Hallo Fomis,
nachdem der gute Dan von Mashi- Safaris nun wohl leider endgültig nicht mehr zur Verfügung steht habe ich untenstehende Mail vom Mukolo Camp, wo er wohl die letzte Zeit gelebt hat, erhalten:
Mukolo Camp New Ventures
Dear all
From 01 OCTOBER 2023 we will be ready to offer the following adventures to our guests who like adventure and something different.
We are offering 1 night sleep over trips on an island on the Kwando River to start with. Should this become a popular event we will consider extending the 1 night to longer
The tour will depart at 10h00 from Mukolo Camp .
Lite lunch/picnic on the river including soft drinks, wine and beer.
Arrive late afternoon at the island to pitch camp. Refreshments will be available.
Dinner will be prepared on open fire/gas (weather permitted). Wine, beer or drinks will be served with dinner .
Next morning the guests will wake up with coffee or tea and include an activity ie walk around the island or short cruise and return to base camp for a hearty breakfast.
After breakfast we will return to Mukolo Camp to disembark around mid morning.
We will provide safe parking and electricity (for camping fridge) at Mukolo Camp while guests are out camping. (Parking area)
Accommodation (camping or cabins) is available at Mukolo Camp. We offer meals on a pre booked basis. Fixed buffet menu available. This must be booked separately from the overnight island excursion. Prices as per existing price structure.
Non resident guests can also book for the overnight experience and leave their vehicle in our parking area at no additional charge.
We require a min of 2 pax per trip and a max of 6 pax. Surcharge of N$900 payable if the group is smaller than 3 pax unless the trip can be combined with another group to make up the numbers.
