There is lots to do here at Bakers Lodge. Take a trip to the base of the breath-taking Murchison Falls, or the Nile Delta on one of the lodge’s river boats. Explore the vast savannah of the Northern Bank, or visit the nearby Budongo Forest to track wild chimpanzees.

Deriving its name from the historic English explorer Samuel Baker, Baker’s Lodge is situated on the South bank of the mighty Nile River which transects Murchison Falls National Park. This intimate, safari styled lodge is set within a large private area with direct river access, large shady trees and wetland areas hosting abundant birdlife along the water’s edge. The views onto the river are vast and magnificent with islands hosting nesting egret birds, elephants bathing and pods of hippos regularly viewed.
Each of the ten suites has privacy as well as excellent views either up or down stream. The large, airy facilities are fan cooled, have netted windows, customized solid wooden furniture, hanging mosquito nets and especially selected locally crafted items for the accessories. The en-suite bathrooms are open plan with solar hot water showers and baths with a view in some units. Delicious meals are served on the raised dining deck or directly on the banks of the river, with the soft murmuring of the river waters as a background track. In between activities in the Murchison Falls National Park, guests can while away the hours in the thatched lounge or bar, or cool off in the refreshing swimming pool.
During your safari you will be taken on game drives in Murchison Falls National Park, as well as a memorable boat cruise up the Nile River to the foot of the Falls. The immense force of the water and the views of the Falls are awe inspiring from the close-up viewing points. Your park experience can be enhanced by combining river voyages with a safari.
