When you think of visiting Kidepo Valley National Park, chances are you will stay at the famous Apoka Safari Lodge. The facility offers one of the most remote wilderness experiences in Africa and therefore making it one of the most sought-after Safari Lodges in Uganda’s most authentic wilderness area. Not only is Apoka Safari Lodge’s location enviable but lots of wildlife species visit the Lodge.
Apoka Safari Lodge has 10 spacious rooms built with ultimate comfort in mind, and each of them is marked by natural Canvas walls that surround rocky kopjes with boundless views across the sweeping savannah plains dotted with different wildlife species like buffaloes, warthogs, and others.
The rooms also have a seating area, a private bathroom with extra-large plush towels, bathrobes, and toiletries that are eco-friendly as well as spacious private verandas with hand-crafted furniture for unwinding while sipping on wine or reading a book. The beds at Apoka Safari Lodge are hand-hewn, soft duvets for ultimate comfort, and mosquito nets for protection against malaria. The floors are wooden with hand-woven carpets and each of the rooms has an outdoor stone bathtub where you can enjoy a cold bath with a cup of tea/coffee or soft drink while taking in views of animals, especially the Cape buffaloes and warthogs.
Apoka Safari Lodge has a large swimming pool where guests usually cool off during a hot day, especially after returning from the 3-4 hour game drive. This pool was carved out of a big rock, which makes it worth exploring.
Would you be interested in discovering the pastoralist tradition of Karamajong? They are one of the tribes that have maintained their culture and lifestyle, which are evident from their traditional architectural designs, dressing, cattle rearing, and so much more. This can be organized while staying at Apoka Safari Lodge (at a small fee).
The Restaurant is where more Apoka Safari Lodge magic is uncovered as guests get to taste and enjoy some of the most mouthwatering foods any Lodge will ever offer. Have a taste of local and Inter-continental dishes prepared by some of the best chefs and served by attentive and friendly waiters/waitresses.
Apoka Safari Lodge guests also have the chance to enjoy a sundowner in the middle of the wilderness, where they can get the chance to watch herds of elephants, buffaloes, antelopes and others frolicking in the mud.
