Testimonial from Patti Rhymer

"We had fantastic wildlife viewing with my favorite being the leopard mom and her two cubs!"

Chiawa Camp was excellent.  The staff was wonderful and made the time there all the more memorable with all their creative mealtime arrangements such as a private dinner on the river.  We had one of the nicer tents with a view of the lagoon from our back deck.  In the afternoons, we saw herds of elephant, impalas and a variety of birds go by.  For our safari drives, they switched safari guides which we thought was a good idea so we got to go out with different guides.  We particularly liked their docking station to get on and off the vehicle!  and that they had a maximum of 4 in a vehicle.  We had fantastic wildlife viewing with my favorite being the leopard mom and her two cubs.  One was very curious and would come up to the vehicle till mom called him back and he bounded back to her.  We also saw several lions, several other leopards, beautiful kingfishers and so many safari animals and birds.

Tafika was very good.  The staff and owners were also wonderful as well as the safari guides.  Again, we like that there was a maximum of 4 in a vehicle.  We were not interested in doing a walking safari or riding bicycles although others in the camp did and enjoyed it…We particularly enjoyed seeing the large numbers of cranes fly in.
