This hippo was photographed in the Entabeni Game Reserve and he (or maybe she) would watch us for a few moments with nothing more than the ears, eyes and nose above the waterline, then slowly sink underwater for a short time. This process repeated until we left. For all I know, he (or she) is still in that waterhole going up and down!

Honeyguide Ranger Camp

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very large canvas tent with multiple rooms and a thatched roof. The bed was very comfortable and netted to keep out flying critters.The front balcony overlooked a savanna type landscape where animal viewing is certainly possible, though we only saw them on our game drive. Very tasty buffet options were provided at dinner and breakfast. There are two game drives per day, with the morning drive shortly after sunrise.The game drive was surprisingly eventful as we saw 6 young lions behaving quite playfully, including climbing into a tree and pulling each other down.
