Jackalberry Tented Camp

Bellissima esperienza, ma very wild. Struttura costruita intorno ad un albero, in cui sono presenti pochissime tende, all’interno di un parco in cui girano animali. L’esperienza è forte , ma molto molto bella. L’impatto è forte, ma lo rivivrei altre 100 volte. Suggeriamo questa avventura. Bravissime le guide che propongono esperienza davvero magiche.

The nature did not disappoint despite it being the dry season. The guides, Westie and Derek did an excellent job. In general it must be said that the staff were very friendly. HOWEVER, the lodge experience was certainly not what we expected, especially given their reputation and the cost. The food offered was absolutely mediocre. We had much better food in much cheaper options like Halali Camp in Etosha which is not a private sector operation! All credit to the poor chef who tried to present something attractive. However, there is no excuse for stale bread sticks, stale muesli, etc. The first evening’s beef stew was inedible, so tough! Our last evening saw the worst sirloin steak I have ever been served??? Our sleeping quarters could not be locked from the inside.???Those of our companions could not be locked from the outside??? Local management apologised that service, etc might not be up to usual standard as we were staying over the weekend and half the staff were away?? Our trip included more than ten lodges. The Jackalberry experience was the second worst, only beaten by Ngepi Lodge😩😩

We loved the place and the tents from the first sight and the wonderful staff made us a memorable stay. The boatscruise on the Linyanti was outstanding. Thank you to the Team of Jackalberry Tented Camp
