WELCOME TO

Somalisa Expeditions

HWANGE NATIONAL PARK

Overview

Nestled under an incredible grove of acacias, along the edge of a seasonal flood plain, Somalisa Expeditions is built in the style of a mobile camp and evokes a safari experience from a bygone era, with exceptional wildlife found in the area.

Rooms

The camp has six meru-style tents built on raised platforms with views across the savanna. The bedroom area has canvas walls and is decorated with quality teak furniture, whilst the bathroom area has more an open-air feel, but is well appointed with indoor and outdoor showers and all the amenities needed for a more than comfortable stay. There is a family room which has two bedrooms connected by a wooden deck.

Facilities

Somalisa Expeditions' main area includes a lounge and shared dining area on raised decking. The outside campfire area leads down to the pool, beyond which is what was the camp’s original pool, now converted to a waterhole for elephants. The camp also has a waterhole on the vlei in front of camp which is frequently visited by a range of wildlife.

There is a large choice of activities included: guided walks lead by qualified and passionate guides, game drives and night drives and local community visits. There is also the opportunity to sleep under Africa’s canopy of stars in a treehouse-style sleep-out built within an acacia tree.

Our thoughts

"A great little camp that does not disappoint on any level, we love the ‘make your own’ pizza oven lunches."

"The holiday was absolutely fantastic. Saw all the big 5 except rhinos.The accommodation was top class (lovely big beds), the people who staffed it were so friendly, guides were so knowledgeable, you really felt they wanted you to visit their country. We did a helicopter tour over Victoria falls, which were awe inspiring - another highlight of the holiday. All the transfers were smooth and efficient and this reduced any stress in the holiday, loved the small plane hops between camps in Botswana. We had an unforgettable holiday and will be boring our friends and family with it for months. Thanks for your help in organising this wonderful holiday. "

" We had a wonderful time! We loved the journey and whole experience on Rovos Rail from Pretoria to Vic Falls. We especially enjoyed Victoria Falls and the wildlife in the grounds of the hotel! We liked Mauritius alot. "

"We had a FABULOUS time. Even my husband, who was not keen on going, enjoyed the trip! We saw the Big 5 as well as many other animals. The vulture feeding at the Victoria Falls Safari Lodge was well worth watching. It is part of a foundation to keep these birds from becoming endangered. It was a great trip and my family loved it. Thank you so very much for all your help in making the trip a reality for us!!!"
