Twiga Safari Lodge is a scenic safari lodge on the southern bank of the River Nile at Mubako Paraa, directly across from Murchison Falls National Park's premier wildlife sector. Named for the giraffes (twiga in Swahili) that roam the surrounding savannah, the lodge offers eight elevated thatched cottages with large en-suite bathrooms, private balconies, and one of the strongest location advantages in Murchison — the Paraa ferry crossing is only five minutes away by car.
Guests at Twiga enjoy immediate access to northern game drives, Nile boat cruises to the falls base and Victoria Nile delta, sport fishing, and bird watching at the Lake Albert delta — all without long transfer times. After safari activities, cool off in the swimming pool or relax on your balcony watching hippos emerge from the river at sunset, monkeys in the trees, and birds across the property.
With full-board continental dining in the lodge restaurant and a well-stocked bar, Twiga Safari Lodge delivers strong value for safari travelers who want riverside atmosphere, central park access, and comfortable cottage accommodation at accessible rates.
