Members' reviews on MKOMAZI WILDERNESS RETREAT
It was expertly designed; from the viewpoints, to the mess area and the tent itself. Coming from the industry myself, I couldn’t help but take notes and wonder where many of the ideas had come from. It was a great source of inspiration for my own projects - and the same goes for the service.
Managers Savannah & Janush were a match made in heaven! On entering the camp, we were greeted by both with refreshments in hand and were given a brief tour of the camp. From this point on, we were wrapped in their warm blanket of care, accompanied by top quality service. The wider team were an extension of their leadership, which all contributed to an exceptional experience, where our every need was attended to - often before we ourselves, knew what it was we wanted.
The camp was located high up on a viewpoint which offered breathtaking views of the dramatic Mkomazi landscape; fit with mountains, flatlands and the dam, which attracted various herds of buffalo, giraffe & elephants to name a few - all taking it in turns for their time to drink, wash and play in the water. It meant that you could almost be forgiven for choosing to stay put in the camp with a pair of binoculars and let all the life come to you! We of course chose to jump in the 4x4 most days and throw ourselves deep in the action, and were fortunate enough to witness many special moments as a result.
A truly remarkable experience - thanks so much for all your efforts!
