"Mushara Lodge review"
"Beyond Exceptional"
only comment: private Safari could be better, the guide was not as lively as what we experienced in all the other lodges (and we decided as a result to cancel one activity and do it on our own)" See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"Mushara Lodge Reivew"
One comment we would make was that it just had a slightly more commercial feel to it after all the other Lodges we stayed in. However, we enjoyed our stay and the surroundings were very pretty. It was a great location to explore the eastern side of Etosha and we thoroughly enjoyed the Lodge's own safaris. We would recommend using a Lodge safari as the guides are in communication with other guides and they advise each other where to go for the best animal sitings at the various waterholes. However, despite seeing lion tracks, we only actually saw one lion. Got the most amazing photos of a leopard chasing a young springbok. We should have made a note at the time of which animals we saw at each location but we were too excited taking photos." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia; 3n in Zimbabwe; 1n in South Africa
"Mushara Lodge review"
Slightly disappointing that the only excursions were back into Etosha. We self-drove. We did have the thrill of seeing a leopard on the way to Mushara, sitting right on the side of the road.
All animals listed as seen below, where seen in Etosha not Mushara." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
"Mushara Lodge review"
The most disappointing feature was the quality of the guiding which was below the standard experienced in Zim, Zambia Tanz and RSA
The guide was charming and v willing but added v little value to that of a driver." See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia

"Amazing Mushara"
Had a wedding anniversary and birthday here and the staff helped celebrate with flowers, candles and singing.
Food was delicious with a braai one evening in a magically lit boma with beautifully laid tables and again catered for vegetarian members really well. Also enjoyed sitting by the roaring fire in the lodge.
We had issues with our hire car whilst staying here and the staff could not have been more helpful in sorting a replacement. As we were without our car for a day we decided to take a guided safari from the lodge. So pleased we did. With Solomon’s (our guide) knowledge of the local wildlife in the eastern section of Etosha we spotted a leopard and a cheetah with 3 cubs. Wow.
Thank you Mushara for a memorable stay." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
"Probably the best place I have ever stayed at"
The BBQ on our second night was one that I will certainly not forget!" See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
