Zimbabwe between 11 Jun 2014 and 20 Jul 2014
"excellent start to finish.slick well organised and no concerns at any point.
I liked having regular mail contact with nick hobbs who dealt with things well. the info about changed flight times was invaluable and meant we could re confirm and didnt miss the flight back to harare which would otherwise have happened so thanks for that!!"

"All good enjoyed all of it.
star map and telescope would be awesome as night sky amazing.
all good, guides interesting and well informed.
small points..on the transfer back to Vic falls it might be nice to stop in a village ( pre organised) for a cup of tea and see what local village life is like, also to know more about CAMPFIRE and other programmes to work with locals. Also rich westerners like us could contribute more to that eg by donating binos, or money to the childrens projects which are so crucial for the long term preservation of wild areas."

"Helpful staff who changed rooms so we could be next door to the younger members of the family. staff were v helpful with taxis etc and letting me use their internet when there was a flight problem. food pleasant pool area a boon after sight seeing. I like the location a bit away from the main tourist areas and we were happy to walk around."

The starlit bath was memorable and we saw wonderful wildlife moments..including elephants swimming across the river just in front of the camp
I would like to have had a star map perhaps,but this is a minor point.
also to say the transfers were good and the pilots personable and efficient which was reassuring!"
