Nous avions voulu essayer l’expérience d’un campement. Très bien implanté , un personnel très accueillant et attentionné.

Le bruit de la pluie la nuit qui tapait sur quelque chose de métallique qui a perturbé notre sommeil.

We had an exceptional time. The staff were friendly and so helpful. When we first booked in, our wifi didn't work in the room so they helped us move rooms with no issue. What a wonderful stay.

"Very Good"

7.0

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Matatane Camp, which matched its description perfectly, offered a very pleasant and relaxing setting, had very friendly staff, and served quite good food as part of the all-inclusive package.

While we have no negative comments about the Camp itself, we were quite disappointed with the game drive organization: despite contacting the establishment several weeks in advance to book excursions without receiving any response, we found upon arrival that no game drives were available, and although the staff eventually managed to secure one for us, we were disappointed not to be able to do more as this was the primary purpose of our visit.
