It was an amazing and extremely unique experience. There was no ‘light noise’ and for the first time in my life I was able to wake up and go to sleep based on sunrise and sunset. The many game drives were a highlight. The birds, mammals, reptiles and insects were so interesting. I saw so many things that I had never seen in the wild. KB’s knowledge of wildlife was vast and so appreciated. Jane and Precious prepared delicious meals.The staff kept me safe and it was a completely stress-free adventure. The rhythm of camp along with the sights and sounds of nature soothed my soul.
