Beautiful spacious cottages surrounded by jungle trees and extraordinary friendly staff! - A wonderful place to be! Surrounded by jungle trees in a beautiful environment the spacious and country-specific furnished cottages are perfect to relax after exciting travel days. I really liked... read more the small paths between the cottages and the restaurant. The staff is extraordinary caring and friendly and wanted to make everything possible for us. The food was very tasty and different every day. Richard, the owner, gave us a warm welcome and is always looking after his guests. In Buhoma there are so many things to explore aside the gorilla tracking so it’s worth to stay longer than the usual two nights as most of the guests do (we stayed longer 😀). I’m sure to come back and stay again at Buhoma Gorilla Camp!

Wonderful place with welcoming staff - We really loved the place. Located at only two kilometers from one of the entrances of the Bwindi National Park, it's clearly a perfect place to approach all the activities... read more within this unique park. The lodge is composed by few beautiful cottages immersed in the forest. We were surrounded by greenery and the sound of birds and the flowing water in the tiny river passing underneath our family room. The service was excellent: Richard and his team were super nice and kind, also extremely helpful solving the issues we had with other companies, they made us feel part of a family. This place will remain in our hearts and I really recommend it to anybody wishing to spend few days in exploring this wonderful region and meet the gorillas. You feel the real Africa, in the middle of the forest, and the lodges are wooden made and eco-friendly. I can strongly recommend this place where we hope to soon be back

Perfect family owned lodge! - Buhoma Gorilla camp staff, thank you for making me feel so welcome!
I was the only guest and you made me feel like a princess! I stayed at... read more Buhoma Gorilla camp for two nights and had an amazing time. The staff was very welcoming when I arrived. They gave me the biggest room even though I was travelling alone. The room was very spacious but still cozy because of the nice decorations. At first my shower didn't give hot water but when I told manager Joshua about it, it was fixed very quickly so I was able to enjoy a nice hot shower with good water pressure.
Also the restaurant/ lounge area is very cool! It's upstairs and they have these super comfortable couches to sit on. I spend a lot of time there using Wifi (which works very well) or just talking to the staff! Richard Magezi (the owner) also came to talk to me and have breakfast together which was very nice, thank you for joining me!
Location is perfect for gorilla tracking , which I didn't do because I already did a tracking in january this year. It's very close to the park entrance so you don't have to get up super early and drive far to start the tracking. I did one of the nature walks in the area which was also stunning.
You can really notice it's a family business, everybody is really involved and very kind! I highly recommend staying here.
I hope to be back soon!

You can... read more see it has been planned and built by someone very knowledgeable about nature and sustainable tourism, when you are in your lodge you feel like you are in the jungle, there's also a nice stream you can enjoy the relaxing sound of. everything has been built respecting the style of the country, great wood everywhere. The staff also has been chosen carefully, you see a great team working together, friendly among them and with the guests. Everybody has been kind, anticipating our wishes, and helpful. Buhoam Gorilla Lodge is also very conveniently located. Uganda is an amazing country, and safe to travel to, but the extra help and needed suggestions you can get from Richard, the super kind and fun to be with owner, make your journey smooth besides unique.

Later in the evening we were having my Birthday celebration together with htl Manager Magezi Richard amazingly cultured and polite man who is globally aware so we have a lot of things to talk about.
All of a sudden lights went out and we heard a staff singing "Happy Birthday to You" song entering into canteen and bringing a birthday cake ordered earlier by our wonderful guide Muzamilu Chance the owner of Chance Tour Uganda. It was absolutely unforgettable moments and I really enjoyed it.
I would highly recommend Magezi Richard as your next host in Uganda.
Thank you so much!

Like staying with family. - Staying at Buhoma Gorilla Camp was like staying with family. I have never stayed in a place where everyone was so kind and so friendly. The camp itself is beautiful.... read more The cottages are gorgeous and spacious and in a wonderful contemplative setting. The food is also great. Each meal was delightful during the three days that I was there, especially the multiple course dinners. The staff were so incredibly kind that I was sad when it came time to leave. They made sure that all my needs were met and they were very knowledgeable about things to do in the area in addition to visiting Bwindi. They really cared about my welfare and wanted me to have the best experience I could. As I said before, they made me feel like part of a new family. I was there by myself on this trip and I intend to return here with my kids in the near future. This is an amazing place with amazing people.
