Fodor's Expert Review Siwandu

In the middle of the riverine bush on the banks of Lake Nzerakera, this luxuriously appointed camp has become a real gem in the park. With a stellar location, renowned guides, and beautiful tents evenly divided over two camps, this is authentic African safari at it's most delightful. Built on wooden platforms, the open-sided spacious tents blend in graciously with the surrounding wilderness. King-size beds are tastefully decorated in creams, browns, and whites, and en suite bathrooms with his-and-her brass hand basins and open-air hot-water showers overlook the bush. Activities are plentiful, highlights being the river cruise, bush walks, and relaxing by the swimming pool. At night the camp takes on a fairy-tale atmosphere when it's lit by dozens of softly glowing gas lanterns.
