Accommodation
A different place to Amboseli with a more rustic feel but still a very pleasant place to stay. The food again was very good. The tented lodge was very comfortable and well maintained throughout and nicely set back into the surroundings. Again it was nice to rest and watch the myriad forms of wildlife that made their home in the camp with the Colobus troop a particular highlight. The jungle setting made some nights a bit lively in terms of the wildlife getting a bit raucous but this only added to the atmosphere. Service was excellent with the waiter anticipating your requests after a couple of days and the camp being happy to change circumstances to suit the itinerary of the holiday. Only slight downside was the distance from the lodgings to the reserve although this was a minor problem and there was still plenty to see on the way to the gate.
Very nice place to stay. The room was very comfortable and cool. The food was of a higher standard than I expected and was very good. The site was very pleasant and I enjoyed watching the wildlife that was present in the camp such as the monkeys and lizards. The service was very good and the staff courteous and friendly.
