Stay at the Exclusive Baker’s Lodge on the Nile – Murchison Falls Park
A Murchison Falls Wildlife Safari becomes perfect with a stay at the Baker’s Lodge.
Welcome to Baker’s Lodge on the Nile – Murchison Falls Park, a true gem among Uganda’s top lodges. Situated in the Paraa area of Murchison Falls, this lodge has redefined luxurious comfort and remains unparalleled within the park.
Named after the renowned explorers Sir Samuel and Florence Baker, Baker’s Lodge on the Nile – Murchison Falls Park pays homage to their remarkable journeys through northern Uganda. Setting off from Juba in South Sudan, they embarked on an adventurous expedition to Murchison Falls Park and Lake Albert. While the lodge is a tribute to their legacy, there is also the Baker trail, which we hope to establish in the future.
Strategically located along the banks of the River Nile, Baker’s Lodge offers the closest proximity to the river among all the lodges in the park. Its leading club, adorned with luxurious features, provides breathtaking river views, a delightful restaurant, and a comfortable lounge. Additionally, eight exquisite tented cottages are positioned along the River Nile, offering panoramic views of the river, wildlife, and the abundance of birdlife in the area.
The lodge’s decor, a blend of wood, leather, and tented materials, evokes the spirit of the early explorers such as Sir Samuel and Florence Baker. Their expeditions to northern Uganda in the late 1800s aimed to explore the region and combat the slave trade, which primarily flowed eastward in East Africa.
At the lodge’s dining area and lounge, you’ll find a warm and inviting atmosphere where you can unwind with fellow guests, sharing stories and drinks while enjoying the picturesque views. Despite being in the heart of the African wilderness, the comfort level surpasses most Western hotel rooms.

The bathrooms are generously sized and equipped with solar-heated hot water.
