Lagoon Camp

Lagoon Camp

"Lagoon Camp review"

4 nights Arrived 5 Jun 2022
"A good variety of wild animals including leopard, buffalo, elephant, ardwolf ,honey badger, owlet, water monitor lizzard, bat eared foxes and cievet cat.

The highlight at this camp was locating a pack of 8 wild dogs and followed some of them to their kill where they were feeding on a Kudu. From there we followed the alpha dog through dense vegetation to their ground level den where the alpha female dog was looking after her newly born pups. They were not on view.

Later that day we saw the dogs chasing wildebeest unsuccessfully."

Machaba Camp

Machaba Camp

"Machaba Camp review"

4 nights Arrived 9 Jun 2022
"Surprise bush meals added to our experience . A relaxing ambiance.

Mike our guide spotted a python on a branch .It made a good photo.

Usual wild animals also included ,crocodile, african wild cat ,dwarf mongoose and giant eagle owl.

Plenty sighting of lions some with their cubs. Leopard with water buck dinner.

Enjoyed the mokoro journey on the river and sighting the painted reed frogs. It was a lovely contrast to the boat trip we had at lagoon camp which we also thoroughly enjoyed as well as informative the wild game walk ."
