Jacqueline the manager is very friendly and makes sure everything is perfect. Azeem is very attentive, the food is excellent, the camp very well maintained (we even had a “bathroom” under the stars) and the location is just beautiful - watching the sunset on a sand dune and the milky way in a sky full of stars is just breathtaking.
