Mombo Camp is beautifully situated overlooking the Delta. When we were there in late March, there was a shallow lake frequently traversed by herds of elephants overlooked by the main area of the camp, but that could change with the seasons. The accommodations are excellent, and the service is superior. Food is good. What sets Mombo apart from the other... More

Mombo Camp was extraordinary. The accommodation was outstanding with every need thought of. The service was friendly, always polite and obliging. Although the food is not a feature of such holidays, we found all meals of great quality. One afternoon I stayed in while the rest of the guests went on their afternoon game drive. It was one of the... More

We just returned from Little Mombo and could not have had a better experience. The camp staff took excellent care of us and the room was quite comfortable. Our guide was excellent and was able to track down a huge array of different animals for us to photograph. This was our fourth camp in Botswana and was definitely the best.

This was our second reserve and we loved the setting. The rooms were open to the wild and we heard hippos munching on the grasses at night. Loved that laundry is done daily. The best part about this camp was the animal sightings and their stories - magical. Disappointed in the food and I found the staff distant and poorly... More

I have to agree with Knowafrica (previous review) - the place is absolutely fantastic but the food is not great. We all agreed afterwards that this point needed improvement and was disappointing. However, the accommodation was beautiful and the game viewing outstanding. We stayed at Little Mombo with anothere couple and enjoyed our time otherwise. The Okavango is a beautiful... More

The setting is very good, the game viewing is great, the accommodation very luxurious and the food is poor - no it is actually horrible. After a wonderful trip to a number lodges in Botswana and South Africa, I have to say that the food at Mombo is the worst we had by far. Speaking to a number of our... More

This was my fourth visit to Mombo/Little Mombo - but the first as a family. We spent three magical nights over New Year at Little Mombo, taking over the whole camp. I have waited for years for all my children to be old enough to share 'the Mombo Experience' and, of course, it exceeded expectations at every level. If you... More

My husband ang I just returned from Mombo Dec 4th 2011. This was our 5th time at Mombo in 2.5 years. Needless to say, it NEVER disappoints and each game drive is always new and exciting. There is a certain "magic" at Mombo that is like nowhere else. We did Tanzania and the Sernegetti this past September and it was... More

We stayed at Little Mombo for three nights in November to celebrate our ten year anniversary. This was by far the best camp we visited even though all of the camps where we stayed were wonderful. First the staff: Graham and Claire INCREDIBLE.....cool under pressure, handled everything with grace and there sense of calm and humor make ones stay very... More

Had an exceptional two night visit to Little Mombo. Preferred the 3 tent arrangement here to main Mombo but either would be excellent. The hospitality with manager Graham could not have been better. He was very knowledgeable about the concession and always present to engage us. The game drives at Mombo were the best we had in the Delta. Cisco... More
