High-end
Outside the gate
Locally owned
A small Ugandan-owned lodge of five all-suite cottages on twelve acres of Karamoja grassland, out on the north-western boundary where the park runs up against the frontier. Run all-inclusive, with a restaurant and bar, and the activity list leans as much on culture as on game: village visits with the Karamojong and time with the IK on Morungole, alongside drives and bush walks. It rates 4.6 from fourteen traveller reviews. We list it because it is here and Ugandan-owned, not because we have been able to verify much about it.

What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Kidepo Valley National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryCharged per 24 hours rather than per night.
- $40per person, per day
- VehicleA Ugandan-registered 4x4, the usual hire car, at UGX 30,000; bring a foreign-registered one and it is $150.
- $8per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $264 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
Entry is sold in 24-hour blocks that begin when you pass the gate, not calendar days. Time your exit before your arrival hour and two nights means two days of fees, not three.
The full fee schedule for Kidepo Valley National ParkRates at Zebra Safari Lodge
On request. No rate is published anywhere we can find, and the property has no working website of its own. The price band above is our reading of an all-inclusive, all-suite property and not a figure anyone has quoted, so treat it as a starting point and ask. Everything on this entry comes from the property's own description on a booking platform rather than from a site it controls, which is a weaker source than we normally accept.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.
Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Rates gathered July 2026 from operators' own published rate cards where they exist. Kidepo is unusual: nine of the eleven properties we found publish no prices at all, and several widely-listed lodges could not be verified as operating. Where we show no price, none is published; always confirm directly. Buffalo Base Guesthouse and Campsite in Karenga village was on this list until July 2026. A contact on the ground reports it closed at the start of the year. We could not reach the property to confirm, so it is off the list rather than sending anyone eight kilometres to a locked gate. NAMONI Lodge, Zebra Safari Lodge and Katurum Kidepo Lodge were added on 28 July 2026 after a reader pointed out we had missed them. All three are Ugandan owned. NAMONI's entry comes from the lodge's own 2026-27 brochure. The other two publish nothing themselves, so their entries come from booking platforms, which we say plainly because it is a weaker source than we normally use.
Questions about Zebra Safari Lodge
Is Zebra Safari Lodge good for families?
Zebra Safari Lodge has no website of its own, and the record states no child policy. Everything on its entry comes from a booking platform rather than a site the lodge controls, which is a weaker source, so ask directly what age policy applies before booking with children.
How much does Zebra Safari Lodge cost?
Zebra Safari Lodge publishes no rate anywhere we can find. The price band usually shown is only a reading of what an all-inclusive, five-cottage property like this might cost, not a figure anyone has quoted, so treat it as a starting point and ask the lodge or a Ugandan operator directly.
How do you book Zebra Safari Lodge?
Zebra Safari Lodge has no working website, so booking goes through the platform that lists it or through a Ugandan safari operator. It sits on Plot 104 in Kalokudo village, on the north-western boundary near the South Sudan frontier, with Apoka as the nearest airstrip.
