Set in the centre of Madakwe National Park, this has been the ideal spot from which to become one with the AFrican bush. The warmth of the welcome from all the staff, their concern for the welfare of each and every one of its guests, has been outstanding. Camp hostess Monica is there to greet us back from every drive and hear our excited revelations of what we have seen and experienced.
Our guide Jonny has totally exceeded our expectations of what a mere man can do and find in this alien and often difficult terrain. There is no small tree that Jonny can’t drive over (they would like to get rid of much of the thorny bushes that have taken over the savannah here.) Nor is there a flat tire he can’t change alone in 10 minutes flat on a huge safari truck!
My friend and colleague Jane Hurley (of Tarzan & Jane history - ask me about this...) and a South AFrican summed it up
“You will go to South Africa and Africa will steal your heart and never let it go.”
