Onguma Tree Top Camp Reviews
“Only four luxury tents built in the trees, combined with solid wooden walkways. A delicious breakfast (buffet and order eggs). Delighted lunches an amazing good three course menu’s. As you’re looking for the ultimate tranquility consisting of relaxation by enjoying peace and quiet, beautiful views of the waterhole and wonderful food: this is the place. Especially the rational between costs and what you get for the money makes this place a ten out of ten” – caroandpiet P
“We spent 3 nights at treetop camp and it was just amazing. To start off with, the staff were friendly and helpful and the food was so delicious and prepared with such care. It is absolutely beautiful there and we spent a lot of time looking out at the view and all the animals that came to drink at the waterhole. Was so wonderful to be able to sleep with the tent open. It was a special and unique experience and we didn’t want to leave!” – Nabsy
“Lovely food, friendly staff, with a view of a waterhole, beautiful accommodation, very close to nature. I understand they are going to rebuild the accommodation to make the rooms larger. The waterhole is a bit choked with growth and I think they intend to dredge it a bit.” – ELN53
