    I thought our trip was great value for money considering the quality of the accommodation and food. The guide was also fantastic. A top trip!

    Hugh Edwards, U.S

    This visit was truly extraordinary. We saw all kinds of wildlife and enjoyed the company of a very mixed group. Siona lodge was well run, with good simple food and clean and comfortable rooms.
