Where You'll Stay

Red chilli rest camp

Red chilli rest camp

Red Chilli Rest Camp is situated in the heart of Murchison Falls National Park at Paraa, just 500 metres from the ferry crossing on the southern bank of the Nile River, from where boats depart for Falls and Delta trips. It is the only low to mid-budget accommodation located inside the park. Accommodation options include furnished safari tents and bandas — small individual houses — with mosquito nets, comfortable beds, and linen. Room types range from basic twin safari tents with shared bathrooms to en-suite twin and triple bandas, and family bandas with two bedrooms, a sitting room, and veranda for up to five guests. En-suite bandas are fitted with solar hot water systems, power points, and fans. Absolutely no WiFi — the evening campfire is the gathering point instead. The restaurant serves both international and local cuisine from 6:30am to 9:30pm, with the bar open until midnight. Meals are served under a thatched roof with views of the Nile. A campfire is set every evening where guests gather under the stars after a day in the park. Red Chilli has a fully open safari vehicle for hire — lovingly referred to as 'The Giraffe' — where you won't have to compromise your view even from the back seats. Hippos and warthogs are regular visitors to the camp itself, so game viewing sometimes requires no vehicle at all. Murchison Falls National Park is home to more than 76 species of mammals and over 451 species of birds. Game drives on the northern bank offer sightings of lions, elephants, leopards, giraffes, buffaloes, and Uganda kobs. Boat cruises depart from Paraa jetty to the base of the falls or into the Nile Delta

FAQs

  • Uganda is a year-round destination, but the dry seasons (June–September and December–February) are ideal for trekking, game drives and birding. Wet seasons bring lush landscapes and lower lodge rates.

Uganda completely surprised us. One day we were trekking through misty forest searching for gorillas, the next we were rafting the Nile. Everything felt incredibly well planned without losing the sense of adventure. The landscapes kept shifting like scenes in a film, each one more breathtaking than the last.
