Primate Lodge Kibale
Primate Lodge is an exclusive eco-friendly lodge in the heart of Kibale Forest National Park. It is surrounded by a lush tropical forest that is home to 13 different species of primates, including chimpanzees.
The accommodation ranges from luxury safari tents, comfortable forest cottages to an adventurous tree house. Local materials are used in the constructions and electricity is solar powered in order to minimize the impact on the environment. The 8 luxury tents are raised on wooden platforms and covered by a grass-thatched roof, blending with the natural environment. Each has a private veranda with a splendid view of the surrounding forest. The interior is decorated in African style, with comfortable queen-sized beds, brightly coloured bedspreads and large windows. En suite bathrooms are finished with a natural touch of local stone, bamboo and wall paintings. 7 intimate cottages, furnished with large twin beds and a sitting area decorated with traditional African art, include fully equipped bathrooms and private verandas. |

There is also 1 elevated banda with a sitting area, an extended balcony and bathroom facilities.
Adventurous travellers are welcome to spend an exciting night high up in the remote Sky Tree House, a 10 minute walk from the main lodge.
This tree house comprises a simple bedroom with basic washing facilities at the foot of the tree. It overlooks the scenic elephant wallow and not surprisingly is often visited by the forest elephants at night!
A well-maintained campsite with shared washing facilities is available for guests preferring to bring their own tent.
An open lounge area with comfortable soft furnishings makes it an ideal place to unwind and listen to the chattering of the red-tailed monkeys in the dense branches.
Meals, both international and traditional African dishes, are served in the dining room located in the lush forest greenery.
The lodge contributes to the livelihood of the surrounding communities by involving the local families in different service areas, ranging from employment and the supply of locally grown products to providing handmade crafts and cultural performances.
