Traveller Reviews

  • The best parts of our trip was Eagle Island Camp, everything about it.

    Corrine Tashnek, October 2009

  • It was interesting to see the Okavanga Delta. The delta was flooded which made for a real interesting habitat. However, there were few animals, and the safari routines were not that interesting. The camp was very comfortable, with good food, and a great bar for sundowners (written up by the New York Times as one of the top ten most romantic bars!). While we were there, an elephant got into the camp which made it interesting to move between our tent and the lodge - we enjoyed that.

    Terry McPhail, November 2008

  • A truly magical place - we had tent 12 which is the furthest from the main camp and were able to relax in the hammock on the deck watching the fish eagles come and go from their nests on the island opposite us. The tents, food, drink and main lodge were all excellent.

    Jeff Stanford, October 2008

  • We wouldn't have changed a thing. It was perfect. Very friendly staff with accomodations being nearly unbelievable! The individual suites blended in so perfectly with their surroundings but also had great air conditioning, making the experience the best of all worlds.

    Kelly Anderson, July 2008

  • It was good. A great place to end. They don't keep you as busy as Mala Mala and it would NOT be a good place to start off but fine place to end. It is luxurious for sure.
