"Ruckomechi Camp review"
As I recall there were no guides qualified to do walking safaris at the time we visited. It was good to be back on the Zambezi." See all these reviews: 11n in Zimbabwe; 6n in Malawi; 1n in Zambia
"A Zambezi dream"
Game viewing was excellent with the highlight of wild dog sightings. Elephants, my favourites, were in camp all the time, I loved it. The afternoon pontoon boat cruise with a visit of the carmine beeaters colony and the river crossing of an elephant family just in front of the boat will for ever stay in my heart.
Thank you, Carel, Juju, Belle, Gus, Gadrick and, above all, Rachel and Jeff to having made this safari one of my best ones" See all these reviews: 10n in Zimbabwe
"Ruckomechi Camp review"
Accommodation and food up to a good standard.
Staff were very helpful, professional and with good senses of humour.
We saw 3 wild dogs a number of times. Elephant plentiful and relaxed,close up of eland, lots of birds and the mixture of different enviroments made it most enjoyable for the 3 nights we stayed" See all these reviews: 13n in Zimbabwe
"Lacklustre experience at Ruckomechi"
Overall though we were very disappointed with the camp which had an odd, tense atmosphere. It felt poorly run versus other Wilderness camps we have stayed in and not a patch on Somalisa down at Hwange. Lots of niggly stuff and the guides / camp were very inflexible in the way they treated and interacted with guests.
In summary by no means terrible but much better places to go in Zimbabwe in our experience." See all these reviews: 8n in Zimbabwe
