"Lebala Camp review"
We had a lot of laughs with guide, Thabo and Shoes the spotter, who both pulled out all the stops to find animals we really wanted to see." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana
"Amazing sightings at Lebala"
The only remark is that the light breakfast before the morning game drive was really light on food offering, muffins only." See all these reviews: 6n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa
"Top Class Lebala Camp"
The food and most of all our guides. Our safari trips were fantastic, our guide, Bali Raja and Otti ( not sure about spelling)
Made every trip exciting and amusing with his tales of the animals." See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana; 6n in South Africa; 2n in Zimbabwe
"Brilliant game viewing at Lebala"
Our guide and tracker for the three days were Patna and Shoes: both excellent, listened to what we were interested in and found an amazing amount of game with leopard, cheetah and wild dogs being the mammal highlights. Also identified lots of birds as requested. We asked for an aardvark - and Shoes found one, only for it to disappear down its hole before any of us saw it!
The only one of our camps to use trackers, and as a result the one with the best game. Mark got a birthday cake and a song! And please pass on our thanks for forwarding the adaptor we left behind, which arrived later by personal delivery on our plane to Kanana!" See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia
"Wild dogs at Lebala!"
The spacious tents were of interesting construction and has a wonderful view over the marshes - elephants regularly passed by.
The daily routine was slightly different with early breakfast of cereal and muffins before the morning drive and then a substantial brunch on return. All the meals were excellent and shared with our guides.
A highlight was the encounter with a pack of 14 wild dogs, chase and subsequent kill." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe
"Great introduction to Kwando camps"
The camp was full and we felt that this was the maximum number of other guests that we would want to interact with on this sort of holiday." See all these reviews: 8n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe
"Highlight!"
Our guide, Sughur (sp?), was just wonderful, quietly confident, highly professional. We felt very safe in his and the tracker's company. We had lots of laughs. We had great jeep-mates, coincidental, but it added to the overall enjoyment.
We had many exciting wildlife viewing experiences, some of which made the heart beat faster! But we did not see many cats, a disappointment, but not anyone's fault." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia; 9n in Botswana
