THE EXTRAORDINARY
The Fort is a more reassuring structure for certain clients than those who might have a fear of tents. If you can book the Sultan Suite, you will stay in the Fort's main tower and enjoy absolutely unforgettable sunrises and sunsets, thanks to the elevated viewpoint over the savannah that this suite alone enjoys.
ETHICS
The private reserve of Onguma is home to and protects more than thirty different animal species, including kudus, giraffes, elands, hartebeests, impalas, and predators such as lions, cheetahs and leopards. The latest introduction was an entire family of black rhinos, which had been severely decimated in the past. Onguma has also launched a highly successful community farming project, named Oshivelo Farming, providing employment for 200 people.
