Accommodation:The camp offers a traditional safari-under-canvas experience. Having started as a mobile safari operation, the true sense of an opulent mobile safari operation still exists in the camp, and offers a taste of early pioneering days. Each of the tents is spacious, with olive wood beds and en suite canvas bathrooms that have flushing toilets and hot showers, and outside each tent is a private hammock perfect for relaxing and afternoon siestas. read more
