"Just an amazing experience, Cameron and Wendy make the place and if they ever move to another place we will follow them. Having their children with us also was just lovely. They made the place.
Water hole FANTASTIC. Food amazing. What a welcome to the safari experience. So lovely to lay in the pool watching the animals at the waterhole. Guides found us all the game we wanted, even baby rhino!!"

5 Dec 2007
"This was a beautiful place to relax after a few days of safari. We did not venture out of the place, staff just too kind, room just too lovely and pool amazing.
Not much action at the water hole but it was good to see the porcupine and Giraffe.
Fab food and comfortable lounge to chill with a gin and tonic and read their wonderful collection of books."

Nhoma Camp
"Nhoma Camp review"
3 nights
Arrived
7 Dec 2007
"LONG LONG drive, take Cd's and have some fun getting there like we did, great experience getting there and whist there.
Arno a great host and the villagers, well just a great experience. Scout tents, and I hope that some big wigs dont get hold of it and up grade everything, some how this is just perfect, would seem so wrong to be in 5 star accom when mixing with the Bushmen in their huts.
The hunting and gathering was fun, hot and fruitful, even managed after 4 hours to catch a spring hare!! The people are friendly and eager to show you their way of life. Long may they continue to LIVE."

Ghaub Guest Farm
"Ghaub Guest Farm review"
1 night
Arrived
10 Dec 2007
"We loved this stop off. The manager was just the best, we were the only two guests and made to feel like royalty.
Rooms very good, except we were getting used to having open air!! Food home cooked. The pool huge with great views.
It has recently changed hands we will be very interested in visiting it when it upgrades itself, as it is a little in the dark ages, but added to the experience."

Okonjima Bush Camp
"Okonjima Bush Camp review"
2 nights
Arrived
11 Dec 2007
"We wish we had come here first. Seemed all together a little false. Rooms very good, staff good, food was great though.
Lots of added costs, most places were inclusive which is a nice touch. Sun downer seemed like a chore to the guide, and at one stage it felt like a disney ride in our 4 wheel truck chasing leopards. Pity, probably a good place to start a holiday when you are non the wiser."
