About The River Station

The River Station is a peaceful and unique safari lodge, perched on the banks of the quietly flowing Kazinga Channel, the river that connects Lakes Edward and George.

The River Station is a long-awaited game-changer for Queen Elizabeth far away from anyone else.

The river features prominently at the River Station: guests will arrive by boat, travel by river taxi to the vehicles for game drives, and enjoy sunset dhow cruises. Better yet, the river is the playground for dozens of elephants and even more hippo who come daily to the sandy shores just below the lodge.
