Euphorbia Safari Lodge is every nature lover’s true home away from home and provides something exceptional from the ordinary. For travelers exploring Queen Elizabeth National Park, this Lodge is the place to relax in the heart of the wilderness as well as get an opportunity of getting immersed in the local culture and traditional village life around Kasenyi Landing Site, along the shores of Lake George.
This beautiful safari lodge was established by Pascal Jobogo, with a unique story of his own, sitting on a piece of land that was gifted by the local community. This was after more than a decade of dedication to the people of Kasenyi where he was dedicated to building schools, providing clean water, building latrines, constructing health facilities as well as providing solar power to a community of over 2,500 people.
