Travel reviews by Mrs K. from Gravesend

"Really good hotel - excellent location for the falls - staff excellent and professional - nice relaxed atmosphere, mini safari in the grounds re the roaming animals also nice to be able to go to the sister hotel the royal livingstone - the terrace bar in that hotel has excellent location on the river - spectacular sun sets transfers between hotels all free and prompt"

"Flight from Kasane all on time and excellent drive to camp - camp welcome wonderful all staff there to welcome us - intro to camp excellent bk showed us our suite and explained everything well - food and drinks excellent great choice every day - breakfast afternoon tea and dinner - service excellent - afternoon tea cakes were amazing

Safari drives were excellent - guide Fred was very knowledgeable and made sure we had plenty of opportunities to sit and watch the wildlife - excellent at tracking

Walking with elephants exprience is a must - an extremely informative emotional time - and clearly demonstrates the bond between Doug and Sandi - very moving

Baines camp felt you were very much part of the community- location felt nicely secluded and very private - rarely came across any other trucks on the drives

You need to appreciate all the wildlife and it’s not all about the big five"

"Once again excellent transfers via Mack air - excellent introduction to camp and room - they had prepared welcome brunch for us and then afternoon tea before our 1st drive - guide Leopard was again exceptional really knew his area ensured we had the best views for pictures although this area - was a lot busier for other trucks - on some occasions very busy and a bit disappointing although we always enjoyed the drives and the sundowner locations

The camp was very comfortable and in a wonderful location on the river - you could sit by the pool and watch the elephants giraffes land warthogs.The food here was again wasexcellent quality although there wasn’t a choice in the evening - only one option of starter and main but it wasn’t a problem just an observation- the breakfast,brunch and afternoon tea were superb and the bar always open - all the staff were extremely friendly and professional and made you feel most welcome and relaxed - once again excellent laundry service - you really don’t need to take much with you"
