Exceptional experience. Staff were friendly & welcoming and really could not do enough for us. High standard of facilities. Luxury accommodation. Fantastic location on banks of Oliphant River. Animals able to wander through the property on their journey to/from the river. Our guide & tracker were highly skilled and so knowledgeable. Every day was different.
