What an amazing place filled with wonderful people

What an amazing place this is. This was our third time staying here and, as usual, we loved everything about it. We even found fellow Christian’s on the staff there who made us feel like family. In our opinion this is the best place we have stayed anywhere in Africa. It just suited all our needs and gave us (a group of 3) time to unwind. Thank you everyone at WHK. We are looking forward, already making plans, to seeing you again. God bless you.

A piece of heaven

This is a superb lodge in a superb albeit rather remote area. The facilities are outstanding and our guide Ryan was first class. It truly deserves 10 but for a difficult check out when the VAT was added to prices that were VAT included.
