We really liked Toka Leya , Livingstone - the team , food , complimentary activities and general atmosphere. The location right on the river was a real plus. Good air conditioning was appreciated though was not quite required at night when it got close to freezing - this was in May but good for the afternoons.
The fingers of the river goes right under the tent - at least , the one we were in. It was very nice that they put us in a ' family ' one though it was only 2 of us.
Food may have been the best among the camps or was I still jet lagged??

King's Pool was OK for us...giant hippos by our tent made things rather exciting

Just remember to heed instructions to stay on the walkways at all camps

I did not enjoy J'burg.
