The lodge is an authentic experience of wildlife and human living sharing the same spaces. It’s really modern and yet traditionally furnished and well maintained! The staff is so friendly and very supportive. The lodge area is clean and they try to avoid unnecessary pollution. Highly recommended!

We had a very nice stay at the Buffalo. The rooms are very spacious, and we can see animals from the restaurant terrasse. Staff are very nice. The pool is lovely, with a few sunbeds from which we can see animals coming around the lodge. Good restaurant with a few options and local dishes changing every day.

An amazing stay. The staff was super helpful in all aspects. Pool overlooking the animals was gorgeous and the food was to die for. Super close to the park with the elephants and hippos wandering through the rooms. Great experience overall! 😀

This safari lodge offers an extraordinary experience! The service was impeccable, and the food was absolutely delicious. The game drives were thrilling, with incredible wildlife sightings. Even better, animals visit the lodge at night, including the charming resident elephant, John. Truly unforgettable!

I had the most relaxing stay at Buffalo Safari Lodge. The staff are incredible. The views are nice, especially by the pool where you can see the animals at the watering hole nearby. They have two wild elephants roaming the property! The lodge is very close to the boat cruise, and to the park. They also took special care to check-in with regularly about my dietary allergies. I wanted to stay for longer, and hope that I can come back one day soon.

Excellent stay surrounded by beautiful nature. We saw a herd of elephants by the pool both days we were here and ran into a baboon while walking to breakfast. Very kind and welcoming staff. Goddard taught us some useful Ugandan vocab and Hillary taught us about many birds around the lodge. Would recommend to anyone!
