Siwandu Camp Description
The camp as a whole is comprised of two separate camps, North and South. North camp possessing 6 tents and South camp with 7 tents. In this way, there is never the feeling of having too many people around and each camp can provide a high level of seclusion. Both North and South Camp each have their own swimming pool, well stocked bar and dining area. No movement between camps is required as each has its own host, game viewing vehicles, jetty for boat safaris and walking guides.
Each of the 13 tents are very spacious and are elevated on wooden decks. The tented rooms all have a big verandah where one can sit back and marvel at the sights and sounds of the bush. All the tented rooms are spaced quite far apart to ensure privacy and all are situated along the lake shore. There are no fences and so animals wander freely through the camp. All the tented rooms have en suite bathrooms and open air hot-water showers.
