Simply put, it's paradise. The accommodations, the food, the staff. And the hippos in the river below the bungalow's terrace.

“Simply amazing !!!”
Everything !!! We had a treehouse which was decorated to the highest standard . The room was stunning , huge bathroom and fantastic deck to sit and watch the hippos that played right in front of our room . The staff were so friendly and the food out of this world ! I have a lactose intolerance and this was no problem for the chef . The food we had looked like it was prepared in a Michelin star restaurant .

“Great experience, however just limited time”
The location at the river was great and the river was very small there, no boat disturbed. The food overall was great and the staff very nice.

“Perfect riverside setting.”
Boat trip seeing hippos and fish eagle in a beautiful setting at sunset. Cabin by waters edge very special with hippos interrupting the night with sounds of territorial dispute.

“Monkeys swooping in at breakfast and hippos in the river as we sipped our breakfast coffee”
Remote and peaceful lodge right on the river, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the bush; lovely gregarious host

We loved our stay at Camp Kwando! The tented rooms were awesome and we loved the eco friendly nature of the place. It also never felt too busy either. They also helped arranged a private game drive for us when no one else was going, we paid a bit more but they helped make it possible! The bar area was a great place to unwind at night with the fire lit and candles dotted around listening to the hippos on the river (take earplugs so they dont keep you awake at night). Our favourite thing was the food, an incredible three course meal every night with the chef greeting us each day. As a vegetarian I had special meals cooked and they were amazing! 5* food in an incredible setting.

“I wanted my child to experience what the Kwando River and area was like. Camp Kwando lived up that.”
The location was what we had hoped for. The accommodation and position of the unit was great. The staff and activities offered were what we expected.
