From Lake Bunyonyi, we traveled north to the Kichwamba Escarpment where we stayed at Katara Lodge. Although a little pricey for a family of 5, it was well worth the expense. The manager is a young German fellow who sported a French moniker, Pascal. He has obviously been schooled in the art of hosting. He and his staff were extremely attentive and the personalized service was unparalleled during our tour of Southwestern Uganda. The accommodations consisted of thatched-roofed cabins whose tent netting unzipped to the view of Queen Elizabeth National Park from the height of the escarpment. There was even a full-sized bathtub in the cottage. The food was decent even for us picky Cajuns and the coffee was strong. The lounge area and pool were spectacular. We would have loved to spend more time there and highly recommend it to those looking for something a little more luxurious in lodging.
