Rafiki Safari Camp

Rafiki Safari Camp

10/10 Excellent
"This is an amazing hidden gem! The name "tents" underdescribes the facilities: these are beautiful cabins that would put some hotels to shame. And the cabins have private showers and bathrooms. The facility also has a very small pool. Sandi, the owner, is caring, the food is very good, and the tours in the Park with the Park rangers are informative and a great experience. I saw a lot of animals, including elefants, monkeys, antilopes and crocodiles, but I understand that I was lucky and it depends on the season. The Park is huge and outside of the dry season the animals hide more. Getting there takes some time due to the condition of the main streets. But there is major road construction and within a year it probably should be much faster to get there."
