About

Come for the lakeside sundowners and live band rather than the food — the setting on Lake Victoria is the real draw. The fish fillet in coconut sauce and bhajia chips are solid when you do eat, and it's a great spot for a relaxed solo or group afternoon.

    Nice location for chilling and of course some live band. Their food isn't that Itttttt. But location is everything for a chill afternoon solo or partner date

    Been coming to Dunga since 2018. Of all the Lakeside venues this one is the pick of the bunch. Heaps of parking, friendly hostesses, boat rides on the Lake if you want. Live bands with a dedicated stage Food and drink at a reasonable price given the location on the Lake. 200 Bob to get your car washed And it’s the only Lakeside venue where I’ve actually spotted a Hippo! My daughter says Daddy there’s a crocodile. I turn and there’s a Hippos head popping out of the water seven meters away. Made my day a real Hippo in the wild. Live bands are cool

    If you looking to camp, look elsewhere. If you looking for a chill evening over music from a band by the beach and a great sundowner, by all means this is one of the best places. Back to camping, the place seems to have overgrown camping and prioritise other things instead. Its not a place you camp twice. For camping, i recommend KWS Impala Sanctuary which is closeby

    We came here for lunch and really enjoyed the lakeside atmosphere and the food : fish fillet in coconut sauce, veggie rice, bhajia chips, skumawiki and grilled tilapia. According to the waiter camping still allowed for 700ksh ppn. He said live music is only on Fridays and Saturdays. If you like a chill bar atmosphere you'll enjoy it but if you're looking for a peaceful place I wouldn't risk it anyway... Your choice.

    Dunga Hill Camp sits right on Lake Victoria, offering beautiful views and an even better atmosphere. The samosas are shareable and an absolute must-try! The staff were so pleasant — they made us feel more like friends than customers. The highlight of our visit was the live music, which created the perfect backdrop for enjoying good food and drinks by the water. It’s a great spot to relax with family and friends, soak in the scenery, and enjoy the great vibes all around. Highly recommend Dunga Hill Camp for anyone visiting Kisumu, Kenya.
