"Karangoma review"

4 nights Arrived 20 Mar 2025
"Spectacular new secluded camp in the NE Delta. The helicopter in and out a special treat. Attention to detail here excellent, top notch finishes in the rooms, food quality presentation and selection could not be better. Guiding very good (Lets), his range of knowledge amazing especially identifying and replicating bird calls. Camp staff are superb, loved the welcome singing and so attentive to anything we might need. Enjoyed the boat safari and Mokoro, also did walking safari. Many elephants, hippo and different antelope. Also ostrich, many birds & frogs." See all these reviews: 4n in Botswana; 3n in Zimbabwe

"Karangoma review"

4 nights Arrived 23 Oct 2024
"Karangoma is an extraordinary camp! It is located very remotely and uniquely in a private reserve NE of the Moremi where there is simply no one and nothing but miles of wilderness.

The camp was very quiet and for two out of the four nights we were there we were alone and we were thoroughly spoilt. It feels like staying with friends not in a normal camp. There is no airstrip (at the time of writing this) and we were flown in by helicopter which was thrilling and made the whole experience very special for my teenagers!

The camp is extremely new, smart, exquisitely designed with all the latest mod cons and fittings and very chic and high end design. The staff were very efficient and charming, all bending over back wards to meet our every need. The food was very impressive and well presented.

Our two guides were fantastic, always informative and knowledgeable but also totally in control of the safari, knowing where to go, tracking lion, speeding to follow lion and cheetah for us to ensure the best possible experience. We enjoyed long morning and afternoon drives, sunset drinks every day, dawn tea, bush lunch where we swam in the Okavango river, had a barbecue lunch set up by the river, went on mekoro trips and did a walking safari too.

Temperatures were over 40 degrees everyday at the end of the hot season which was very difficult for a pale blond family from the UK and both my teenage sons struggled in the middle of the day in the camp and one had heat stroke I’m sure, but that was no one’s fault and the staff were very helpful and accommodated a more gentle pace when we asked for it. The pool (overlooking a watering hole) proved indispensable for cooling off!

We saw monkeys and elephant and even lion from the camp which was great fun. A highlight were the sunsets over natural pools filled with water lilies and hippos and our guide giving my son photography lessons! Also, seeing a leopard only a few metres away severval times was a privilege.

It feels like a dream now I’m home and it was unforgettable, I highly recommend this camp." See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe
