This game lodge is perfectly located in the Queen Elizabeth National Park. We stayed in one of their tents but it was covered with a canvas rainfly and a thatched roof so even when it rained we stayed dry. The full board option was also fantastic, because all of the meals were delicious. My wife and I ended up ordering different things so we could keep trying a little of everything. But the best part is that because it is inside the national park, the animals come right through the camp. Inside the camp we saw Elephants several times, and could hear both lions and Hyenas. The camp also set us up on a boat cruise of the Kazinga Channel and morning game drive where we saw Hippos, lion, antelope, warthogs, plains buffalo, and so many more things. Patience was the server who took care of us the whole time and even though I had one day of dehydration sickness, she made sure I was stocked up with ginger tea to help me hydrate and ease my stomach.

It was an amazing experience!! .. Excellent service, good accommodation and accessible price. I loved the experience with a sweet visitor (an elephant 🐘) in its camp.

Great location - 10 minutes drive to QENP entrance gate & with many wild animals visiting the area daily - staff will accompany you to your lodge during hours of darkness to ensure you’re safe when it comes to any animal encounters. Really nice lodgings - comfortable beds, mosquito nets, hot showers. Exceptional staff - everyone was so welcoming and took great care of us, from check-in to check-out. The food was wonderful - 4 courses at night, 3 courses at lunch and a big breakfast. Really enjoyed the option to try local dishes, which were all great. Thanks for a memorable stay.

Loved my stay at Engiri. I didn't want to leave. The place, the staff, the warm staff, the elephant and hippos roaming about in the mornings - I loved it all.

I've been there during 3 nights with my mum (it was one of her birthday gifts). The place is cosy, relaxing and peaceful. The staff is very friendly, and welcoming and the meals are all varied and delicious. They also make a fresh "cocktail juice" to die for! We stayed in a tent which was very clean. We had 2 towels, some soap and flip-flaps. We also met John (the amazing elephant), and a hippo on the day we arrived. That was incredible! If you're looking for a complete immersion in the nature, you have found your piece of paradise!

Our experience at the Engiri gaming lodge was far beyond expectations. All kind of wildlife exploring around the lodges and really close at sight for visitors. The staff is super friendly and helpful, (vegetarian) food is exceptional and location is perfect to spot the wildlife that not can be seen directly on the premises. Definite go to when visiting Queen Elizabeth National Park

Our profiles : we’re a French couple, 34 years old. We stayed 18 days in Uganda for a self guided trip. We had our own car (Toyota 4X4) we rented in Kampala. Important : we brought our own tent and pitched it everywhere. It's a great place, and the bar/restaurant offers a magnificent view of the savannah. At night, rangers constantly escort you, and from our tent we heard elephants, hippos and hyenas close by. The staff are smiling and pleasant. We found the showers and toilets adequate.
