Cabins in Kasese

The Ruboni community camp was just lovely! High in the mountains you have the opportunity to relax and enjoy nature! The view from our accommodation was just stunning! We really enjoyed our stay there with the walks to the top of the hill and through the forest where we spotted a lot of different chameleons! The staff was super friendly and caring, offering different tours and the food just delicious! You have to be aware, that the mobile service is not running properly, but there will be always a place where you can be connected!

As a tour operator, I booked this place for my clients. The place was super nice and the communication was very effective. We reached a little late and found Eunice and other two staff waiting for us. This was super amazing. We spent three nights at the property. Every night Hippos came in the compound to feed on every night. Hippos come with their young ones. I saw a whole family of hippos. 😜Mama, Papa and baby hippo. They come twice a nice at night Between 20:00hrs - 21:30 and then come back between 2:30 - 4:00 The place is very close to Kazinga channel boats and few km to Kasenyi gate in Queen Elizabeth national park. Since am a Birder, I could always start my birding while in the compound. I took enough Pictures of birds. The birds you are likely to see are;; Red necked spurfowl, laughing dove, mourning dove, snowy crowned Robin chat, white browed robin chat, black lores babblers, pied crow, marabou stork, village weavers, black headed Gonolek, Dideric cuckoo, ....... Then as you join the main road, there's a bush where you can see variety of birds.

The cottages are very spacious. Meals are good. They provide accommodation for 55 K for drivers. The hotel is opposite of the lake, and first morning it was a hippo eating grass all the morning behind the swimming pool. Hotel has a small pool. The local guide Bright- working in the hotel is very nice and useful. He can help to organize better the time of your stay in the area. The manager attend us, Mr. Julius is very effective, patient and nice. The lake George boat trip is very recommendable. The Queen Elisabeth park, seemed to us, much poor of animals, than Murchison National park. The fire by the pool at night was very nice. We suggest to do it every night.

This is a wonderful project by and for the community of Kikorongo, and it is an inspiring experience to see how its tireless staff face every challenge without losing their smiles: No water or electricity mains and yet they have a beautiful garden and comfy rooms and tents; limited ingredients but tasty dishes every day... I have sung with them, danced with them, walked with them, and thoroughly enjoyed the company and the lessons of one of kindest people I have met in my many travels. Thank you so much Jason, Dennis, Kutafi, Felex, Lillian and Karen. In my heart forever!
