Email BenS - Allentown | 50-65 years of age | Experience level: over 5 safaris
Saw amazing wildlife each day of our 3 day stay. Kings Pool, Linyanti River, Wilderness Safaris
I like to fish - and the camp has a pontoon boat for river safaris - I believe generally evening river cruises....fishing rods all rigged and ready to go...doesn't take too much effort to catch something - and there are plenty of different types of fish to catch!
On land we saw hippos grazing (out of the water)....2 packs of wild dogs 18 in one and 8 in the other...successful hunts & stealing an impala carcass from a spotted hyena.....eagle owls, all sorts of hawks, eagles, bee eaters, king fishers, egrets, goliath heron, lion, elephant.
The green season makes viewing a little bit

more difficult - but the green color contrast and blossoms enhance the pictures....the private concession camp has the ability to bushwack off road and chase some sightings......not something that can be done in the national parks.The day and night time temperatures were really comfortable in early March. we were not really ever bothered by mosquitoes or any sort of bugs.
Was a great area to visit....would definitely go back if there were not so many other interesting places yet to visit in Africa!
We even got periodic cell service from Namibia across the river. I wouldnt count on this - but it was a nice surprise to be able to send/receive txts for a few minutes.

Feel free to email questions - and I can supply links to an online photo album.

I rated the scenic beauty lower than the other characteristics, just because it doesn't have the lushness and beauty of areas like Moremi and Chief's Island in particular.

In particular one of the best areas for herds of very large male elephant.
