Unforgettable holiday out in the wilderness



Wild Waters Lodge A few consultations with friends led a couple to one of the most unforgettable getaways in Uganda. The bride shares some of the fascinating things about their rendezvous in the wild.

The arrival

The drive to Kayunga where we were to take a boat did not prepare us for the amazing weekend ahead. However, the reception we got from the staff at the Wild Waters Lodge set a good beginning for an unforgettable honeymoon.

Blown away by nature

Everything is curved out of nature right from the furniture to the décor. This was very amazing. Having been built in the wilderness, we felt quite close to nature. A couple of times we saw monitor lizards and once we saw a small snake. However, rather than it being a scary experience, it was pretty exciting for my husband and I.

Being in the middle of a river also makes one feel like they are in the middle of nowhere where they can inhale the fresh air and leave the worries of the world behind them.
Except for the roar of the waterfall, the environment is serene.

Cozy rooms

One thing I will forever remember is the bath tub. It is such an amazing piece of art that I came back home hoping to imitate the design. Likewise, the rooms are beautiful and comfortable; they create an aura of romance. I would have loved to stay longer than the two nights we spent, but well one cannot have everything they desire. While there are a number of activities at the lodge, we never did much but enjoy the comfort of our room and surrounding. The food was continental cuisine which we enjoyed very much.
I felt contented that we never had to fly out of Uganda to enjoy the delights of a getaway. This proved to be a much cheaper honey moon that we had anticipated as each night cost us 360$ (Shs900,000) full board.
