Zambezi Mubala Camp

Our group stayed for one night only in the pre erected tents. This is truly a beautiful setting in serene surroundings. Friendly and accommodating staff. The tents offer all you need for a self catering stay. The tents were clean, with enough warm water. The bedding and towels are in need of replacing. I fully understand that Covid and the lack of tourists are the main reason for this. It was not great to see worn-out towels and linen to the degree were you felt uncomfortable using it. This was our only gripe. It feels as if you are staying in a massive garden in the middle of nature. If it was not for the surrounds, I would have to give a lower rating.

Our family had a wonderful time here! While my son in law was out tiger fishing on the Zambezi, my daughter, granddaughters & I enjoyed a sun downer boat cruise one afternoon, birding around the pool another, and on a third day we went on a 3 hour birding cruise. All activities were arranged by the lodge, as well as airport transfers. The guides were fantastic. The manageress couldn't have been more helpful! The tents were clean and comfortable. The food was good, although the lunch/dinner menu is a bit limited.

We were staying elsewhere and made a booking with Katharina to do a birding trip from Mubala. From the minute we arrived, much earlier than booked, to the time we left after sunset we were treated like full time guests by all the staff. Lunch was superb, drinks cold, and possibly one of the highlights of our 6-week trip through Namibia and Botswana was the birding trip on the Zambezi River with Jimmy, the guide. Thank you, the staff of Mubala, for a wonderful experience, our next booking in the area will be with you.
