Back to real nature, alazing

Fantastische locatie, prachtig uitzicht. Zeer vriendelijke gastvrouw en gastheer. Op de tenten zit een beetje sleet maar dat neem je er graag bij en uiteindelijk is alles perfect in orde. Je krijgt er zo veel voor in de plaats. De bedden zijn geweldig. Het eten is ruim voldoende, zelfs beetje te veel. Heel lekker klaargemaakt allemaal. De game drives waren biven onze verwachting. De gids deed er alles aan om ons een perfecte belevibg te geven

Traumhaftes Erlebnis

Wir waren 3 Nächte da und haben jede Sekunde genossen. Da das Camp direkt vor einem Wasserloch ist, konnte man zwischen den Game Drives noch mehr Tiere sehen. Der Guide Mike war super cool! Wir hatten alle unsere Wünsche bzgl Tiere gesagt und er hat sie uns alle gezeigt. Das Camp können wir wärmstens empfehlen, wenn man ein paar Abstriche bzgl Komfort machen kann. Das Essen war auch sehr lecker.

Einfaches aber uriges Zeltcamp

Anfahrtsweg inzwischen besser ausgeschildert,bei Ankunft gleich auf Trinkgeld hingewiesen was wir etwas unpassend empfanden.Gemeinschaftszelt etwas lieblos gestaltet wie auch die Mahlzeiten.Z. B. Mittagessen ein Brot mit Käse und Wurst.Pirschfahrten teilweise sehr lange über 3 Stunden , jedoch mit Sundowner Stop und grandiosen Tiersichtungen.Ausser Leopard alles mehrfach gesehen und wirklich aus allernächster Nähe. Zelthaus einfach mit Moskitonetz und sauber,nachts kein Licht, Taschenlampe notwendig

esperienza interessante nel bush.Nel complesso OK anche se il primo impatto piuttosto duro.Area non recintata e nessuna protezione dagli animali.I bungalow molto spartani .Luce minima fornita da un piccolissimo panello solare (l'equivalente di una pila) ( il ns era guasto ) La doccia esterna afficciente e calda .La ricarica delle pile nella hall quando è acceso il generatore in alcune ore diurne.No WiFi. Safari ottimi veramente bravo il ranger.Ci ritornerei
