Intro
Apoka Safari Lodge is in Kidepo Valley National Park, Northern Uganda. When you close your eyes and think of Africa, this is what you see... Voted by CNN Traveller as the "3rd Best Park in Africa", Apoka is the 'chosen' lodge in which to stay. You won’t be jostling for space at the buffet table, you won’t be queuing with other vehicles for a glimpse of a lion or a herd of elephants... in fact, from Apoka, you are unlikely to see another vehicle during your stay.
Highlights
The magnificent sweeping views over the park. One does not even need to leave the property in order to enjoy extensive game viewing... the animals come right to you. The massive outdoor stone baths are glorious, and attention-to-detail is everywhere. The food is outstanding. Return guests are consistent... one never tires of the experience.
