At Kiba Point all your activities are totally exclusive.  Just you and your guide, meaning you can take things entirely at your own pace.

Our open-sided 4x4 vehicles are a great way of seeing things.  For covering a bit of distance when that's what's needed.  And of course there are times when they give you the best views, access and photgraphic opportunities.

But we like to retain sponteneity wherever we can.  Often the best way to see things, to avoid scattering animals from a lake shore, or spooking a herd of elephant as they feed their way through a stretch of lush grassland, is to hop down and quietly work our way into a good position on foot.

And the same goes for our boats.  Just being on the river - never mind the game - is a fantasic contrast to time spent in a vehicle.  Drifting silently down stream, gently spiralling in the current, watching the river banks unfold is hard to beat.

It was an honor to be the first into Kiba Point this season. We had a wonderful family adventure with our children.

Kiba Point has the extremes of luxury camping with a true sense of wild, every night!

But here again we like to take time to stop.  Creep carefully through paths in the thick riverine bush and you'll emerge - unseen - in magical secluded flood plains.  More often than not there are treats in store; vast flocks of great white pelicans fishing in dwindling pools, wallowing families of elephant socialising, prides of lion sleeping off a meal. 

And sometimes the best way to see game is to let it come to you.  Breakfast on a sand bank in Stigler's Gorge watching elusive monkey-hunting crowned eagles, and listening to shrill cires of Hyraxes as you dangle a hook in the water. 

Or lunch in the deep shade of palm trees, watching the comings and goings on a lake shore.  Half watching, half reading a book, and perhaps even dozing off.  

All in all, days at Kiba Point aren't about box ticking, or endless driving in search of the next animal.  It's a sense of gradual absorption in this corner of the natural world that we'd love you to feel.
