Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs H from Bath

"A good welcome, and good food, and friendly staff"

"We are so pleased we stayed here. it was the dry season, so the waterhole was bursting with animals.

The facilities are fairly basic, but absolutely fine for what we needed, and very spacious

There was no hot water in our room, because when we tried to turn it on, it fused the whole chalet

The game viewing as we drove around was excellent."

"We stayed in the Tented Camp, which was luxurious and wonderful. Swimming in their little plunge pool while watching the animals at the waterhole.

We went on a morning walk with a guide, which was great fun, and well worth doing"

"Mundulea is pure Africa. It's a bush camp, and you spend all your time walking in the bush, tracking animals, seeing lots of animals, going to their amazing waterhole, sitting round the camp fire, and eating simple delicious food.

This is adventure, not luxury. Having said that, the tents are very well equipped, and the beds comfortable. The tents have outdoor bathrooms, which are open to the bush and all the animals.

The leopard in the camp was an extra attraction !"

"A wonderful welcome by a dedicated and very friendly team, with a family atmosphere.

The rooms overhanging the river are excellent - all different and all special

The sunset cruise was great

We spent an excellent day driving ourselves around Mahango Reserve, with loads of animals"

"An excellent lodge in a brilliant location.

We went on two sunset cruises and one game drive, all excellent.

We were right in the middle of a migration of 300 elephants as they crossed the river.

The managers and staff were all kind and thoughtful"

"We were pleased to be in a lodge that is outside the park, as it was easy to get to and generally more convenient. And next to the river. They have created a very special place, with lots of atmosphere

We loved the game drives - lions, leopard, elephants by the thousand, buffaloes, giraffes, many types of antelope, and lots more

The river cruises were totally brilliant, with large numbers of animals and birds

There are far more animals around in the dry season, when they all go to the river. But don't expect to see so much in the wet season.

The guides were very good."

"We went into Zimbabwe with low expectations, and were totally bowled over by Batonka. Absolute luxury, wonderful welcome, lovely staff, beautiful food, lovely environment, a real treat.

We went to Victoria Falls, which was great (but not so much water in the dry season) We loved going to the Lookout Cafe, overlooking the gorge, with crazy people doing bungee jumps.

All the people we met at Victoria falls were kind and welcoming. There are very few British visitors, which is a shame. Victoria Falls is really in a "bubble" in Zimbabwe, and is a great place for tourists to visit.

The taxis are cheap, if you don't fancy walking into town (one mile)"
