Lake Albert Safari Lodge is situated on the banks of Lake Albert in the Kabwoya Wildlife Reserve. Construction of the lodge commenced in April 2005 and was opened in September 2006. The main lodge with pool and thatch cabanas faces Lake Albert with magnificent views of the Blue Congo Mountains to the West.

The Lodge has been designed and furnished with nature in mind creating a feeling of comfort and relaxation in the African bush. Meals are prepared with fresh fruits and vegetables supplied by local farmers. With friendly staff and home from home atmosphere visitors will find the services and accommodations.

A first of it's kind in Uganda; a tri-partite Contractual Agreement has been established between the Uganda Wildlife Authority, the Hoima District Local Government and Lake Albert Safaris Ltd for the management of the Kabwoya Wildlife Reserve. 

The Kabwoya Wildlife Reserve has great significance, as it is part of the Albertine Rift of Uganda, which is famous for its' variety of landscapes and ecosystems and biological diversity. This diversity is maintained in the continuous string of forest reserves and wildlife protected areas. The areas extend from Mgahinga National Park in the south to Murchison Falls in the north.

The Kabwoya-Kaiso Wildlife Management Area is a significant protected zone within these disrupted ecosystems of western Uganda.  It comprises a 200-sq.km shelf of land between the Albertine Rift escarpment and Lake Albert itself.  It is the only ecologically intact area of savannah along the 200 km stretch of Lake Albert shoreline between Toro-Semliki Wildlife Reserve in the south and Murchison Falls National Park in the north. In it's position in the Rift and in it's proximity to the large Bugoma Forest Reserve, the Kabwoya-Kaiso Wildlife Management Area is of great importance in maintaining corridors for genetic flow in the Albertine Rift.
