Good morning all

Has anyone done a bush or morning walk from Letaba recently? Which guides are leading the walks these day?

The last walks we did from Letaba were 2 years ago when we did both the morning walk and the afternoon bush walk.

Clearly we cannot wait to be that side of Kruger again

Sorry I have not.

But I have heard from non forum members who have recently gone on bush walks from Letaba. In their eyes Olifants and Letaba are the best camps from which to do bush walks :thumbs_up:

Hi fellow forumites

As part of our December KNP trip, we will be spending 2 nights in Letaba in 3 x BD3 bungalows. I'm not too familiar with Letaba camp and would like to know which BD3 units have the best location?

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks
Albie :thumbs_up:

Hi STORMA,

I have stayed in BD3. They are just east of the restaurant/cafe with a bit of grass between them and the path along the river.

They are all set a bit back, angled away from cafe. The closer you are to the cafe, the less privacy you get, but they are all very nice.

Just watch out for cheeky brave vervets.

Thanks for your help BB. You don't perhaps know which numbers they are on the Letaba Camp map?

Can't wait!

Hi Storma,

Have a look thought the The Accommodation Pics and I am sure you will find some great pics of those units.
Enjoy!

In the area around "D" Storma,

37 upwards. We stayed in about no 42. I don't know if they go all the way to 64.

Next week 13-16 November 2012 i`ll be in Letaba camp and looking forward to the soft call kur-kurr or kur-r-r-r-r-r-r-r of the Mourning Doves in the camp. I rate this equal to the Woodland Kingfisher.

We stayed in Letaba Camp family cottage 110 in September and I was very impressed! I will certainly go there again! Remember when I was a little boy my grandfather took me to Letab Camp, the river has changed so much!
