We love spotting the vibrant birdlife that flits through the gardens, and if you're lucky, you might see monkeys or even a shy duiker venturing near the lodge grounds. It's more about intimate nature encounters than savanna spectacles here.

Are there any specific safety considerations we should be aware of when staying at Daudi Courts and visiting Abiba Central Forest Reserve?

We always advise guests to follow the guidance of the lodge staff regarding safety. While the area is generally peaceful, it's wise to stick to marked trails when venturing into the reserve and avoid walking alone after dark. The lodge itself feels secure and well managed.
