Engiri Game Lodge and Campsite

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.

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!
