Company info

Myself love to do things in the very big garden. We love nature and most of all the beautiful trees and abundant bird life. Evenings are made for a sunset cruise on the lovely Okavango River!.

Property info

Mukuku Rest Camp is situated directly on the bank of the enchanting Okavango River. Unfortunately guest experience a situation where Google Maps shows that they have to drive a distance from Rundu through Angola for about 4 hours before reaching Mukuku Rest camp. This is not true. The drive from Rundu to Mukuku Rest Camp lasts only 45 minutes on the B8. Guest will experience the tranquillity and hospitality of Mukuku and the adjacent nature, with abundant bird life. Have a glimpse of Angola from your private balcony. ACTIVITIES: Row a wato, bird watching, boat trips, relax at the pool and it is safe to jog around.

Neighborhood info

By pre-arrangement guests can visit a traditional village or traditional dances at the local school. The local church can also be visited on Sundays and guest can experience the singing and dancing of religious songs. Nearby interesting places to visit are National Parks like the Popa Falls, Mahango Game Park and the Bwabwata Game Park.
