Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs K from Bury

"Sam is a wonderful host. He is helpful, entertaining and informative .

The accommodation is very comfortable but when we were there it was cold so people need to be aware they may need warm clothing.

The food served here is excellent and if you are the only residents eating that evening Sam keeps the conversation flowing. He is also very knowledgable about wine.

He appears to treat his staff very well and that ensures their loyalty."

"Although we were only there for one night we managed to get a good feel for the place.

Its a good place for walking, guided or unguided.

The accommodation is in luxury tents which are comfortable but whilst we were there the rock dassies were incredibly noisy at night which we saw as part of the experience but which some people may see as a problem if you were hoping for a quiet nights sleep .

The young manager and manageress were very friendly and welcoming.

The food was excellent.

Overall we had a good time here."

"Everything about this camp was wonderful. The roomswere excellent and as they are positioned around a floodlit waterhole there is always something to watch.

We were very lucky whilst we were there we saw elephants, rhinos, zebra, jackals, many many birds including african eagle owls and that was without leaving the camp.

What can one say about Etosha? It was everything we hoped it would be and with a lot of effort ,as the grasses were long making spotting difficult, we saw everything we came to see and a great deal more.

The only downside to this camp is the restaurant which is pretty basic but there is a choice so you can usually find something to eat but it would be better if you could just pay for what you ate rather than one price for all."

"From the minute you arrive at this camp you are made to feel at home. The young host and hostess work very hard to make everything perfect for your stay.

The food was wonderful and all the staff sing for you before you eat your evening meal its magical.

Its position just outside Etosha is perfect."

"This was probably our favourite lodge.

The road to the lodge was flooded when we got there but we were collected by boat and transferred with little fuss and a sense of humour.

The welcome , the decor, the position all put us at ease immediately.

We at all meals together with all guests and the owner Horst.

Wonderful experience."

"This was the least pleasant of our lodges. It was a little impersonal compared to the other lodges we had been to. We also felt that we were being pressured into taking the game drives and river cruises.

By the time we got here we had taken many cruises and game drives so had an idea what sort of price to expect to pay but were shocked to find that Lianhulu charged on average at least FIVE times what everybody else charged.

The lodge was beautiful and the food was good."

"This lodge had also been flooded and they were only just up and running when we got there.

The welcome here was second to none.

The gardens were beautiful and the rooms lovely.

We took a very informative river cruise.

The evening meal was served by the river and the table looked like it had been set for a wedding ...amazing"

"This was a lovely place to end our travels.

There are plenty of walks both easy and challenging and loads of wildlife.

The restaurant was good with plenty of choice."
