Muchenje: We were definitely spoilt here since we were the only people in the camp. The setting is quite spectacular with a fantastic view over the flood plain below and our banda was also set next to a tributary valley to the floodplain down with herds of wildebeest and other herbivores made their way down to the water in the morning. Apart from the luxary of having the camp to ourselves, we could not have asked for more when on our first morning game drive we had a sighting of a pack of wild dogs taking down a juvenile sable antelope at the bottom of the escarpment underneath the camp. We also very much enjoyed the boat safari and were lucky enough to see a pair of African Skimmers, including their bizarre feeding pattern using their lower mandible (which is longer than the top one) to skim food out of the water while they were in flight. And of course all these small details were set in bigger picture of ellies and hippos and crocs All in all this was a great introduction to the delta area and we were very well looked after
