Kwara Camp

Kwara Camp

"Kwara Camp review"

3 nights Arrived 2 Sep 2024
"Saw lots of amazing wildlife here. Rogers was a really great guide.

Food once again was lovely but we didn't particularly enjoy the group dining as we were fairly tired at the end of each day and would have preferred to just chill with family.

They could have been clearer as to the time we were meant to check out of our lodge - that would have avoided a bit of an incident with people waiting for the room."

Botswana Private Mobile Safari

Botswana Private Mobile Safari

"Botswana Private Mobile Safari review"

3 nights Arrived 5 Sep 2024
"We all thoroughly enjoyed this part of the trip Andrew was great company and a fantastic guide

Food all delicious (including the vegetarian option, which was much appreciated) and camp beds and tents were very comfortable Have some unforgettable moments from this bit of the trip particularly sundowner drinks next to hippos and the following evening watching a leopard in a tree !

Would repeat the mobile safari for a longer period next time and experience moving locations."

Ongava Lodge

Ongava Lodge

"Ongava Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 12 Aug 2018
"Location next to a watering hole was amazing. we saw rhinos and lions here in the evening and heard lions roaring throughout the night. The Ongava reserve safari was also amazing as we got pretty close to lions and elephants. The trip the next morning to Etosha we probably could have skipped as it was quite long and we were going to Etosha anyway. Probably would have preferred another the shorter tours round Ongava. Overall fantastic place and service."
