The rooms especially the bathrooms are specially designed and very very comfortable. The location is also so perfect. Thank you all the staff for their amazing hospitality.

"To all at the Elephant Gorge Camp
What a wonderful surprise we got when we arrived at the camp.
Have been to lots of camps, but this one has felt like a home and didn’t want to leave. Stayed for only one night but felt like I have been part of this camp for many years.
The rooms were excellent and out of this world. Very nice decor and sets in with the surrounding. A lot of thought and emotions have been put in the building this camp. All the staff were brilliant, courteous, and always there for you. My wishes are with all of them as they as they worked in a team, which made our experience extra ordinary. Special thanks to Tina who made this trip worthwhile with a days notice and all the arrangements that goes with it, to make our stay pleasant as possible. I hope they all made this a success."

"EGC another warm welcome from the team. Two days of R.R.R. Awesome. Our evening walk, welcome by a sundowner was beautiful, a little campfire with the KILI view was breathtaking. Amazingly organized! Our last evening was a great surprise for me. An amazingly set up of the BBQ by the pit fire was a beautiful set up. I wish I could show my pictures, but will have it organized. The team here makes your stay here very, very comfortable. They spoil you, which makes EGC a very special place. Tina and Team, keep it up! "
