Tafika

"A truly marvelous experience at Tafika!"

3 nights Arrived 3 Jun 2014
"Tafika was the best. We really liked the accommodations. The grass chalets were very comfortable and fun.

The entire staff were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. They made our stay at Tafika special. We would like to mention each by name but there were so many and we would not like to omit someone due to our poor memory. We like that we had several different guides. Each brought his own unique perspective to the game drives and walking safaris. Their knowledge and passion for their work made our experience the best ever!

The food at Tafika was as good or better then most of the best restaurants to which we've been. Rona and her staff worked magic in their kitchen.

Lena enjoyed the microlight flight so much that she did it twice!

John and Carol run a very smooth and efficient operation. Quite impressive! We also appreciated how much they assist and support the local village and its people."

Big Lagoon Camp

Big Lagoon Camp

"Creatively Remote."

2 nights Arrived 6 Jun 2014
"Even though Crocodile was so remote, the accommodations were very comfortable. The food was excellent and we were very impressed with the chef and the magic he did with very basic culinary tools.

The staff were very accommodating to our needs, even to supplying hot water on request.

Our guide, Brent, was extremely knowledgeable and made our walks very interesting and edifying."

Chongwe River Camp

Chongwe River Camp

"Chongwe River Camp review"

4 nights Arrived 10 Jun 2014
"Exellent location. The staff were friendly and accommodated all our needs. The tents were comfortable.

We very much enjoyed the river cruise as well as the canoeing. We saw a wide variety of game and even saw a pride of lions feeding on a kill.

Our guide, Sam, always asked what we wanted and always did his best to show us what we wanted to see.

The visit to the village was a unique experience, enhanced by conversations with the local councilman, the head teacher, and the local nurse/midwife. We gained a perspective that otherwise we would have missed."
