  Excellent safari experience - Wonderful experience. Rapha and Weston were fabulous guides and we saw a lot of wildlife and learnt a lot. The lodge is beautifully done and food plentiful and good. We... read more drove off road there from Lusaka (4WD and local knowledge essential) and actually saw a male lion on the way into the park which just set the tone for the whole experience of being a long way from the city! It was my husband's birthday during our stay and David and the team went to town decorating the dining room, supplying a lovely cake and the staff singing Happy Birthday was beautiful, thank you! It was chillier than we anticipated in the early mornings and whilst they supply nice woolly blankets for the boat I would recommend plenty of layers and a warm hat too.

  A safari to remember and treasure.  - The service at Baines River Camp was second to none. A personal service that made us feel special. We stayed for 3 nights. From the moment we arrived we were... read more given activities and it didn't stop until we left.
We went on 3 drives in the National Park. Just my wife and I with a spotter and driver. They did everything they could to find the animals we wished to see. On the last day we managed to get close to a Leopard as well as seeing Hunting Dogs eat a kill. Jimmy and Gibs were very knowledgeable; they were brilliant. We also had 2 night drives and a fishing expedition. The sun downers were great!
Every morning we left the camp early by speed boat to reach the National Park. It was exhilarating, passing many Hippos and Crocodiles on the way. On the return journey we also saw Elephant and Cape Buffalo.
Every time we returned to camp Stephan, Zena and David were there to greet us.
The accommodation was spotless and the food delicious.
We travelled to the camp by plane, 12 seater, and were met by our driver.
I only have positives for the place, no negatives.
