Check-Ins

This YPFB was recommended by a local to us because it’s state-run. Good service!

Felt safe as a solo female traveler. Lots of grass for my two dingos. Flying J had a good selection of fruit and coffee machines. Gas prices were very reasonable. Cell service was 1-3 bars ATT 5G- I couldn’t refresh Instagram but could watch Netflix? Instagram: @KangaAndTheRu

Really beautiful spot on the river. Easy to get to with our 22" van. There is a boat ramp, so longer vehicles should be able to easily use that to turn around to exit. Several trains went by at night, so it wasn't exactly quiet. But all in all a nice place to boondock

very nice place. we stayed one night on the way to Grand Junktion.

Amazing place! Still 8.72 USD per persons. With our High Top Toyota Land Cruisers we were able to camp in the nice grassy camping area. The hot showers with good pressure were the best we had in a long time. Clean Toilets with fitting toilet seats and toilet paper (we come from Mexico so we really appreciate this). Nice swimmingpool, a pond with a croc. The owners were really extremely nice!! Free tea and coffee in the dining area and they cook very good food (better tell them in advance if you eat at the restaurant, as there is no menu, they just cook the same for everyone).
Use bug spray, in this whole area there are nasty botlass flies around that will bite you!

Nice green place. 10$ for tent. Person who collected money doesn't speak any English, not sure who that was.

The rock is big but one of us got out and facilitated. Our Promaster van cleared it, no problem. It was a beautiful spot. Highway noise and we heard a train go by once around 8p. Couldn’t hear the highway from inside the van. Beautiful creek beside the spot.

Looks like everyone was here during summer hehe
Well yes this is an awesome spot to stop and to camp inside away from the wind/rain and to get a few degrees more. Still clean in 2022! I think someone tried to sort of block the front door but… why? Let this living museum open :) (and clean!)

when only speaking english ask for Mauricio, he is the only english speaking working there full time. lightbulb change took 5mins

This was a great little camp spot right off the highway. It was pretty spacious. We camped at the base of one of the hills for the night enjoyed the scenery and the stars. It is perfect for an overnight. We had no trouble finding a place for our sprinter van.

Very nice spot, peaceful with a good lake view. Chatted with a local who said it was fine to stay overnight. Checked out the Port Colborne waterfront area first, but didn't get a good feel there, so moved on to this spot - very glad I did!

There were some comings and goings in the night - seems like it's a popular spot to come for a smoke. And an early morning boat launch. But no hassles.

Be aware that there are some spots of deep sand in the parking area, so best to stay on the hard-packed part.

Nothing special but a good and expensive options is you want to stay close to the city. But there aren’t a lot of options..

Showers are good and clean and the place looks nice.

Not a good experience for us, but still we got in Zanzibar!!
We paid 120 000 tsh with 2 bicycles and I'm sure we could pay definitely less... You have to keep going on negociation even if they said no, they will come back to you and accept your price!
A friend could do it for 40000 tsh with bicycle as well.

At 10am, they told us "the boat leaves in 30 min"
We left a 1pm (waiting 2hours in the boat) so annoying!!!

Good luck.

We highly recommend Sani Pass & Lesotho Private Tours to those who do not wish to put their own vehicle to the test driving up Sani Pass for a day visit to the highest pub in Africa (and it is a very serious test indeed!)
We’d have the vehicle to drive up Sani Pass … but we decided to do it with a guided tour … and we have NO regrets.
We selected Sani Pass & Lesotho Private Tours because first they were very fast and friendly responding, very accommodative and secondly they offered a „private tour“ at a very competitive rate. „Private“ meant just the two of us as passengers in a very comfortable vehicle, stopping whenever we wanted and a few other nice goodies.
Greg was an excellent, gentle driver and a very pleasant guide and companion for the day, giving us lots of information and handling all the administrative issues at the border controls.
As passengers, we could fully enjoy the drive and the breathtaking scenery and we have absolutely NO regrets we did this trip in this ‚softy’ version as passengers and not self-drive.

The location given is the standard pick-up point in Himeville (other pick-up points can be arranged)

This place has a stunning view but it comes with the noise of many different things. Locals blasting music, dropping their boats in the water and a ton of animal life (dogs/birds/fish)

Would stay here again and but I wouldn’t if you are sensitive to noises at night or you’re a light sleeper.

Not much to add. Did reserve a spot online but when I arrived 4 hrs later, still no confirmation. Talked to the Park Ranger, said it can take up to a day to get confirmed but they weren't worried about it. Very chill! I stayed in 10. You do hear noise from the factory but it was similar to wire noise to me. Barely heard trains. Good Verizon signal. A pretty spot.

Good place to get water. The fill is next to the air. We asked first and they said fine.

At the end of the escape-ramp is a platform/"balcony". Nice outlook, great sunrise. Very quiet. Fantastic!

End of 38 km hike to 7 lakes. If you stay in camping Casa de Piedra and have a few hours to kill, you can start a 4 km hike to one of the lakes from here (+ 4 km back, takes about two hours in total)

The route is shown on Maps.me as well, and the rangers know it of course. However, I think they don't maintain this trail often.

Nice spot for camping. quiet but during the night a bit windy. really nice restaurant 300m away. a bit expensive but they also have cheaper (from 5000 C) options.

Stayed the night. A few other cars in the lot but no TT or RVs. Quiet, slept well. Empty parking lot in the AM.

Parking with picnic zone to go to the Bufones de Pría. Place to spend the night in motorhome (no camping).

Beautiful and well-maintained campsite. Highly recommended! Paid 2200 pesos for 2 and our car. Very lovely owner. New and clean facilities: 2 spacious rooms with each a toilet, shower and sink (unfortunately, taking a shower results in a flood as the drain seems to be the highest point in both rooms).

Excellent campsite ! If you're coming from southern Mozambique you know how rare it is to have a seafront campsite. 90% of the campsites we saw/been in Moz are behind a dune or far from the beach, so enjoy thoroughly this one! 😅 Excellent shower, great pool, electricity at spots. Very unstable internet coverage with Vodacom. 600 MZN ppn.

not too far off the highway. large dirt parking areas with great views. free!

Cool spot to park for the day, very calm in low season but not completely dead. It's also a chill surf spot that looked beginners friendly.
We preferred to sleep at the nearby Laguna which is very calm and scenic, not far from there.

Simple, large, grassy field. Great for camping with any equipment. Easy to find paid 4,000 colon pppn with a 4x4 with rooftent.

Lovely little spot off the highway a few kms. Car camping , had a spot by the river. Awesome hot showers with roomy tiled shower room. Owners are really friendly and helpful.

Nice little pullout 50’ from the road. Decent views of the mountains all around. Flat. Couldn’t find much else in this stretch of road to camp at. It is over 22 miles from the main road (where the sign said no camping for 22 miles)

Pretty big lot. A few of us but not crowded. Good for a night.
