Where Every Leaf Whispers A Story!
Your Riverside Escape
Discover Serenity by the Sambiya River. Embrace the Wild, Enjoy the Comfort
Located right inside Murchison Falls National Park, our lodge sits in a quiet valley above the Sambiya River. Sambiya is 12 acres of gardens and open woodland where the bush comes to you – family-run, green and unhurried.
Spend your mornings tracking lions and elephants, cruising past hippos on the Nile, or flying through the trees on our zipline. Then come back to wash off the dust in the pool, grab a cold drink, and watch birds and bushbuck wander through the grounds. Wild days, quiet nights.
