Nakawa Community Campsite — Hotel in Southern Province

We are from Australia and riding bicycles across Southern Africa. We stopped here for the night. What an amazing, authentic African experience we had at an affordable price. The community village supports the preschool/junior school next door which teaches vulnerable disadvantaged kids from local villages. We booked on Booking.com and Cynthia was waiting for us. We stayed in a hut with beds, sheets, towels, electricity and a fan. There was a shared shower and flush toilet and wifi available. Cynthia cooked us a delicious evening meal which we ate by the camp fire. Cynthia gave us a tour of the school site and vegetable garden. It was all inspiring hearing about the volunteer teachers and helpers who run this school and give opportunities to the children. I highly recommend...
