Positive: We had a lovely stay at Pumba Water Lodge. The staff were amazing, super helpful and friendly. Mzee, our ranger, made our stay unforgettable, he is well versed in the bush and has great knowledge regarding the animals. We learnt a lot from him and he delivered great sightings. My partner was treated on his birthday, with heartfelt singing by the lodge personnel and he even received a delicious freshly baked cake with candles. It was truly a special treat. The food was really great and there was more than enough! Limeze and Mzee at the lodge really stood out and made us feel at home. Thank you everyone at Pumba for our amazing experience! We cannot wait to come visit again.
