Guests stay in any of the 26 double rooms designed as individual and family thatched cottages which have en suite bathrooms, fans, screened doors & windows, mosquito nets, and a veranda to relax and enjoy the commanding views of quintessential Africa. Sambiya allows you to relax in luxury whilst experiencing the sights and sounds of Africa.
Sambiya River Lodge's unique charm is in the atmosphere of intimacy provided to the guests. Ten basic bandas are also available for guest accommodation. The Lodge is perfect for a weekend getaway, holidays and conferences. Allow enough time to experience the uniqueness of Murchison Falls National Park. Exciting game drives through rare Borassus palm forests, incredible bird viewing (more than 450 species have been identified), cruising the Nile in search of the rare Shoebill stork to the base of the spectacular Falls, world class fishing for huge Nile perch, walking safaris and trekking for chimpanzees are activities you will not want to miss!!!

Afri Tours is committed to promoting sustainable development in Uganda. We support the BeadforLife project in a number of ways. For those clients who have the time and are interested, we will take you to the BeadforLife project, where Ugandans work to eradicate poverty one bead at a time. You can help in numerous ways: Visit their store and see how recycled paper beads are made as well as buy souvenirs and gifts that make a difference in people’s lives; visit their model village being built in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity Uganda and help in building homes; or visit Ugandans in their typical neighborhoods and simple homes and possibly sponsor an out of school young person for vocational training which will allow them to move out of poverty. In addition, Afri Tours and Travel Ltd. donate a portion of their profits towards the above project.
