Check-Ins

Nice place to sleep. We slept 5 nights, and it was quiet and calm. We feel safe, because it’s close to a hostel with 24h reception, and a big gas station with guard at night.

We spent 2 nights, one night in the tent and other inside the car, because the wind was very strong. The place is very quit, just some fisherman’s at the night, very nice view.

Very good hotel in an historical building. Very cheap.

All as previously described. Sadly still being let down by the ablutions. We had great showers - good pressure and plenty of hot water - but really not very clean at all. Such a shame as this would be a fabulous campsite otherwise. That said, it is probably still the best value for money in the area.
N$145pppn.

Lovely park, amazing views from the two shorter mirador loops, free entrance and camping for me. Highly recommended!

Small field with 6 towers in various ruined state. One tower is restored and now a cafe.

Supposedly the second biggest citadel in Iran - after Bam. You can climb the walls and wander around through town. People still live inside the citadel, it’s like walking through history. No entrance fee.

The owner of the Casa de Ciclistas in Trujillo has had a few guests stay over the last few years who have been targeted for robbery in this town. His advice is to have enough water and food so that you don’t have to stop here. No other towns in this region seem to have the same problem.

This is a great little spot not far from the Khwai North Gate. We didn‘t think we would find a place so close to the village of Khwai that was hidden, but we turned off onto a little side road, and then onto a little tiny loop off of that, and came across a spot perfect for one vehicle, as well as hidden and protected. There is wildlife in the area, so be diligent.

Level spots available but much of lot is a bit sloped. Scenic. Next to the water and next to the iOverlander site to the left (next to Skateboard park) The Skateboard site was blocked on New Year’s Eve and they told us we could park on this spot. Free and no time limit. Other campers were there.

We can confirm all the positives described by others. Nice, cosy place, clean bathrooms and kitchen, good WiFi, hammocks and two lovely cats 😀 We can also recommend surfing lessons given by Nando. Camping 5usd pp.

If it s windy, the place it’s good with ruins

Nice place, well maintained and clean. Next to the lake, great viewes. We paid 300 for 2 people and a 4x4.

very nice hostel stayed over the newyear for two nights parking next door for Moto 11 mil for 24hrs

180 per tent, 136 pppn, 220 for trailers, 315 for casa rodante, 370 for motorhomes. We have a Toyota Hiace cargo van & we were charged as trailer. All prices include electricity &
BBQ. Free until Xmas day. Really expensive after New Year for a municipal camping. Hot water, clean toilets, lots of shade, by the river, 10’ walking from the centro. Avoid Jan-Feb, gets really busy. No wifi.

In Puerto Adolfo López Mateos near to the Beach. Sandy area with some good restaurants. At the entrance there is a sign 10 Pesos/Person. But there was nobody at the kiosk, so we did'nt pay. I think it is because of off season. The toilets are very clean, get closed in the evening. 5 Pesos. The police came by and said it is o.K. to camp here.

Didn't find the place, but nearby fish terminal so crowded that bad overview; impossible to cross if misplaced.

Regularly equipped in nice surroundings, full of day visitors but only 3 stayed overnight.
Hot water showers have to be used one by one.

Spent the night here as other options in tamarindo were very expensive and not so nice.

Despite comments of theft and break-ins, we had no issues nor saw anything sketchy. However, we were here Jan 1st and it was a madhouse - people were camping all around us so that made us feel safe. We also slept in our vehicle. I’m not sure how it would be in off-season.

Disclaimer - there are no facilities here and people use the grounds as toilets as evident by toilet paper strewn about. No privacy to squat so you’ll have to find washrooms in town which is not difficult.

There’s additional camping (parking) slightly north on the beach beside a restaurant. They have a gated parking lot behind as well, we saw overlanders there. I assume they offer washrooms and security.

Key can be obtained from the adjacent Cobargo Motel after 10 am.

Large campground in the forest under high, shady trees. Big sites that can be shared between 3 or 4 cars if it is busy. Long drop toilet and fire places. Rain water container. Beautiful 300 meter boardwalk to waterfall. There are waterholes in the creek, but they require some rock climbing. Access via an excellent gravel road. Both park access and campground are free of charge. Apart from the boardwalk there are no other walks around the campground. No mobile reception.

Good place.
Common room good and clean
Bathroom clean.
5000 Pesos per pax
A few pine trees on the camp.

Big campsite, we had spot B2 and was a bit far from the ablutions, ablutions was ok but like in other national parks need some urgent TLC. Payed 515,50Pula for 2 persons for one night incl. park fee and entrance. We saw two Rhino’s but to far away to tell
if it was a white or black one. To expensive for what it is!

Big border. Lots of trucks. Everything is in one large building and is quite well organized and efficient. There is a bank and ATM (as well as a Forex) on the Rwanda side and a bank and ATM inside the Immigration building on the TZ side as well. We crossed on New Year’s Day, so it was very quiet. Traveling on a US passport, 7-day transit visa was $30USD and 7-day TIP was free.

Camping 25,000 TZS for two, camping in the large car park close to the quiet restaurant. Visa card accepted, but the machine wasn’t working. Very fast WiFi with long reach. Rooms and cottages 65,000 TZS for a double. Breakfast included with the campsite, which we didn’t discover until the next morning when we woke up - a nice surprise! Extra helpful and friendly staff. We were the only people on the whole property.

TOTALLY GROSS! Broken glass, trash, used toilet paper, the concrete building is one giant toilet inside AND OUT! Nowind protection for a tent under the trees. The trees are nice and if you have a VEHICLE and don't have to get out of it, it would be okay. But being on bicycles, this is one we definitely passed on. Disgusting!.

We ended up staying here two nights, the first night was 1/1/2019, on the 2nd we went to see the Penguins and then came back here for a second night. A big mattress is in here and it was actually pretty clean! Lots of cyclists names and dates, love the history!

There is no water close by but there is a water source 5.3 Km south. Also, no toilets.

Nice location. Some locals go there to drive off roads with their 4x4 otherwise very quiet place. Short drive to downtown and grocery stores.

Hostel is not that bad, quiet clean and good location.
The internet does not work in the 3rd flood.
It only works where the reception is or matrimonial room.
Staff is so unfriendly, it was the worst attention we got so far.
You can store bike in the garage free of charge.
30Soles for a room (2 people fits in a bed of 1'5)
40soles for matrimonial room.
Bathroom was fine but water was not really hot, it was warm.
