"We had everything we needed, beautiful setting and area around the tent & around the lodge. We opted in for the dinner in the lodge, it was pricy, but had good choice and we even had a separate main course made for us as we are vegetarians. The manager was very friendly and had some nice short exchanges ..."

"It felt like a unique authentic African camping experience. The night sky was epic and the hot shower was a nice surprise. The campsite had been perfectly raked and great care was taken to make sure we had a good experience. Thank you to Rueben and Hansen for a great evening."
