Some hides (bunkers) are designed for four persons to stay overnight with a small kitchen, bunks and are air conditioned also WiFi.  Camera tripods on wheels with comfortable wheeled chairs are provided.  You are behind one-way glass and at ground level of the water holes that is illuminated.  At only 3 metres from visiting creatures, the view and photo opportunities are amazing but long lens are not needed!
