Meinungen CAMPING NSHONGI CAMP Undurchdringlicher Wald Von Bwindi

Lugar idílico. Esta prácticamente dentro del bosque, nos hicieron sentir de maravilla. La habitación genial. Totalmente recomendable

Muy buena ubicación para visitar a los gorilas de montaña.
Como punto negativo destacamos que nos intentaron cobrar 50€ de más por la estancia.

Beautiful small Camp with super nice staff - very good food and an amazing garden! Perfect place to stay!

Beautiful and peaceful Camp. Lots of birds around. The food is very tasty and the staff is very helpful.
It is a view minutes walk to a little village with craftshops.
We also visited the Batwa Community, organized by the camp - also highly recommended.
Silver organized the Gorillatrecking Permits for us and helped us with the transportation.
Could not be better!

All I can is I had a great time. Good customer service and friendly people!

Stayed at nshongi camp with the owner Silver. Great place, clean and nice rooms, very nice staff.. special thanks to their driver hillary who is friendly, extremely reliable and drives safely. Thanks a lot

Tourist trap: accommodation is affordable, but food is overpriced. Every meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner) is USD10. For this, we got 5 potatoes, few slices of carrots and some beans. Rooms were ok, hence the 1 star is ok.

Nice place where to have a stay

We had a great time in Nshongi camp, Alphonse and the team were really good company ! The view on the forest is impressive and they have a plateforme where you can see monkeys !
Rooms are clean and the food was really delicious, their chef is amazing !
Camp located 5 min walking from the Rushaga park gate.

First of all, I need to thank the owner, Silver, which helped us to get 2 gorilla permit with just one week in advance for the official price (700usd) with no extra fee. There is a mith on the internet about this which is not true and people is buying this permit much more expensive through travel agencies with months in advance.

Second, thanks to all the staff which made us feel like in paradise!!! Bernat, Moses, Charlotte, Alphonse... from the moment of check in we were delighted with amazing service. Congrats to the chef too... we went on bed and breakfast and moved to full board (+60usd day for 2 people) cause meals were delicious.

Rooms are great, hot water showers which is hard to find!! Prices were affordable compared to the expensive lodges in Bwindi.
Contact Silver through whatsapp +256774231913 for your gorilla permit and any question you might have, he is always available to help.

THANKS YOU ALL, AMAZING EXPERIENCE !!

Tijdens onze rondreis door Uganda hebben wij 2 nachten hier overnacht, een geweldige plek midden in het oerwoud. Het personeel is super vriendelijk en willen alles voor je doen. Van uit hier is het heel dichtbij naar het meeting point om de gorilla trekking te doen.
Ook rondom de lodge lopen verschillende wilde dieren.
Nogmaals alle medewerkers van Nshongi camp bedankt!

Great stay in nshongi camp in bwindi impénétrable forest.
Lovely team there , Amazing natural area Space where you Can have thé chance to see blue monkeys, antilopes, bords, butterfly, foot print of éléphants.
Sliver Can arrange for you your trekking gorillas permit

Nestled up as close as one can get to Bwindi’s Impenetrable forest, Nshongi Camp is an easy 10-minute walk to the gate. While you can camp, you’d be missing out on staying in one of the spacious yet budget-friendly private rooms with balconies perfectly situated for a forest-view. The quaint village above survives off of their beautifully hand-crafted supplies from natural dyed woven baskets, wood-carved masks, gorillas and walking sticks, and recycled paper made into bowls and jewelry - all with a view of rolling-hills of farmland and jungle.

The accommodation gives visitors the closest thing to camping out in the jungle - but with electricity, flush toilets, and home cooked meals. Ever-improving, the hot water may take 15-30 min of running to come and the electricity may drop occasionally but this remoteness has its benefits. 3 different types of monkeys swing around in the trees above the dining hut and, if you are lucky, you might be staying when the forest elephants are passing through. If you are even more lucky, the local Gorillas may choose to come sun bathe in the open spaces around camp.

Owned and run by the delightful village- local Silver, he and his employees will go out of their way to make your travel and gorilla experience as smooth as possible at no extra cost to you (a rarity in these parts). Silver can help organize a driver to and from the Rwanda Cyanika border or Kabale, and pre-reserve your Gorilla permit and answer any questions or concerns you may have. Although it’s too small of a village to really get lost, he and his staff are happy to make your life easier and walk you where you need to go or even barter for you at one of the local craft shops. We only had 3 days to pop into Uganda from Rwanda and Silver made it quick and easy for us by organizing a car to pick us up from the border and booking our last minute Gorilla reservation.

About the owner:

You will quickly spot Silver with his iconic sliver hair and calm nature. Growing up in the village, Silver learned that the nearby gorillas were being habituated and decided to purchase the land where he use to garden and started building up accommodation from scratch. When tourism began in the area the Rushaga gate was opened right at his doorstep in 2009.

Bonus for staying local:
Local tour operators are allowed to make a gorilla permit reservation for free and it just has to be claimed within 7 days. So no payment in advance is required, just ask Silver to reserve for you and pay on the day.

Great place to stay, very close to the UWA bwindi office! The service was super friendly, they even provided us with additional spices for the meal which we were cooking ourselves. Highly recommend if you go gorilla tracking

Unbeatable scenic view of bwindi jungle. Very charming set up. Very friendly staff. Nice new rooms (some issues with water supply, but they were working on it). Very close to UWA gate and gorilla tracking starting point. The staff was helpfull in supporting these activities.
