    The location was very close to the safari which was great as it meant a slightly less early start! The campfire and atmosphere was very nice and the guided walk was quite funny and interesting.

  • What is the difference in between Mahoora premium tent, premium tent and elite tent? Why is Mahoora premium tent much cheaper?

    Mahoora Elite tent is spacious than the Premium tents. That's why the rate is also different from each. But now we don't have that difference.
