Michael D. Aug 2022

FHU grass campsite (water view)

Liked: Not sure how we can do it justice - everything was fantastic, from the moment we drove through the gate (after a long drive from Khwai): clean grassy and shady spaces with electricity and barbecue facilities, a deck and view over the river you would normally only see in much more expensive lodges, they also have their own waterhole right in front. Fantastic sunsets over the river. Very clean, hot water, internet, separate spaces for doing dishes and our own laundry, lovely pool. Anton and Amelia looked after us extremely well and made us feel very welcome, we had some car trouble and felt we had reached a safe haven. We definitely recommend booking the delicious dinner at least once or twice, depending on how long you stay - you would miss something otherwise. Great advise on anything we asked and lots of information, so we did not only leave well rested but also much more educated. Thank you to both Anton and Amelia for a fantastic experience, it was very hard to leave, and we very much hope to be back soon.

Disliked: Nothing, it was the perfect stay

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Michael, thank you for your lovely comments. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. When we see reviews like yours, it warms our hearts as we see that our hard work and attention to detail, including making our clients feel welcome all pays off in the end. We would love to have you and your wife visit with us again soon Kind regards Anton and Amelia

From Ngoma Gate, take the first road left and follow the road through Muchenje and Mabelle villages. Mwandi View is four kilometres before Kavimba village on the right-hand side of the road.

Local attractions

What lush land is this for getting out into the outdoors, to the local national parks and their hiking trails, or by river or vehicle into the depth of the local landscape. Bungee jumping, rafting, bush walks, drives and more are available to book on site; ask the Mwandi View team for details of what's on offer. The Ngoma gate and the entrance to Chobe National Park are about 18 kilometres to the north east. Chobe, Botswana's first national park and the third biggest in size, has four main areas (river, two marshes and arid hinterland) and is known for its high elephant population: around 50,000 wander here, possibly the biggest number in all of Africa. Also look out for cheetahs, hippos, jackals, giraffes, buffalo and thousands of birds.

Due to the intense heat, October is known as the 'suicide' month - there are many challenges associated with driving in thick sand during this month. Please bear this in mind when booking.
