Safari Lifestyles View

Part of the previously named “Orient Express” group, this lodge leans very heavily towards high standards of service perhaps rather than a safari experience, although that does not take anything away from its activities.

The lodge sits in stunning surroundings offering only water based activities, its position ensures privacy in an area that is quite bereft of lodges. Aside from the camp being part of a huge group of global tourism they have definitely managed to keep it an intimate affair and do do take advantage of their location beautifully.
