Good bush feel at Crododile
A nice, well located camp, comfortable rooms, attentive staff and a good bush feel. Our room was very close to the waterhole. Our guide Stephen spotted a leopard drinking there while we were at dinner.
The walking was interesting but we question whether in October when walking time is limited by the heat there should be a long tea stop. However, that's just a minor thought and we had no other issues.

Whereas we preferred Chicoko (the tree-top rooms can't be matched), Crocodile has its own unique points and the tea we had whereas a group of elephants with a very young one passed 100m away from us will remain in our memory.
Again Alex and Batwill were brilliant.
Crocodile Bushcamp review
Walking-see above [Ed: these travellers commented: 'The walking was great; the guides were so knowledgeable about the ecology, plants, birds, insects as well as the antelopes, elephants etc. That was what I wanted from a walking safari; genuine natural history, not just big cats etc.' ]
We found this camp even more attractive; maybe because there is an even stronger sense of being genuinely not separated from the bush. There is something very special about lying in a hammock watching the Puku and Impala, then warthogs and finally elephants wandering past!

This couple from Italy were ‘extremely satisfied’ with their trip with us to Zambia – as noted on their overall trip review – but they didn’t leave any more detailed comments on the individual camps.
Crocodile Bushcamp review
Absolutely loved this camp. Again food fantastic and the staff lovely and welcoming. Our cook proudly showed us around his kitchen. It is difficult to believe such lovely food comes out of such primitive facilities. Again, bread to die for!
I particularly loved the hut we stayed in, lovely and comfortable. Peace and quiet except for the lions, hyenas, hippos, cicadas, barking puku.......!
Crocodile Bushcamp review
Excellent walk to Crocodile, Cameron was a super guide who made us feel safe in the bush.
Crocodile camp was welcoming. Food was exceptional, considering the facilities. The camp was well supplied with a good team of porters.
Rooms were clean and comfortable with plenty of hot water.
Crocodile is an amazing 'remote' experience.
You will be staggered by the logistics entailed in setting up Crocodile each season. It is a real priviledge to be able to stay here and there is a great backroom team of guys ready to make your stay special. Of the two walking camps perhaps this is shaded by Chikoko simply on the basis of game density in the immediate area, but anything can happen here.
Walking up or down the riverine pathways is a delight, but some decent footwear helps crossing the floodlplains once they start to dry out because there is not a square inch that has not been pot-holed by game.
I give top marks for facilities because apart from the necessary there are none - which is how a bushcamp should be. All remote camps have a range of natural history books and magazines to entertain those lazy mid-day moments - but be warned, they work you hard here - before you know it it is time for afternoon tea and off you go again.
We have always believed that acting responsibly is the only way to approach tourism and we're one of
the few companies to hold AITO's original coveted 5-star status for responsible tourism. It's a lead
that others are now following.
