Doro Nawas
"Doro Nawas review"
2 nights
Arrived
2 May 2023
"Our least favourite accomodation, having already stayed at a Wilderness site there was a big difference in our experiences.
The staff were considerably less friendly and the site was more tatty (eg plug sockets hanging off walls in bedroom)
Sleeping under the stars was amazing though, and our tour guide here was brilliant"

The site, room and food weren't great, but staying in the national park was worth it"

"Beautiful room and site.
Great opportunity to see the big cats we hadn't seen already.
Had an issue with a guide/drive here, but we mentioned this on a feedback form and the manager came and spoke to us about this directly to resolve this"
