The tents are spread out over a large area with many shade trees. There are comfortable sitting areas, with a small library and interesting wildlife artefacts. There are hides at both ends of the camp, where you can sit and watch the game pass by all day long.


Lounge.. with a big visitor!

The dining and lounge tents are under Acacias and Sycamore Figs overlooking the dry river bed which is used by game as a corridor, so that guests can enjoy the game viewing even while having lunch or relaxing. The romance of dining by candlelight to the sound of crickets and the occasional hyena or lion, is unforgettable.
