"Wonderful place to visit"
We loved our stay here! It was fantastic. We visited in August and amazingly had the place to ourselves. It was lovely. The whole experience was really well organised too. At some places, they ask what we want to do rather than give you advice about what would be the best activity for the day. That wasn't the case here.
Our guide was Kitty and she was really good. She knew lots about the animals, birds and plants (as you would expect from a guide) but managed to tell us more interesting stuff than most of our other guides.
The tents were great - no electricity, a toilet and shower ensuite out the back and a fantastic view over the salt plans.
We stayed two nights but wished we had been there for three. Can't wait to go back.
