Kirkman’s Kamp is just the most wonderful experience, 3 days we shall remember for many, many years to come and which surpassed any expecations we might have had. The accommodation was first class. We say the Big Five and a whole lot more within our first 24 hours and every game drive had its memorable moments.

Excellent accommodation with friendly, attentive and efficient staff. The safari personnel in particular were outstanding. Breakfast and lunch were very good but dinner left a little to be desired.
