Where You Stay
Is Part of the Safari.
A curated collection of camps and lodges chosen for their location, guiding, character, hospitality and connection to the wilderness.
Chosen for More
Than Comfort.
The places we recommend are selected for more than how luxurious they appear.
Location, guiding, wildlife, character, hospitality, conservation values and photographic value all help determine whether a camp belongs in a Hammerkop journey.
The right camp should strengthen your connection to the wilderness around you.
Extraordinary Locations.
Intimate properties chosen for their sense of place and connection to the wilderness.
What We Look for
in Every Stay.
The camps and lodges we recommend are chosen for qualities that add something meaningful to the safari — not simply for their star rating.
Remarkable Location
Places selected for their setting and connection to the landscapes and wilderness around them.
Exceptional Guiding
Guiding is an important part of how each place is experienced and understood.
Wildlife & Photography
Properties are considered for their access to wildlife and the photographic opportunities they can offer.
A Sense of Place
Camps with character that feel connected to their surroundings rather than separate from them.
Warm Hospitality
Thoughtful hospitality that becomes part of the overall safari experience.
Conservation Values
We consider the conservation values associated with the places we recommend.
Every stay should belong to the journey around it.
A Stay Chosen Around
Your Journey.
The right accommodation depends on where you are going, how you want to travel and the level of comfort that suits your safari.
Chosen for
Where You Go.
Camps and lodges selected to work naturally with the route and places that shape your safari.
The Kind of Stay
That Suits You.
Accommodation considered around the way you prefer to travel and experience each destination.
Comfort That Fits
the Journey.
Your preferred level of comfort is considered separately from the experiences that draw you to Africa.
The individual camps and lodges recommended for your journey will form part of your safari proposal.
Kasenyi Safari Camp
Hammerkop's roots include the experience of building and operating Kasenyi Safari Camp beside Queen Elizabeth National Park in Uganda.
Kasenyi taught us that the most memorable safaris are about more than an itinerary. They are about the people who welcome you, the landscapes you discover, unexpected encounters with wildlife, and the feeling of becoming connected to a place.
After years of welcoming travellers to Kasenyi Safari Camp, Hammerkop grew from that experience — taking the same personal knowledge, African hospitality and sense of place beyond Uganda.
We live here, operate here and have a home in the wilderness.
