Service was top notch, our housekeeper Sam and waiters Isaac and Benon were always looking after us. But we have to thank all of the staff for a great stay and especially for arranging the romantic dinner on our veranda for an engagement proposal.

Nkuringo was the most wonderful place to gorilla trek from and come back to each night. I didn't really know what to expect but the place is so stunningly beautiful with massive rooms and fabulous food. But the thing that sets it apart is the amazing staff. Especially George who went above and beyond for everything. I cannot recommend Nkuringo more for your gorilla trekking base.

We enjoyed 3 nights of complete luxury in your resort. All of the staff was exceptional, the meals were fantastic, and our rooms was gorgeous. Issac always greeted us with a warm welcome and looked after all of our requests. Sam made sure that our room was clean and warm on the chilly nights. I loved walking into our room in the evenings to see the fireplace glowing, and finding a hot water bottle tucked in my bed.

Wonderful stay and wonderful service, especially from Benon and Diana, and Vincent the guide. You can do all your activities from here, and overall the experience is fantastic. Would recommend obviously seeing the gorillas, but also doing the lake experience and river walk.

We had an excellent experience both with the property and the team. The views were outstanding and communication with our reservation manager Florence went just a right way. We also went for the unhabituated gorrillas experience that was absolutely different in comparison to the trekking that we'd made in the other park. Certainly worth travelling to.

This lodge has the best view of the Bwindi forest. The food was very tasty and the staff were very hospitable. It was a calm place best for refreshing and relaxation, i envy the gorillas that stay in this area! Nkuringo Gorilla Lodge is the place to go. Thank you so much.
