Highs & Lows
-
You get a camera from the hotel on your game drive to capture all your social moments.
-
Sundowner drinks in the middle of the bush.
-
The perfect spot to go see the big migration.
-
As it is a very small and intimate camp it is very exclusive and private.
-
The camp is located right on a river filled with hippos and crocodiles.
-
The camp was built around nature and around every tree, making every room unique and at one with nature.
-
During the night you will wake up several times by the sounds of the hippos from the river that are very active during this time. Which actually is a pretty special thing
-
To catch the best animal spotting you have to wake up very early from the super comfortable beds but the reward is always worth it!
