Ndhovu Safari Lodge

"Excellent location on riverbank"

2 nights Arrived 18 Oct 2010
"Whilst the location of the tents were excellent, we believe that they are rather dated now and therefore can no longer be classed as luxury as described in their brochure.

However any shortfall in expectations were compensated by the riverside location and "nightly grunting" from nearby hippo's."

Mazambala Island Lodge, Namibia (this camp has since closed)

"A real oasis of peace and tranquility"

2 nights Arrived 20 Oct 2010
"A beautiful island position with lovely views across the flood plain. The staff were exceedingly helpful and informative.

The game drive to Bwabwata NP will be remembered not just for the excellent game but for its scenic beauty. The island nature walk was also a lovely informative experience.

A place where we would love to return!"

Coast and Sandwich Harbour

"Sandwich Harbour"

28 Oct 2008 • All-day excursion

What a wonderful experience. This trip turned out to be the highlight of our holiday. Our guide Ernst was a pleasure to spend the day with. He was very informative and caring of the wild life and environment. It was a priviledge to be shown the wonderful bird life of the area and experience the spectacular "dune drive" - memory of which will last forever.
