Overall level of Satisfaction

Tribes Overall: "Excellent"

Tribes Service: "Julie was brilliant and very patient as we wrestled with choices for our holiday. She was able to help us design a perfect holiday that met all of our hopes (exceeded them actually!)"

Guides: "Not applicable."

Social & Environmental Responsibility: "Excellent"

Accommodation

Shooting Star Lodge

Shooting Star was lovely - friendly, laid back, beautiful accommodation (nicer than Fumba actually!), good food (not fantastic), great location, nice bar area.

Fumba Beach Lodge

Fumba was another step up again in terms of quality, although we did start to lose the 'small friendly lodge' vibe we had enjoyed at Shooting Star. However, the candlelit meals in various locations were really amazing - as were the stars.
