"Onguma Bush Camp review"
There was no game at the water hole other than impala.
We cannot comment on the activities as we drove ourselves around Etosha.
The food was excellent apart from the desserts at dinner, which could have come out of a packet from Iceland.
We thought this accommodation was very good value." See all these reviews: 26n in Namibia
"Onguma Bush Camp review"
Went on a night bush drive through their own game reserve with a great guide called Charles who had a great sense of humour and was a brilliant spotter seeing a small 3" owlet from 50 yards in the beam of his torch as we were driving. He was really disappointed that we saw no cats or rhino but he was entertaining, informative and found a number of smaller mammals for us including a bushbaby which was delightful.
He also gave us good advise on where the best places in Etosha were to see elephants and Lions and also what time of the day to visit these locations. We saw both elephant and lion at the places and times he suggested." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia

"Good choice for East Etosha"
Game drives a bit limited which may improve if,and when more land becomes available. A good base from which to explore East Etosha. Would recommend" See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia

"Onguma Bush Camp review"
The bar and lounge area more than made up for this, as did the resurant and the food. The staff were very friendly. Also the pool and garden area were attractive, unfortuately we didn't see any game at the waterhole as the rains had just started." See all these reviews: 20n in Namibia
"A very pleasant easygoing camp"

We felt very welcome here." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia; 6n in Botswana
"Chilling out at Onguma Bush Camp"
As with all the other lodges in Namibia, the staff were friendly, helpful and cheerful. This is an excellent place to chill out, sit by the pool, sit round the fire of an evening or watch the sun go down from the bar.
We ended up going into the park because Onguma's only game drive on their land was not until 4pm. So it might have been better if we had stayed at Namutoni. Having said that, we liked Onguma so much that this is a minor quibble." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia
