Our stay at Pioneer Camp was beyond belief! I cannot recommend it highly enough--not only for the amazing animal viewing--but also for the warm and gracious staff. That, I think, is their crowning glory. Yes, the game drives in morning and evening allowed us to see the Big Five almost immediately; however, the care, friendliness, and attitude of everyone made us feel like a cherished guest in their home, from the knock on the door with coffee at 5 a.m., until the dinner and drinks at night.

Our ranger and tracker were very proactive in asking us what WE wanted to see--not that we cared, as everything was amazing. Additionally, they not only positioned the vehicle to get the best picture possible, but they also gave fantastic photographic tips/suggestions, which resulted in some fabulous photos.

My husband is already talking about a return visit, and we've only been back two weeks!

We spent part of our honeymoon at Londolozi and, thanks to the amazing staff, facilities and game drives, we had the best vacation of our lives. We stayed a couple nights at Varty Camp and a couple nights at Pioneer Camp. You can't go wrong with any of the camps but our room at the Pioneer Camp was THE nicest room that we have ever stayed in (room #1). We were blown away by how luxurious and spacious our residential building was along with how incredible the views were off the balcony.

Pioneer is more expensive and more private than Varty, but worth the expense for a special occasion. Varty was a busier camp, but still only 10 rooms so by no means crowded. If you want to have a couple cocktails with a few guests I would recommend Varty Camp; if you want to be secluded, then Pioneer. All the camps have the same high quality food; which was plentiful and delicious.

We are so very happy we chose Londolozi as we saw leopards and the big 5 every day. The rangers and trackers are also fantastic. Londolozi also has amongst the highest acreage so the best chance of seeing the most free roaming animals. We hope to get back again in a couple years.

A visit to Londolozi is a truly magnificent and unforgettable experience. My husband surprised me on our anniversary with a 4 day trip to this wilderness wonderland.

From the time we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly special and welcome. No request was too unreasonable - including my admittedly almost impossible request to view and photograph wild dog. I thought I would present them with a playful challenge :-)

My wish was their command, as our game ranger Mike and our tracker Freddy radioed the neighbouring parks to find the ever elusive wild dog. Singhita confirmed a sighting and the next day, with the teamwork between Mike, Freddy and the Singhita ranger and tracker, I was surprised and blessed to witness the painted dogs of Africa on a hunt.

Mike's keen eye for photography made sure we were perfectly positioned to get the best pics imaginable.

We will be back!!
