Our Yellow Zebra Opinion
-
Good option
Owned by the Serena Hotel chain, this is their most luxurious tented camp. We tend to stay away from large hotel companies in favor of booking smaller properties, but this is a good camp nonetheless.
Activities
Game viewing
-
The game-viewing is good from May to June when the Great Migration passes close by, but the camp is a bit of a backwater through the rest of the year.
*This property is unfenced and located in a wildlife area, so large and potentially dangerous animals do pass through. If you opt to stay here, always be alert when walking around the camp and request for a member of staff to escort you if you have any concerns. Any guest is escorted after dark as a matter of course.
Facilities & Amenities
This camp is extremely comfortable, yet it somehow lacks the authenticity of many other tented camps.
The sixteen canvas guest tents are built on raised wooden decking and have sweeping views of the surrounding plains. They share a central meeting area which is beautifully furnished with antiques in a colonial style. There is a fantastic wooden deck outside where guests can sit and look out for any passing wildlife.
