Mihingo Lodge is a fantastic place to stay. The setting is spectacular, with views over Lake Kachira on one side and savannah valley on the other. The restaurant and bar overlook a water hole and salt lick where we saw zebra, water-buck, warthog, eland, impala and topi. The food is superb, and the bar well-stocked. Packed lunches can be provided... More

I took my parents here when they visited Uganda in April 2011, and they still rave about the lodge and our stay. My mom described it as "heaven". We stayed in the Lake Kacheera cabin (worth requesting for the view) and loved the scenery. The walking safari was a good addition, saw interesting animals up close, but the highlight was... More

Having experianced the pleasures of delayed luggage with Kenya Airways we didn't arrive here until later than planned, but from the moment we arrived the stress from that experiance just melted away from the first greeting to the all too quick farewell. From trying to get the well-fed Bush babies to re-appear, to the wonderful food and drinks any of... More

This was a delightful lodge off the beaten track. I chose it because of its proximity to Kampala (an easy quality side trip) and its offering walking safaris right on the premises. The lodge is high quality and knowing that it has been designed with low environmental impact makes me like it even more. I found the cottages (luxury tented... More

When we arrived we felt the place had no real spirit and felt a bit unwelcoming, apparently the current manager was on his way out and a new manager was taking over.Our room was lovely with all the amenities you could want and a wonderful view. The dining area overlooks a water hole and this was enjoyable. Dinner was OK... More

We were not expecting much, because this park (Lake Mburo) does not have the big game of Murchison Falls or Queen Elizabeth. But we heard you can do horseback safari rides and see zebra. Boy were we surprised! LODGING: This lodge is just fantastic - the luxury tent cottages are each built on their own rock outcropping with stunning views.... More

This was a fabulous place. We stayed here for two nights on our way to see the gorillas further south. Everything about Mihingo was beautiful. Rain water was used for all the water and solar panels for electric needs. The swimming pool was great with a great view. The cottages were simple but extremely tasteful-covered by a tent with beautiful... More
