Positive: Kapama Buffalo camp exceeded all expectations. It’s a small and more interment accommodation compared to their other camps on site. We stayed 3 nights, and managed to see the Big 5 and the Ugly 5 within our stay. Each game drive had no more than 6 in the vehicle which meant everyone had a side seat with a perfect view. While it’s obviously not guaranteed I found the team did everything possible to see all animals. Saying this, I do think we had the best guide - Ben. The wake up calls at 5am were made manageable when you have an amazing guide like Ben. And, an all inclusive stay made everything so easy - great food, awesome local wines.
Negative: My only feedback would be stop making coffee from the machine at the bar, the in-room coffee-pod machine makes it so much better lol the team is obviously not baristas.
Summary: The perfect safari stay

Positive: Idyllic location for game viewing. Staff and facilities were exceptional. We saw Elephant, Rhino, Zebra, and Giraffe just on our way in from the airport. Managed to see all of the ‘Big 5’ by the following morning ! Guides were exceptional. Food and service were outstanding. Not cheap but definitely well worth the money.
Negative: Nothing

Positive: Amazing stay at Kapama. Staff was awesome & food was fantastic. But of course, we were there to see the animals & were not disappointed. Although pricey, the rooms & everything included exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend.
Negative: Communication prior to stay could have been earlier & clearer. I got some specific instructions a day or two before our stay while we were already in transit. Once there, communication was good with the on site staff.
Summary: WOW. Loved our stay!
