Engiri Game Lodge and Campsite

We stayed here 12 people for two nights. First of all they tried to make all of us sign a waiver that they are not responsible for any loss of money and property during our stay . Who does that? I am in safari business for 24 years and noone ever tried to make me sign such a document. They tried the same about wild life around the campsite. I did not sign that document either. It is ok to warn the clients but why make me sign a waiver? Anyways… After the receptionist forced me to do so and kept my 11 clients waiting for almost 20 minutes, the manager who we never saw during our stay interfered on the phone when I called him and let us in. The shower water was stinky and I think the smell got stuck on me. My hair got rough because of the water. Rooms were very small, the shower funnily located in the shower to make it leak all over the bathroom. I do not remember anything about the food though it is only one week ago. A waitress named Pamela was the only good thing about this place. When you do not get a warm welcome, nothing can fix that first impression.

The room was beautiful and had a terrace. The end was comfortable and spacious, with bed side lamps, which I didn’t have on many hotels. The food was fresh, healthy and delicious and they were very accommodating with my vegan diet. The staff are so nice! They let me see mama cat and her kittens everyday. The security guard was using his torch so we could see 2 elephants during the night. The only thing I would improve would be to be able to hang the shower to wash your hair. It’s a personal preference, but I much rather a shower than a bath.

Engiri is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. Stayed there for 3 nights in the beginning of june, the tents are comfortable & affordable. Their food is definitely worth it!! A perfect fusion from african dishes with International cuisine!! Close by the Queen Elizabeth Nationalpark this lovely place is a pure natural oasis. You can spot alot of different birds which have their nests next to the main house. If you're lucky enough, you can withness a close encounter with an elephant or an hippo, which passing through the camp mostly during the night. It's also possible to hear the sounds of the hyenas by night!! I definitely have to recommend this place & i will come back soon again.

The staff made this place but the facilities and food were exceptional as well. We stayed in a cabin. The food was delicious. And the staff could not be more helpful. I highly recommend this place. It is located close to where you catch a boat to do the tour.

Tents are simple but comfortable and toilet/shower block is standard, the common areas and raised deck are great. Three things make the Engiri camp an excellent experience overall (1) the staff are incredible, so kind and thoughtful (2) the location, perfect for easy access to several sectors of QENP and quiet at night (3) the mascot (large elephant) that wonders through camp occasionally, not too many. Places can offer that!!!

Had a lovely stay at the campsite. Great food and staff! Also great location in the middle of the QENP. The showers and toilets where clean. In the evening/night you’ll get a guard who escorts you because it’s possible that there are animals grazing (elephants, hippos, buffalos, etc)

This was a beautiful place to rest in the bush. As a vegetarian I do think they need more protein options for us. The sunset on the patio was great with a cold Nile. As for our room we had a “duplex” and you could hear your neighbors as the rooms are beautifully created with wood. We booked a single and had two double beds 🤪 the late night visitor made up for all of this. They did our laundry! It was overall a nice experience.
