"Sandibe Safari Lodge review"
"6 sitings of leopards - great start!"
There's nothing like being thrown in the deep end when out in the bush and this camp had many surprises. We were entertained and surrounded by wildlife: bats, baboons, vervet monkeys!
Game viewing was excellent - we saw 6 leopards in one day, 3 of which were a mother and her 2 cubs. How adorable!
Food was an excellent standard, I'm sure this was where all the pounds stated to pile on!!! Beautiful setting for all our meals too. A great start to our 3-centre stay in Botswana." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 3n in Zambia
"Great game viewing at Sandibe"
The rooms were nice but very dark.
In the dining area in the day time there was a big problem with Vervet monkeys, stealing food and being quite aggressive." See all these reviews: 13n in Botswana; 7n in Zanzibar; 3n in Zambia

"Sandibe Safari Lodge review"
Situation not helped by a south african guide stepping in and literally ruining everyone's day so had to switch guides - his behaviour was completely unacceptable not least to our guide and tracker.
Food was pretty bad but we had been spoilt elsewhere.
Would rather have gone elsewhere." See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia
"Sandibe Safari Lodge review"
However the wildlife viewing was very good. As the driving generally was less vigorously off-road than at Lagoon the animals seemed a bit less easily scared by the vehicles.
The electric boat trip we went on was very dull and restricted and I would have opted out of it if I had known more in advance. Apparently mokoro trips were in theory available but had been pre-booked by other groups.
Seeing elephants baboons and vervet monkeys in camp was very special." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 3n in Zambia
"What a fantastic camp, very impressed"
Having arrived after a long trip the welcome was superb from the people to the facilities and getting straight out on a game drive. The evening meal sat outside was most enjoyable." See all these reviews: 5n in Botswana
"Wonderful time"
Guides were excellent on our game drive and went to considerable lengths to ensure we saw a large amount of wildlife." See all these reviews: 5n in Botswana
