Check-Ins

small parking. next to bisti creek.

note: the bridge right north to the parking seems very weak and may give way any time.

the road from the south is better.

Excellente taller, specially for big rigs.
he helped us with many problems
Good and fair price

Place is open, services as described. 170 pp and 220 for the camper.

Everything ok. Check the documents and they review inside the car.

Todo ok. Chequean los documentos y revisan el interior del auto.

Stayed at the small, free parking lot at the end of Forsyth Park across from the health food store. No signs limiting overnight parking, no time limits. Stayed 2 nights without a problem. Some local traffic, gets busy with parking cars about 6a with joggers. Great spot to enjoy relaxing park and walking Savannah.

Wow! Honestly, this is so worth the visit, the owners are incredibly friendly. They have one cabin right next to the first two waterfalls which you can stay in, there is electricity but the windows aren't covered in any way so I'd recommend pitching a tent inside or the mozies will feast on you. The walk to see all 7 waterfalls is really enjoyable, 1-5 are very easy then to get to 6+7 it's abit of a jungle scramble. You can swim in most of the pools although one is too dangerous. Cannot recommend this highly enough, a truly great experience.
We camped in the car park which was no problem, there are toilets nearby and the owners brought us some tasty prawn rice in the evening! $10 for camping 2 people, entrance to the falls and parking while we walked.

Beautiful beach! Clean and safe beach and parking area. Friendly staff at kiosk on the way in. Very clean modern bathrooms with outdoor showers. Myself and two others small rig campers were here last night. No one bothered us. Road is very easy access. Pets not allowed on beach but okay in parking area. Hillsides provide good shielding from wind and no bugs.

wonderfull, very clean and nice, everything as previously posted.
only sad thing: Restaurant permanently closed as from 1st of january 2019 onwards, que pena.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDABLE!

Still open and serving up clean water. Friendly service. Nice long hose for RVs.

15 rooms in bungalows, run by two Portuguese men, about 1km away from the beach. I paid 12.000CFA for the room (although the first price I heard was 15.000CFA), breakfast included. It's possibly the only source of lunch & dinner in the village. Lunch was 5.000CFA, dinner (soup, they will refill your bowl) was 1.000CFA. Electricity from the generator morning, lunchtime and evening until midnight.

Quait spot over the restaurant, free wifi, clean toilet and shower.

Small place in a corner of dead end ripio bit so quiet and far from ruta 5. You can continu the ripio 1km more and find the rio and nice place too.

Great for all kind of equipment. Bought spares for our Engel fridge. Nowhere else available.

The best in the business! These guys are friendly, helpful and honest. All questions are welcomed and answered thoroughly. Great advice from people who have been there and done that. Repairs and upgrades are done well.

Great place, organized camping with a lot of space for motorhomes, RV, camper and camping. Good location, very quiet, animals, fresh vegetables and fruits. Facilities water, electricity, wi-fi, hot shower, very clean.

lo mismo precio. 40bol por coche lá travessia.

quedamos dos noches. tranquilo, silencioso, seguro y bien cerca del lago. hace frio em lá noche.
bonitas paisagens

no havia nadie para preguntar entonces pegamos água del caño. potable

storage extérieur pour 170 dollars pour un mois

Gerardo is the local phys-Ed school teacher and fixes bikes as a side-job. He lives in the house in the backyard of Niponino café and his workshop there. He’s very friendly and will help you with flats, broken spokes, tires and any general repairs. There is no bike store in town, but Gerardo has quite a lot of stuff available. Alternatively, you can have parts sent to you from the bike store in El Calafate.

No issues today... drove from Ocosingo to Palenque without any trouble. What a beautiful part of the world!
A few topes and the road is rough in spots but not as bad as some overlanders would have you believe!

We got the fan of our Fiat Ducato repaired at Roberto‘s place. We can confirm all comments below. Don‘t expect „local prices“, expect around PYG 100‘000 per working hour + price of any spare parts.

Sergio is super helpful! Even if he cannot solve your problem he will offer help and guidance. We felt we could easily trust him and his staff. fixed a few minor leaks and asked for a very fair price.
Definitely recommended!!

Small garage run by a really friendly guy named Ivan. He only speaks Spanish.

He drove out to the YPF on ruta 8 to check out our truck which was acting up, and then also did an oil change for us - 500 pesos total.

Quiet rest spot among cacti and rocks. You don't need 4x4 to get here. There is also a rock with a large chunk missing which is good for a fire, retaining heat or cooking. Stayed in the area few times. Safe, quiet and few people can see you from the highway. Highly recommended if you are tired and need to pull off.

2 minutes off the highway. There is some washboard road but you do not need 4x4 to get there. There is a sign at the beginning for "geoturismo la bocana". 500 ft south of mile marker 171 on west side of the highway. Not sure about the one on the east side of the highway. Good pull off stop where you won't be seen. Can fit about one car and tent in the clearing.

we stopped on the way from kampala to fort portal for an overnight stay! for the rooms they have new rates!
54 000 single room (two people possible) without breakfast! 65 000 with breakfast for one person! double room was around 80 000 but i' am not sure! we did camping for 10.000 for two person in our roof top tent! they have plenty space also for bigger cars! grassy area for tents! secure parking if you stay in the room!
we got food in the restaurant still about 9 pm

Filled up. It’s our Cadac bottles 2 x 3kg for 20,000TSh. Done and dusted in 15 minutes. About 5 minutes honking the horn to get attention. Top service!

The road from Axum to Gonder is very isolated, probably you will be the only traveler on it. It climbs a lot of beautiful mountains. There is no one straight. It's all perfect pavement road, except 40kms between Debark and Zarema, where it's gravel and very narrow. I suggest don't do it during raining season: some rocks can fall on the road and block you. Enjoy it!

Ps only gas station is in Debark, but gas not guarantee anyway

great place, they now have a single shower and bathroom, still working round about so a bit of a building site. Also water/power/dump. Got involved with a couple we met previously in Baja & painted the bakery among other things. They have about 70 kids at the moment & appear very committed & worth helping.
please remember when you come here that the home is funded by donation not by the government, they have to bring the water you use by truck, electricity has to be paid for, trash has to be removed, all this costs!
