"Fun Camp in the Trees"
A lion had made a kill the morning we arrived. That night the hyenas came in and there was a battle to take the kill from the lion. Hyenas won. Lots of whooping and snarling. Jackals came to the feast as well." See all these reviews: 8n in Namibia

"Wonderful stay at Onguma Tree top camp"
The team were brilliant and we ate like kings.
Could have done with a few more days here!
Downside was we booked an evening game drive which was awful. Ranger started out by making the mistake of asking what animals we would like to see to make the perfect drive. we said Cheetah as we hadn't see any. He then spent the whole time trying to find cheetah getting more and more anxious and in the end we saw no game at all except the odd impala which we absolutely understand can happen but he should have made it more about the bush experience rather than ticking some animals. Should have stayed in the lodge." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia; 3n in Zimbabwe

"Onguma Tree Top Camp review"
The breakfast was very good but dinner was a bit boring, and we were offered Oryx on two consecutive nights - so we had fish instead. Food was mid-European! Why nothing Namibian, and this is a general comment for all the lodges - it’s all been a variation of ‘meat and two vegetables!’ Why haven’t they done some BBQs?
Because of the small size of Treetops (with only 4 rooms) guests generally ate together (for dinner and breakfast), which if there's a language barrier (as we found with some German guests) the meal can be a little 'strained' at times. we could have insisted we ate separately that could have been a bit rude."

"Rustic Lodge overlooking a waterhole"
The Camp is very well located close to the eastern gate of Etosha where we did self-drive game viewing. Chudob waterhole, in particular, provided numerous spectacular game viewing experiences - a kind of Garden of Eden location ! Etosha (like everywhere else we visited) had very few visitors.
We also had exclusive occupation of Tree Top Camp for two of our three nights there. Under the circumstances the staff could have been a bit more flexible and proactive. The open-fronted room was adequate other than for the absence of hot water." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"Still a wonderful camp"
All the staff here are very attentive and it is a wonderful place to relax.
Unfortunately we arrived just after torrential rains which had left the surrounding bush saturated, which affected the areas of the reserve that the sundowner drive could access, but this was still a very worthwhile activity" See all these reviews: 26n in Namibia

"Another amazing place"
Did and early morning drive into Etosha and a sundowner drive on the private reserve. Both were excellent and the latter gave a wonderful view of a cheetah with four young cubs." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia
